No. Like I said, I think I'll pass. I'm sure it has amazing special effects, but computer animation isn't really enough on its own. I prefer films with some intellectual depth. And by all accounts I've read, this one is just another shallow Hollywood drive-by taking cheap shots at corporate America. The eye-candy is just the lure to pass along their political views. Even if one agrees with their leftist viewpoint, it's a shame that no one in Hollywood is able to walk and chew gum at the same time: How refreshing it would be if they could make a serious film with a novel plot that ALSO included amazing special effects... but apparently they can't, or don't think it's worth the trouble. Political views/motives aside, special effects should enhance a film, not be the reason for the film.
