Frankenweenie
An exciting story that recounts the painful incident of a dog called Sparky. When Sparky collides with a car that may lose his life, Victor (his loyal friend) decides to bring him back to life in the only way he knows. Victor will harness the power of science to bring his best friend back to life. When chaos and terror surround the hearts of Victor's neighbors, he must persuade them (and his parents) that Sparks, a good and loyal friend, is still alive to face those dire consequences.

This 3-D, black-and-white "family" comedy is the year's most inventive, endearing animated feature.October 05, 2012
