Fun movie, enjoyed it with lots of humor. Story was a bit slow and predictable but a nice movie for kids. I have an 8 year old daughter so would definately watch this with her. Just felt they could have done more with the story.

Javier Bardem steals the show here - he is clearly having some fun in this otherwise rather derivative adventure caper. He is "Hector", a failing magician who can no longer get any work. On a visit to a pet shop one day, he encounters the eponymous character whom he discovers can hold a tune. Ah, thinks he - a fortune to be made. He puts just about everything he has on the line but poor old "Lyle"...
