Summary: A good germ in the making.....
Review: Osmosis Jones is about a white germ, but bad at doing it. He is a loser to everyone, a slacker, he is a slacker/rapper, that teams up a 12 hour cold pill to kill a DEADLY virus! The 12 hour cold pill gets down and does the nose first, Frank, the guy the white germ lives in, is a slob, a 100% slob. To save Frank, the white germ kills the virus, and puts the body tarm. in the right place, so Frack is saved, but still he was almost a goner, the white blood cell his happy and respected, and Frank is doing exerizes. There are more stuff, like that there is a mayor inside Franks head, and more, but I told you the main stuff. I don't want to ruin everything for you. Drewing, is very good, they druw the characters well:8.5/10 Fun, there are some good parts and some bad parts, I would say there are more good parts:7/10 Movieplay, this is a good-sized movie:9/10 Overall, Osmosis Jones is very good:8.5/10

Summary: Too Silly And Gross
Review: Comedic blend of live-action and animation, about a lazy slob who is invaded by a lethal virus, and the street-wise white-blood cell cop and straight-laced cold medication that come to his aid.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Use a Klenex Would You?
Review: Movie Summary: Osmosis Jones is a white blood cell in the body of Frank. He is a cop who defends Frank from invading germs. Frank is a disgusting human being who eats a hard boiled egg from the floor of a monkey's cage and in the process ingests a nasty virus named Thrax. Jones is the only cop who is on to Thrax's evil plan to kill Frank in record time. Jones gets help from an over the counter cold pill named Drix and together they fight to save Frank's life.

My Opinion: The animated portions of the movie were entertaining and fun. The live action portions of the film were gross and not that funny. If it had been 95% animation, this would have been a lot better film. As it is, its audience would be mostly teen and pre-teen boys who are into the gross out humor. Bill Murray's character is disgusting and very hard to like. He doesn't treat his daughter very well. He comes across as very unsympathetic. In the animated portions, all the characters are well done. Chris Rock does an excellent job as Jones. He's funny and you end up rooting for him. David Hyde Pierce is perfect as Drix the cold pill. They make a surprisingly good team. Laurence Fishburne and William Shatner round out the excellent animated cast. If only they could have toned down the live action parts and made Frank more likable. Then we'd probably have a hit on our hands.

DVD Quality: Video: Widescreen anamorphic - 2.35:1 Animation is very crisp and clear. Sound: DD 5.1 The dialog is quiet and the music is loud. Extras: Commentary, Trailers, Behind the Scenes Documentary, Deleted Scenes, Hidden Clip Menus: Average Animated Menus. This is a decent DVD release with a fair amount of extras.

What You Should Do: Rent it if you've got some teen age boys in the house. The animated portion of the story is great, but the live action scenes can get pretty gross.

Summary: A sleeper
Review: this movie is a gross and drawn out method of teaching boddly up keep. i didnt like it and im sorry i bought it. although Bill Muarry have been in better films ...I think he discredit him-self here.

Summary: more awful packaging
Review: I know most of my reveiws seem to ramble on abut the way things are packed, but this really makes me mad this dvd had a bonus cd sampler in it and the disc was all sticky and and gooey and in this day and age this is kind of scary. I don't know about the movie because I have yet to watch it and am thinking of returning it if it were not for the fact the people at the store would think I was a nut. Warner you also need to get out of the dvd iceage with those stupid snap cases.Please bw advised that this is a bad way to to pakage things and if the disc were on the back of the case like the tape it would have not been so bad.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Not for the squeamish!
Review: This is a movie that has lots of grossness to it, but there is a very good heart to (z)it. I suggest that you not eat before watching this movie because it is very gross, not as gross as Hannibal but still gross. Chris Rock was hilarious in this movie as was Bill Murray who was in only half of the movie. Well animated and directed, Osmosis Jones is a movie definitely for children, NOT adults. Rated PG for gross bodily humor.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: mostly fun
Review: The movie is not as gross as some people are making it sound. I think there was only one or two scenes that I found gross. As an intentional biology major, I thought it was great that they made a funny movie about our body. Little kids would probably be a little bored with this movie, not understanding what a cell is. But older kids like 8 and up, would probably like it and even learn a few things about the human body.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A smart animated movie
Review: Most people immediatly write this film off as a "gross out" movie, when in fact it's actually quite smart. They really go in depth with the inner workings of the body, and are pretty dead on scientifically. As someone who is very interested in anatomy and the body, I throughly enjoyed this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great, even though it's a kiddie movie.
Review: I saw "Osmosis Jones" the first day it came out at Parkay Plaza back in August, and I thought it was a great film, I thought it was a little extreme for a kid's movie, but most of them are now days. But none-the-less I really enjoyed "Osmosis Jones". I liked how they had interesting ways of explaining what causes your body to do certain thinks, like for example, when you take a decongesant and how your nose usually gets all crusty, it explains why that happens. I have to agree with one of the other reviewers, that it was pretty "gross" for a partly animated film aimed for the pre-adolescent audience. I personally would not be surprised if kids who see this film become worried about germs, and if they will get sick by them. Just a little side note, I liked how they used Foreigner's "Hot Blooded", even though it was butchered by an unnecesary remix and look for cameos by Kid Rock and the late Joe C. as part of the germ population.

I really liked "Osmosis Jones" and I'm no-doubtedly going to buy it when it hits dvd. It may be a little too frightening for young ones, and may be to corny for most teens. I suggest seeing it in theatres if it hasn't left theatres in your town (and most-likley it has), but it that's not posible, then it's a definate rental.

Rating: 5 stars
