DUCK DUCK GOOSE (Theatrical Release USA 2018)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.0|5.0 Starsììì

Duck Duck Goose needs a defining message, without overkill. The concept is good, but the message is distorted. The acting vacillates from weak to good. This lack of continuity noticeably affects watchability.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. The film’s animation is good. But, the PG-rating moves the film out of the age range of children who may enjoy it for the animation alone.
