Description
How do you manage to create a film that is both cliched AND unique? We’re not sure either, but DreamWorks figured it out when they made “Turbo”. The concept is essentially “The Fast and the Furious” but with snails, where the titular Turbo gains super speed in a freak accident and zooms off to achieve his dream of being a racing champion. It’s harmless overall, with plenty of color, great voice acting, and humor to spare, but it felt rather basic compared to the company’s other notable hits, which ultimately left it underperforming at the box office. It did, however, manage to gain its own Netflix show which produced new episodes from 2013 to 2016.
