Movie review

From Time Out Online

This fourth animated adventure starring the popular Swedish children’s book characters, old farmer Pettson and his talking cat Findus, is perhaps better suited to DVD than the cinema, as it’s really a series of episodes rather than a feature film. Nevertheless their exploits are hugely entertaining, especially the final section when an Elvis-styled rock ’n’ roll group land their hot air balloon in Pettson’s field and they all jam together backed by a band of tuba-playing hens.
