Catch Snoopy and Charlie Brown in 3D!

Don't let your kids miss the Golden Globes’ and Annie Awards’ 2016 nominee for Best Animated Motion Picture, Snoopy and Charlie Brown The Peanuts Movie! The movie based on Charles Schulz' beloved comic will finally be seen in Philippine theatres beginning January 8. It is true that all Peanuts characters have their individual charms-- from Charlie Brown’s eternal underdog status and Linus’ heart, to Marcie’s introspection and Lucy’s crabbiness--the universal appeal of these relatable characters makes Peanuts a truly endearing comic strip. While the movie can't hold a candle anywhere near the likes of Up or even Howl's Moving Castle, Snoopy and Charlie Brown the Peanuts Movie is an enjoyable 3D spectacle worth a watch with your little kids.

The plot is simple, the lesson even more so. Just when Charlie Brown needs to impress a girl, will his perennially bad luck take a turn for the worse? Will Snoopy ever be able to complete the love novella about the girl of his dreams and the Red Baron? These are simple stories little children can understand, and parents won't have a hard time explaining. But with the magic of 3D animation, parents will have very little trouble letting their kids remember that being an underdog like Charlie Brown is no big deal if you possess the traits that truly matter (you know, like kindness, and stuff.)

Personally, since I have already seen the older animated Peanuts movies, I was already expecting a laid back, simple adventure story about a bunch of kids who just love having fun. In this 3D movie, director Steve Martino was able to capture that atmosphere and just updated it to appeal to today's younger generation. And it didn't hurt that the kid voice actors were nothing short of awesome too.

Can't wait to see Snoopy and the gang in 3D? Listen to the voices of Noah Schnapp (Charlie Brown), Alex Garfin (Linus), Hadley Miller (Lucy) and Francesca Capaldi (Little Red-Haired Girl). Even better, catch Tony and Emmy award winner Kristin Chenoweth voice Snoopy's love interest, Fifi! (TRIVIA: Chenoweth won a Tony and Drama Desk awards in 1999 for her portrayal of Sally Brown in the musical, “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown”.)
