I saw this at the time and Marcel Marceau's "Non!" produced one of the biggest laughs I've ever had in a movie theater.  This time, I instead laughed at the "walking against the wind" joke, which I wouldn't have gotten at eight. Anyway, the movie is uneven, sometimes tedious, sometimes hilarious.  I think it's worth sticking with, especially if you want to count '70s "movie stars."  (I tagged as many as I was allowed, but I do have to mention I spotted a pre-CHiPs Erik Estrada.)  Brooks directed, co-wrote, and stars.

I liked this more than I expected, although the tropes do cross over into cliches at times.  The look is good, and I'm saying that as someone who is generally not a fan of computer animation.  The celebrity voices help*, most notably villainess Bancroft and Idle as her spooneristic minion.  Mark F. Adler and Jason Maurer co-directed, and co-wrote with others.

*I'm omitting Sally Kellerman, Kelly Ripa, and Burt Reynolds from the crowded tags.
