I'm betting that many of you wrote this
movie off before it even came out primarily because it stars Adam
Sandler who, despite having a solid fan base, has never been a hit
with critics. Even now, Sandler has hit a rough patch after 2011's
'Jack and Jill' received every award at the annual Razzies
(rightfully so, by the way) and his summer film 'That's My Boy' was a
box office flop. However, 'Hotel Transylvania' is a different story
and really, it's the best film Sandler has done in a while. A lot of
this stems from the film's director Genndy Tartakovsky, the creator
of such cartoon classics as Dexter's Lab and Samurai Jack.
Tartakovsky infuses the film with a great sense of energy, as shown
by the film's pacing and its excellent animation. On top of that, it
has a great father-daughter story and the film definitely had some
funny moments (particularly during the end, which includes a great
jab at Twilight). All in all, it's a great Halloween film for the
kids that I'm sure even adults will enjoy as well.
Rating: 4/5
