Flushed Away (2006)
Dir: David Bowers & Sam Fell

Flushed Away is an adventure comedy animation about a rat called Roddy who lives a luxurious lifestyle in a flat in Kensington, until he gets flushed down the toilet into the sewers of London. (I know, iconic.)

Flushed Away definitely isn't the best animated film ever released, but I honestly have to say that it may be one of my favourites. It is a genuinely laugh out loud film for children and adults alike. The premise, like the majority of animated films is so ludicrous that it makes it so fun to watch. Rich rats, poor rats, evil frogs, singing slugs, you name it, it's in there. But as goes with films like this, I give so much credit to the writes for managing to pull together these outrageous story lines as well as creating hilarious quips and innuendos throughout. I honestly think that writers for children/family films are actual geniuses when they manage to land jokes for all audiences.

Flushed Away feels like one of those films that got lost and forgotten in Hugh Jackman's filmography nowadays, but I honestly love it so much and I really would recommend it, probably for a younger audience though.
