Top quality animation movies to look out for on M-Net are
Penguins Of Madagascar and Finding Nemo.
Penguins of Madagascar can be
seen on M-Net Movies Premiere DStv Channel 103 on September 12 at 18h20. Directed
in 2014 by Eric Darnell and Simon J Smith, the movie features the voices of Tom
McGrath, John Malkovich and Chris Miller.
John Malkovich is not an actor one can easily picture as
a voice artist in a warm and fuzzy film about penguins... until it transpires
that he is not a hopping and shuffling water bird, but a slimy and slithery
mollusc on a mission. Cuteness can be an extremely useful asset in most
circumstances, but four huggable penguins - Skipper, Kowalski, Private and Rico
– find themselves in a spot of bother when they become a target of the envious
Dr Octavius Brine, an undercover octopus who wasn’t cute enough for the zoo.
Finding Nemo follows on September
13 on M-Net Movies Family DStv Channel 105 at 19h00. Directed by Andrew Stanton
and Lee Unkrich in 2003, the movie
features the voices of Albert Brooks, Ellen DeGeneres and Alexander Gould.
In the early years of the new millennium, Pixar churned
out one hit after another. Among those, Finding
Nemo stood out for its mix of humour and heart-rending moments. Who on
earth – or under the sea – can resist such a gorgeous little creature?
Nemo is a tiny clown fish who gets separated from his
father, and soon finds himself in unknown waters with no direction home. His
daddy follows up every conceivable lead in order to stay on his trail in a
thrilling – and scary – adventure that reaches a dramatic climax in Sydney
Harbour.
