'Spirit:
Stallion of the Cimarron' follows the adventures of a wild and rambunctious
mustang stallion as he journeys through the untamed American frontier. Encountering
man for the first time, Spirit defies being broken, even as he develops
a remarkable friendship with a young Lakota brave named Little Creek. The
courageous young stallion also finds love with a beautiful paint mare named
Rain on his way to becoming one of the greatest unsung heroes of the Old
West.
With
Matt Damon ('Good Will Hunting') providing the voice for the title character
and for the narration for the title character, 'Spirit: Stallion of the
Cimarron' has more in common with animated features such as DreamWorks earlier
films such as 'The Prince Of Egypt' and 'El Dorado' with their traditional
animation. The film also features the voice talents of actors such as James
Cromwell ('Babe'), who plays a Cavalry Colonel determined to break the defiant
mustang and Daniel Studi, who is the voice of Little Creek.
With
'Spirit…', DreamWorks step away (for the moment) from the fantastic
computer generated style of 'Shrek' to go back to a much more traditional
way of working, but with 'Shrek 2' already in pre-production, it looks like
they will be going back to it quite soon. 'Shrek 2' picks up right where the first movie ended, with Shrek (Mike Myers) and Fiona (Cameron Diaz) returning from their honeymoon to find that they have been invited to Fiona's parents for dinner. The only problem is that they have no idea that their daughter is now an ogre.
And with Diaz apparently in line to receive $10,000,000 for it (as opposed to $1,500,000 for the first one) computer animated films certainly don't come cheap.
