MOVIE REVIEW: 'Planet 51'
...Lem will never man up (alien up?) and ask her out. The animation in this Sony Pictures film is bland but still quite pretty in a Dreamworks-like way - not that there's anything here to top the visual grandeur of a Pixar picture.

More on DreamWorks
Description from Wikipedia:
DreamWorks, LLC, also known as DreamWorks Pictures, DreamWorks SKG or DreamWorks Studios, is a major American film studio which develops, produces, and distributes films, video games, and television programming. It has produced or distributed more than ten films with box-office grosses totalling more than $100 million each. Its most successful title to date is Shrek 2.
DreamWorks began in 1994 as an ambitious attempt by media moguls Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg, and David Geffen (forming the SKG present on the bottom of the DreamWorks logo) to create a new Hollywood studio. In December 2005, the founders agreed to sell the studio to Viacom. The sale was completed in February 2006. In 2008, Dreamworks announced its intention to end its partnership with Paramount and signed a US$1.5 billion deal to produce films with India's Reliance ADA Group.
DreamWorks' animation arm was spun-off in 2004 into DreamWorks Animation SKG. Its films were distributed worldwide by Paramount, but the animation studio remained independent of Paramount/Viacom.
On February 9 2009, DreamWorks entered a 6-year, 30-picture distribution deal with The Walt Disney Company and its other partners starting in 2010, after breaking off negotiations with Universal Pictures just days earlier.
