Hop
Introduction:
The movie Hop is a lovely computer-animated and live action film which
I loved watching with my family. Itś about an Easter bunny who owns an
Easter factory and supplies Easter goodies to children all over the world.
Plot:
There was an Easter bunny named E.B. (Easter Bunny). His biggest dream
was to play the drums and to be in a band. His father wanted him to take
over the Easter factory at Easter Island but E.B. had other plans and dreams.
One night Eve escaped Easter Island and went to Hollywood. There he
met a man named Fred who had no job and did not take life seriously.
Fred´s car banged E.B. and E.B. pretended to be injured and forced
Fred to take him in with him.
E.B.ś father found E.B. missing and was worried about him and sent
his royal guards, the Pink Berets to search for E.B. E.B. saw the Pink
Berets closing in on him. He hides inside an office where Fred is having
a job interview. In one of the rooms, E.B. enjoys a good recording session
with a band of blind men as their substitute drummer but he spoils Fred’s
job interview. In the process E.B. gets a tip about an audition with a man
called David Hasselhoff who invites E.B. to perform on his show.
Later Fred attends his younger sister’s school Easter show. E.B.
disrupts the show and Fred and E.B. perform a song. “I want candy”.
It was then that Fred got inspired to be the Easter Bunny himself. E.B.
agrees to train Fred and finds that Fred has good talent to be an
Easter Bunny.
In the meantime, Carlos the chicken who is the Easter bunny
(E.B.ś fathers) second-in-command makes a plot against E.B’s
father to take over Easter Island but Carlos doesn't have the
qualities that an Easter bunny needs.
By now the Pink Berets close in on E.B. but E.B. fools the royal guards
by faking his death and leaves for the Hasselhoff show. The Berets
capture Fred and take him to Easter land and tell E.B’s father and
Carlos that Fred killed E.B. Carlos pretends to be upset about E.B’s
death and he does not allow Fred to speak the truth. Carlos takes
control of the Easter factory and ties up Fred and E.B’s father and
places them in a pot to be boiled alive.
Meanwhile E.B. starts to feel guilty for acting selfish and leaving
Fred alone at home. Hasselhoff tells E.B. to go back and help his
friend Fred. E.B. discovers that the Pink Berets took Fred to Easter
Island and so he hurries back to the Easter Factory and saves the day.
He defeats Carlos and saves Fred and his father.
E.B. and his father reconcile and he and Fred are crowned co-Easter
bunnies while Carlos was forced to pull the Easter Egg sleigh.
Review:
I enjoyed watching Hop because it was colourful and full of life and wonder.
It was not so funny and I think the producers could have have used a little
more imagination and a little more story line.
This is my review on Hop. It was fun to watch Hop. You could watch it one day. Also do not forget to have popcorn whilst watching.
