    I haven't seen Rango, but I did see The Adjustment Bureau and it was a total let down. The trailer looked so good, and it had an interesting premise. But the movie itself was a total let down. But I'm not surprise it came in second place though, against Rango.

    I've watched it six times, I think is the best-looking animated movie I ever seen before. It might have not the best story, but has many new things I haven't seen in past animated movies, from characters to scenarios it gives the feeling of not-for-kids I've been looking. Everything in the screen make you feel like you were actually in the old west, almost smelling the leather of the boots. I'm a native spanish speaker so I could understand both sides of the dialogues, it was incredibly funny. The movie itself was something refreshing for me I can say, and The trailer didn't show me everything, I'm glad I've actually decided to go to the movies and watch it, I wasn't disappointed at all. Sadly the movie is out of theaters right now but I'm so looking for the BluRay.
