Surly, an exiled, selfish and self-centered squirrel teams up with some other animals to raid a nut shop in other to help the exact same park which threw him away. At the same time, in the same building, a similar job is being planned and executed by humans but with a higher stake.It's a very linear story full of expected events interfering from time to time with ridiculous decisions. The characters are badly created with inexplicable personalities and judgment which obviously do not transmit any emotion or feeling to the viewer. Judging by the trailers, it should have been funny, entertaining and interesting but sadly, I have to say that they were a lot better than this entire movie. No laughter, no story, no characters, no nothing. It looks great and it is well animated though, but that's about it. I cannot recommend a movie just because it looks good, not even an animation and especially not this one. A bad film overall.

A poorly animated, completely unfunny kids comedy about a selfish squirrel who learns nothing, willing to do anything (including lying, stealing and mistreating his friends) in order to bypass a tyrannical raccoon "villain" whose main crime is...storing food for the winter for all his furry friends? And of course there's an animated Psy dancing to Gangnam Style during the credits. Because Hollywood hates you and your children.

I was tricked into watching this movie particularly due to the decent animation. My cousin and I got all excited when my father took us to see this movie thinking it was gonna be good. Boy, we were wrong! The majority of the voice actors (especially Liam Neeson) sound like they hate the film, the jokes suck and are inappropriate, and the frequent use of the song Gangnam Style (which I hate) is annoying as crap. The only thing I liked about this film was the dog (don't remember her name) who thought her tail had a mind of its own when she wagged it. That's all. I totally regret having my parents watch this movie. This is one out of several bad films I've seen with my family that we never speak of.I'll stick with Alvin and The Chipmunks no matter how bad people say it is because I actually enjoyed it.

An incorrigibly self-serving exiled squirrel finds himself helping his former park brethren raid a nut store to survive, that is also the front for a human gang's bank robbery. The Nut Job is one of the most underrated animated films of the last couple of years and i don't get it why it got so many bad reviews i seriously laughed threw out the whole thing, the characters were well written and the whole plot although it was recycled from other animated movies of the past it still worked. The voice cast was really good for the most part and i really can't find anything bad about this film it was funny, full of adventure and even sad when it was needed and i'm gonna give it an 10/10.
