Well, now we're on our way! I don’t think there are people who have never heard of Noah’s Ark. This story comes from ancient times, it was described in a variety of sources, and how many films were made about the ark, not count at all. Recently we even saw the real Hollywood blockbuster Darren Aronofsky called Noah, which suggests that the old legend is still on the crest of popularity. There is everything here to make a fascinating adventure movie: a big disaster, a lot of interesting characters and a kind, correct message at the head of everything. At the same time, the legend of Noah is interesting not only for adults, but also for children, which at one time and decided to use skilled European animators Toby Henkel and Sean McCormack.
In 2015, they released a funny and funny cartoon “Oops”. Noah sailed away, which pleased with an intriguing story, great jokes and good morality, which in the final, of course, won. But due to the fact that the Ark did not have time to get to the cherished land, we should expect the appearance of a sequel, which finally came out on the screens and was no worse than the beautiful original, and certainly much funnier. In general, humor here is cool and for the sake of it alone you can safely go to the movies, I know what I am talking about!
This time, the events take place 147 days after the Ark set out on its long journey across the boundless ocean. The earth is not yet visible, and food is becoming less and less. Many animals have to cut their diet, and this can not help but annoy predators led by the lion Lenny, who is not used to starving. After all, he is the king of beasts, the head of the ark, and he certainly should not suffer from a forced diet. Of course, the situation is not the easiest, chef Dave is in a slight shock, but suddenly our pets have an unexpected solution to the problem! . .
The first to find the long-awaited land two friends tomboy Finney and Lea. Once on the shore of a paradise island, where nesters have long formed their colony, animals begin to learn a completely new, civilized life, where there is always plenty of food and everyone helps each other and does not quarrel. And soon the ark also moors to the island, after which the most interesting thing begins. Of course, the animals tired of the protracted swimming are going to go to land and find their new home on the island, but the locals are in no hurry to rejoice in such a neighborhood, frankly afraid of predators, whose paw in the mouth exactly do not put. And this is about whether the animals will get along together, or not, just tells this cartoon.
Truth be told, you don’t really need to know what the first cartoon was about to get the most out of the second one. This is a very kind, positive and funny story that tells us about the adventures of very interesting heroes who can not sit in peace for a minute. They are constantly looking for new adventures, especially the restless Lea, but this is what we expect from them. And on the paradise island there will be exactly what to do and where to hooliganize.
It is very important here to understand that “Oops...Swimmed!” is not only a bright adventure cartoon, but also a great family comedy. Humor here is very much, and it is built both on gags with falls and other jokes, and on a semantic basis. It is very funny to watch how herbivores and predators coexist on the ark, and the cute chef is generally out of competition - his plan is how to lead all the animals by the nose after there is almost no food left, just something with something! You have to see it with your own eyes and laugh!
I want to pay special attention to the Russian voiceover. I don’t always like how our actors convey the emotions and character of other people’s characters, but this time I can confidently say that the voices are fine. The work was done just fine, and even though the star intonations I do not recognize here, the most important thing is that the actors and their characters are properly selected.
To sum up, “Oops... Swim! is a great, positive and really funny cartoon that you can safely watch with children and everyone will definitely have fun. This is a real family adventure, which is definitely not worth giving up.
