""Tim Burton's Move Pitch""
date: November 20, 2009
In the fine tradition of monkey movies comes TBMP, Tim Burton's Movie Pitch. This film only got a limited release here in the states, but in the fine country of Canada it was the number one kids film, and who could blame them for making it so. This film follows the adventures of Tim, a mischeavous little primate that is a wizz at playing hockey. So, what is the worst team in the league going to do, of course, recruit Tim to come in as their ringer and assist them in winning games. This film comes to us from the makers of Duck, a fine line of family films, not personally my thing, since they all had a dog, monkeys are the way to go. This film is great for everyone. It has elements that everyone can get into, team work, overcoming adversity, hockey, and of course, a crazy little primate named Tim.
