Belka i Strelka: Lunnye priklyucheniya

This is a 2010 Russian film, but now it released in the English language. A 3D animation about the moon mission, but involves the human pets in the main parts. In the 60s, when the Soviet Union and the US competed in the space programme, a dog name Pushok from White House and two other dogs from Moscow set to meet on the moon, followed by to find mysterious events. Finding a solution for it and returning back to earth is what this film is about.

First of all, this film is for little kids. The teenagers and the grownups would find it stupid, at least some of the parts. But they are not the target audience, so I feel sorry for rating it low. This is around 70 minutes long, that mean short and fast. The animation was okay kind, and so the story. Definitely not anywhere close to Hollywood or the rest of the European animation, but overall an acceptable flick. So I recommend it particularly for the below 9 kids.

5/10

No surprises in this 3D entertainment for tinies

After some hi jinx on the ground with the lovable animal leads arriving at the space station, two space probes head for the moon, our heroic animal duo competing with the banana fueled monkey astronaut. There the puppy lead encounters his space hero dog dad and a little green man, who rescues him with his sticky tongue.

The plot and imagery are unsurprising. Their best concept is a fat very Russian cat than manages to channel Oscar Homolka.

This proves to be a children's toon sequel with not too much to recommend it to big people.

An animated spin-off to the movie Space Dogs and regardless of whether you haven't watched the previous film it won't make much key difference.

The premise is a simple cakewalk and the specific target audience is only for children ranging 7+ though some private jokes are discreet in a frolic way for kids.

The story begins where it left, somewhere around 1989 when Cold War was in the demise.

The animation is better from the previous one however, looked like early 2000s toy-story one.

The dialogues were plain and humorous at times, the voice-overs for the certain characters like the Fifi (poodle) and Chip (monkey) were interesting to willingly give a giggle. I believe Belka voice was performed by Alicia Silverstone and Strelka by Ashlee Simpson.

The message to manifest kids is loyal friendship, family commitment, effective teamwork and mutual cooperation.

Only recommended for kids and family watch as mentioned overall, a decent flick for the franchise.
