March Movie Picks_Rango

Whenever I am lost in the next step to take in life or need inspiration at a moment of my life, watching a movie does help. Whether you have a partner or friend to watch it with you, or the seat next to you is empty, it does not matter. Most importantly, I can have the luxury to choose the settings I wanted.

This week, my pick is Rango.

From the director of "The Pirates of the Caribbean" comes Rango, featuring Johnny Depp in an original animated comedy-adventure that take moviegoers for a hilarious and heartfelt walk in the Wild West.

The story follows the comical, transformative journey of Rango (by Johnny Depp), a sheltered lizard living as an ordinary family pet, while facing a major identity crisis. After all, how high can he aim when his whole purpose in life is to blend in?

When Rango accidentally winds up in the gritty, gun-slinging town of Dirt - a lawless outpost populated by the desert's most wily and whimsical creatures - the less-than-courageous lizard suddenly finds he stands out. Welcomed as the last hope the town has been waiting for, new Sheriff Rango is forced to play his new to the hilt. Until, in a blaze of action-packed situations and encounters with outrageous characters, Rango starts to become the hero he once only pretended to be.


With a cast that include Depp, Isla Fisher, Abigail Breslin, Alfred Molina, Bill Night, Harry Dean stanton, Ray Winstone, and Timothy Olyphant as the Spirit of the West, Rango is an exciting new twist on the classic Western legend of the outsider who saves a town and himself in the process of knowing his real purpose and identity in life.

Personal Opinion:
This is the fourth movie for the month of March, love it because it does highlight the importance of having fresh water and we need to conserve our water supply which many people at the other parts of the world faces such problem of lacking of water.

Though it was a serious issue, yet, it was presented in an animated and colurful way with 4 little owls singing at different turning points of the story, a good way to draw attention and educate viewers.

Definitely, a 4 out of 5.
