I am 27 years old and saw this movie with my mother. Nope, no kiddos in tow. I was hoping this wouldn't turn out to be a case of seeing the best parts in the previews. Not even close. You can be a kid of any age and still enjoy 77 minutes of frivolous fun.
There are some great sight gags, clever puns, and a few pop culture phrases thrown in for good measure. Casting is excellent, matching voice characteristics to superb animation, and a fun mix of characters to fall in love with. Along with other commenters, I vastly prefer Pixar's films; however, this is an ace in the hole for Disney.
The only caution is the alien invasion scenes. Might be a bit scary for children in some parts, especially when the humor is sparse to break the tension, but as with any Disney film, all's well that ends well.
I will probably own this one on DVD. 7/10 stars.
