Directed by Brad Bird, who also wrote and directed The Incredibles, a Pixar film.

Who was also one of the key directors/animators in the early (i.e. good) seasons of the Simpsons. In other words, Brad Bird kind of rocks.

I can't get over how RJ looks in the opening picture. He looks like he'll turn on you at any second and bite your arm off.

Is he?
With the exception of Cars and maybe A Bug's Life, every single film Pixar has made have been beautiful, poignant, wonderful, awe-inspiring, sad, funny, unpretentious examples of great film-making from the top down. Those other two, along with a disproportionate amount of CGI films made by other studios have at least been enjoyable, intelligent, emotionally genuine and generally solid. At the very least your average CGI film has been wildly effective amongst the target audience- I think people sometimes forget this?- kids. The only real stinkers, in my opinion, have been the two Shrek sequels, Madagascar 2 and Shark Tale.
In other words, the CGI animation studios have a far, far, far better strike rate than the major movie studios in general. What standard are you holding them to?
