MR. PEABODY AND SHERMAN (Theatrical Release USA 2014)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.4|5.0 Starsììì

Mr. Peabody and Sherman is an animated romp through time. It’s definitely sculpted to draw the Mr. Peabody and Sherman audience and serves that crowd well.

Storyline

Mr. Peabody (voice by Ty Burrell), adopts a boy and names him Sherman (voice by Max Charles). Mr. Peabody’s personally invented time machine is conveniently used to teach Sherman history firsthand. When the dreaded Social Services Agency challenges the propriety of Mr. Peabody, a dog, raising a human boy, and a classmate challenges the accuracy of Sherman’s historical knowledge, the excitement begins.
