When most people think of the Farrelly Brothers they think more of movies like "Theres Something About Mary" and "Dumb and Dumber," but Osmosis Jones is a movie that went largely unnoticed.
This movie is great, it has a storyline like you would expect by some bad short you watch at school in health class... but done right.
What more can a person ask for in an animated world than Chris Rock as a white blood cell fighting off a nasty virus voiced by Laurence Fishburne. You also have Bill Murray in the live action side of the movie playing the unclean and gross, yet lovable Frank. David Hyde Pierce was also great as the Cold Pill named Drix.
The animation is really cool, and I guess you could sort of say it's one of the last good animated movies made, seeing as the world has been taken over with CGI (Which is not necessarily a bad thing... it's just nice to see a traditionally animated movie.) I would also like to make comment on the designs of the inside of Frank... they were pretty cool.
Of course there is lots of toilet humour and innuendo... but it's all in good fun. Some people may be a bit grossed out though during some scenes. I would recommend you don't let your kids watch this movie if they are under the age of about eight, as there are some dark themes involving death in it.
Basically the animation is great, the characters are memorable and the movie is just a whole lot of fun.
So the bottom line is if you see this in a shop... I would give a very high recommendation to rent or even buy this. It's just a really good movie.
