What a waste of a game for an awesome movie. I bought it b/c it was only 14.99. Within the first 10 seconds of playing it I realized why. The game play is only side to side and the graphics and story line are terrible. My 7 year old enjoys it, but she would not be able to advance on to the next levels unless I played with her. It's very difficult for that age range. Very disappointing overall compared to other cartoon movie games and the lego games.

My kids love this game!
Pros: Easy setting gives you infinite lives. This game also has two player anytime you just jump in. It offers hours of fun for any player.
Cons: A little repetitive, and not exactly like the movie.

This is way to hard for anyone! The enemies are hard to destroy so you may use your specials but you use them hundreds of times and you run out of them. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!I am lucky beacause I just rented it.
