Lyle, Lyle Crocodile is pretty straightforward what you would expect from the trailer. A family movie with CGI character that conveys emotion and of course sings. Because it is so straightforward, I’m not going to do a deep dive review. I recommend that you check out the trailer, if you haven’t already. For what it’s worth, I did enjoy the movie.

Must-see in theaters?
To support, sure. This movie does not require a big screen or sound. The story could transfer to the small screen.
Grade: B
About The Peetimes: I would recommend the 1st Peetime, but the 2nd isn’t bad either, just a little shorter.
