Release Date: November 3, 2006 Studio: DreamWorks Animation Director: Sam Fell, David Bowers Screenwriter: Dick Clement, Ian LaFrenais Starring: Hugh Jackman, Kate Winslet, Ian McKellen, Andy Serkis, Bill Nighy, Shane Richie, Jean Reno Genre: Animation, Comedy MPAA Rating: Not Available Official Website: FlushedAway.com Review: Not Available DVD Review: Not Available DVD: Not Available Movie Poster: View here Production Stills: View here Plot Summary: From DreamWorks Animation and Aardman Features, the teams behind the worldwide hit "Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit," comes the computer-animated comedy "Flushed Away." Blending Aardman's trademark style and characterizations with DreamWorks' state-of-the-art computer animation, "Flushed Away" is a madcap comedy set on and beneath the streets of London. Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust "society mouse" who lives the life of a beloved pet in a posh Kensington flat. When a sewer rat named Syd comes spewing out of the sink and decides he's hit the jackpot, Roddy schemes to rid himself of the pest by luring him into the "whirlpool." Syd may be an ignorant slob, but he's no fool, so it is Roddy who winds up being flushed away into the bustling sewer world of Ratropolis. There Roddy meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in her faithful boat, the Jammy Dodger. Roddy immediately wants out, or rather, up; Rita wants to be paid for her trouble; and, speaking of trouble, the villainous Toadâ€â€who royally despises all rodents equally, making no distinction between mice and ratsâ€â€wants them iced…literally. The Toad dispatches his two hapless hench-rats, Spike and Whitey, to get the job done. When they fail, the Toad has no choice but to send to France for his cousinâ€â€that dreaded mercenary, Le Frog. "Flushed Away" stars the voices of Tony Award winner Hugh Jackman (Broadway's "The Boy From Oz," the "X-Men" film franchise) as Roddy; four-time Oscar® nominee Kate Winslet ("Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind," "Iris," "Titanic," "Sense and Sensibility") as Rita; two-time Oscar® nominee Ian McKellen ("The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring," "Gods and Monsters") as the Toad; Andy Serkis ("The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King") and Bill Nighy ("Love Actually") as Spike and Whitey; Shane Richie ("Shoreditch") as Syd; and Jean Reno ("The Tiger and the Snow") as Le Frog. "Flushed Away" is being directed by Aardman's Sam Fell and DreamWorks' David Bowers, with additional directing by DreamWorks' Henry Anderson. Peter Lord, David Sproxton and Cecil Kramer are the producers. Copied Info from: http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=6000 Predictions? It faces "Santa Clause 3" that weekend. Honestly, why did DreamWorks put this against "Santa Clause 3"? I see "Flushed Away" pulling in around $16-18 million and finishing with around $60-70m million domestically. |

This looks like garbage so I hope it suffers from CGI overload. Predictions: 15/47 |

It would do much better if it or The Santa Clause moves, but it looks unlikely. 21/79 |

20/75 This should really move up to October, where there currently isn't any film for kids being released. |
