NJ Kids Movie Review: Norm Of The North

There seems to be a formula for kids' movies these days. Take a main character (a polar bear, in this case), give them some goofy sidekicks (ragtag lemmings here), and send them on a journey to write the wrongs of the world (to NYC to thwart the construction of luxury condos in the Arctic). Oh, and always throw in lots of potty humor. I don't know about you, but I think filmmakers need to start thinking outside the box when it comes to family films. Give us something new. Pixar can't be the only studio who does this, can they?
