I just ordered this, but before I watch it. What is your take on this Disney film?

Hey there! Just purchased and watched the disc today. I think it is a great movie! Sure, the plot is not overly hard to figure out, but David Spade makes this movie! His wit, coupled with some fast paced animation make for quite an entertaining movie. The extras on my disc were pretty good. I did not by the collector's edition, but the regular version has some good stuff, including a deleted scene, music videos, director's commentary, etc. Very well worth the $20.

I second that. Rented the regular version and watched with my daughter last night. Very enjoyable film. David Spade is great and the supporting voices are a lot of fun too.....

Yep, kudos to the entire voicing cast, especially Spade and Eartha Kitt! It was hilarious and none of the usual singing crap. I only got the regular edition disc, but it's got some nice extras on it (loved the menu!).

This movie was much funnier than I expected it to be. All the actors were great. I only found John Goodman's character to be a bit subpar.

I was pleasantly surprised by this title. I avoided it in the theatres thinking that I would hate a movie about a spoiled, obnoxious, bratty llama.

On the contrary, I realy liked this movie. It's funny and I also liked it that there are no singing animals or humans.

I've already viewed it several times on my new portable Panasonic L50.

Can't wait to listen to it in DD5.1.

Thank you all, I got it yesterday, and I watched too. It was funny and entertaining. The Hunchback from Notre Dame is still my favorite Disney film.
