...shrink, the first moments of Antz suggest a film destined to become another prototypical Woody Allen movie. Until Woody (now an ant named "Z") gets off the psychoanalyst's couch and walks into "The Colony." The makers of Antz seem particularly interested in demonstrating their ability to depict water and human movement, disregarding the fact that the plot must make some rather forced detours in order to accommodate these animated showpieces. Though the character of Allen as well as those of the other actors (voiced by Dan Akroyd, Anne Bancroft, Sylvester Stalone and Jennifer Lopez among others) take some...
Though Antz has both a plot and a passable script, the feeling that the movie exists primarily to demonstrate schnazzy new animation technology is inescapable. Only the second full length movie to be entirely computer animated, the makers of Antz seem particularly interested in demonstrating their ability to depict water and human movement, even if the plot must make some rather forced detours in order to accommodate these animated showpieces...

Paramount/DreamWorks' Deep Impact (due May 8) and Disney's Armageddon (July 1) both depict space missions that try to use nukes to knock incoming rocks off their fatal trajectories. Armageddon is about tough guys doing a tough job in space, while Deep Impact (inspired by the '50s films When Worlds Collide and On the Beach) emphasizes the human drama on Earth. This is Hollywood, remember: the real-life asteroid is a mile wide; in Armageddon it's the size of Texas. Says producer Jerry Bruckheimer: "We always do things bigger." And faster; you needn't wait till 2028 for these...
