Leo

This movie is great for the whole family. It is relatable to kids and adults. The music may not be like some Disney movies, but each song is original, entertaining, and not overly drawn out or overdone. The movie tries to incorporate current topics, trends and technology. It incorporates multicultural, ethnic and generational aspects. It also brings to light many issues that may be sensitive to kids of all ages. This includes issues like bullying, class clowns, popularity, ADHD, where do babies come from, etc. The kid actors do a nice job, including the singing. The movie is a little long compared to many animated movies, but it's okay since the movie keeps you engaged from start to finish.

Anytime you have Adam Sandler involved in a movie...It's "Worth The Watch". This is a movie I imagine, I would've loved as a kid. It's a very simplistic story line with simple, dry-humor that'll make almost any kid laugh. This is film you'll be wanting to get the family together for on movie night. As usual, Sandler came with many friends and family members from last movies such as ( Bill Burr, Sadie Sandler(Daughter), Sunny Sandler(Daughter), Jackie Sandler(Wife), Jo Koy and Jason Alexander ). All in all, the animations were clean, the script was simple but well out together. This is a movie I will definitely re watch with a niece or nephew over time. Thank you for another classic Adam Sandler!

There's not really anything bad I could say about this film. It's a new Sandler movie for Netflix and this time going into animated territory is a fresh idea that has paid off. Sandler voices Leo. A classroom pet lizard that's watced many kids come and go throughout the years and longs to get out of there. So when a substitute takes over and makes taking home the pet mandatory he makes it his mission to help the kids his watched. Also there is squirtal. A turtle voiced by Bill Barr that also adds some good comic relief. I thought the animation was great and designed well and the hillerious way the pre schoolers with the big eyed was done to. It was fun throughout and a great animated film, maybe even one of the netflixes best movies perhaps ever.

Overall, I felt that the first half of Leo was much better than the second half, which suffered from poor pacing and loses steam. The musical numbers come out of nowhere and are deeply forgettable but the fun, silly humor (minus a few dirty jokes that went over kids' heads and felt shoehorned in) with which Leo interacts with the students is delightful. Even if you hate Sandler's comedic stylings (I don't), you will likely find yourself somewhat charmed by this septuagenarian lizard imparting wisdom to 5th graders. The substitute teacher's character arc is convulated and non-sensical, contributing to a final act that feel rushed at times, too slow at others, and wholly unsatisfying. But, to be clear, it is a fine move for what it seta out to be: a cute family film that delivers thoughtful lessons packaged in Sandler's classic style of humor. 6.8/10.

Randomly saw this movie on Netflix and gave it a shot. Even as a children-family oriented movie, I liked it.

Adam Sandler has been on a streak of featuring in movies were mostly okay or so so. Leo turned out to be better than expected with satisfying parameters.

While most of the interactions were with children, the offered wisdom and guidance to help them was insightful. This movie is a good reminder everyone is going through their own struggles in life. People are not alone in their daily problems, everyone needs some help sooner than never.

It was interesting to see some adult like references which were played out very well. This is a good movie, a nice watch on a relaxing day.
