It took me a week to get around to it, but I saw it.

Rango is the story of a pet lizard who, by a freak accident, finds himself wandering the Mojave desert. He stumbles upon a settlement and, having no real backstory whatsoever and loving drama, he creates one for himself and tells the settlers there of his fearless, gunslinging past. Taken in by his stories and tough-guy demeanor, the townspeople make him their new Sheriff and lay the responsibility of saving their town from destruction on his shoulders.

Rango is actually more enjoyable if you've seen a few westerns. The satire on the format is the entire purpose of the movie and it does it well. Don't let this stop you from checking it out if you're not a westerns kind of person. If I have one complaint, it's that the first act does take a while to build speed, but the third act surprised me with engaging story turns, so the two do balance out for the most part. It did end up being more interesting than it let on at the beginning. This is a solid B+ movie and I do recommend it.

[BB]Piccolo:  I'm amazed I actually still knew my login. We Black Buccaneers certainly had a special relationship with you Cut Throats. Nothing like a fierce rivalry to make the battlefield exciting, eh? :)
