When
poachers kidnap Jackie Legs from the Australian Outback, bumbling
Brooklyn buddies Louise, Charlie and Jessie have to leap into
action. Their attempts to save the Kangaroo see lead to Las
Vegas. They get caught up in a cross-continental jewel heist
and the FBI think that they are the crooks. To prove their
innocence all they have to do is find the jewels; to find
the jewels all they have to do is find Jack - but Jack is
free in Las Vegas so where do you start?...
G'Day
USA is
a spin-off animated feature from the live action movie Kangaroo
Jack. G'Day USA is also probably a better film
than the original - but then both movies really lend themselves
more to animated features than live action.
It
is the character of Louis that saves this movie from being
a dull affair. Louis's flatulence problem, his barefaced cheek
and his naiveté will have kids laughing.
Some
of the CGI scenes (which usually involve vehicles) really
let the whole movie down. They look pretty poor and when the
technology has advanced as much as it has, it's a bit of a
disappointment to see it used so sloppily.
There
are enough (just) jokes here to keep the adults watching,
but in all honesty this is more a movie for a younger audience.
Extras
include a music video, short featurette on how to draw Kangaroo
Jack (which for some odd reason doesn't keep the camera on
the artist all the time so you won't really be able to go
away and draw Kangaroo Jack at all); and a really fun interactive
game - which puts you in the role of the stars of the movie
and will certainly keep the little ones quiet.
Entertaining
enough - just don't expect too much.
