*** Three stars
The first Sing ranks among the best animated films of the last decade, with its epic of declassified with artistic vocation and final there Muppet Show, fully effective even after seeing it multiple times. This second installment is, unfortunately, less of the same: yes, singing animals; yes, versions of pop hits; and yes, a tale of an old rocker who does not want to go back to the ring and you have to convince him.
The old rocker’s voice puts it Bond, and by now -sorry the fans of U2-, it can be thought that the man, in the cinema, subtracts. It may not be his fault, but rather that the filmmaker Garth jennings he only thought about the effects of the first film instead of thinking about why it worked, what was – is – charming, what made it fresh and novel even though the story had been told millions of times since the existence of the film. musical cinema.
Remain standing an overwhelming design (which is not always good) and a little sympathy; the other, the substance that provided all the excitement and pleasure, was left out of the inventory.
