Forgetting Sarah Marshall and Neighbors director Nicholas Stoller helms the latest computer-animated family film from Warner Bros. Animation. Andy Samberg voices Junior, a top delivery stork for Amazon proxy Cornerstore. In this world, storks no longer deliver babies; they deliver packages. Junior hopes to take over when his current boss, Hunter (v. Kelsey Grammer), gets promoted. But before his promotion, Junior must fire the last baby that was supposed to be delivered—an orphan named Tulip (v. Katie Crown), who has grown up at Cornerstore. Soon, Junior and Tulip must team up to deliver a new baby before Hunter and his minions can stop them.
The plot is sillier than most animated features, but it is cute and harmless. The Key and Peele wolves deliver the biggest laughs. A quiet fight that takes place late in the movie is another humorous highlight. Storks is a forgettable family movie that should entertain the kiddos for an hour and a half.
