I'm 30 years old, but I still enjoy watching animation films very much. As I heard that there was coming a movie with Jim Parsons & Steve Martin I knew I had to see it - specially when it was a film from Dreamworks.
From seeing the trailer I already knew I didn't like the animation style too much, but I didn't let that bother me watching the movie. Sadly, B class style was one of the lesser flaws of the film.
Jokes are outdated, movie is full of bubblegum pop music, the characters are far from interesting and you can't really build a connection to them. Also, the plot... oh phew. Way too easy. I mean, in most cases of animation films the plot is more or less predictable - after all, we're talking about western animations. They have a prodigy, who doesn't fit in, misses his/her parents and gets a happy ending. But Home just made my jaws sore from yawning.
It wasn't _all_ bad, I'm sure that many kids will enjoy this, but for me this was one of Dreamworks' biggest flops. The only actual fun I had thinking about Jim Parsons and how literally every one of his lines could've been said in The Big Bang Theory.
