Adam Sandler is back in animation with his next Netflix movie, Leo. In this review, not only will I be looking into this musical lizard, but also discover how Leo is so far the best animated movie featuring Adam Sandler yet…even if the Netflix film itself is not all that great.

I gotta say, this is really good. Adam Sandler as an old tuatara passing down wisdom to the kids and learning some things himself is actually pretty wholesome and endearing. Sure it has that whole liar reveal plot and the ending is a liitle clustered, but all in all it's a fun time. The banter between Leo and Squirtle is golden and there were plenty of good jokes too.

I agree with the banter between Leo and Squirtle being hilarious! I also found Leo’s goal/personality to be endearing (his songs do remind me a lot of Mr Rogers Neighborhood). But I didn’t like how they had Leo realize he has more time to live at the end and would have preferred if they had him about to die.

This is easily not only Adam Sandlers best animated movie, it’s also one best comedies in recent years. The story was weak but in execution, the morals and humor was good and the heart is in the right place. the animation was nice if not perfect. And the characters are interesting in their own way. He should really do more animated movies. 8/10

I like how Leo not only gives the kids life advice but the kids also teach him stuff as well. Like how crying is not something to be ashamed of but it can also be healthy. It gives a far better message than just "your elders always know best"

To make it clear, I don't hate Adam Sandler. Heard that he's actually a great person in real life and you can tell he wants everyone to have a moment to shine. Not just himself or his close peers, but also his family members, veterans, and up in coming actors to have their contribution be prominent in one of his recent movies. That plan alone is actually really sweet, then again Leo is still decent at best but a forgettable experience at worst so I'm not missing much here.

A surprise from both Netflix and Adam Sandler Leo is a movie that's pretty good for a simple film about a old lizard and has a good message to take away. Sandler gave us a movie that's decent and a step up from the later HT movies and a huge one from 8 crazy nights a terrible movie that is one of the worst holiday movies I've seen.

8:20 - About those kindergarteners, I do not like how they are depicted and especially how they looked. They were rather off-puting or even insulting to ACTUAL kindergarteners and people that were used to be them. I can even say the same thing about the "humorous", for a lack of a better word, expressions for the characters and the gross out humour isn't really my cup of tea. Other than that, the film is... fine. Just fine. The only thing that I can remember from this film is only its GEICO advert.
