I took my son to see Mr. Peabody & Sherman when it came out in the theaters. I was putting it off as long as I could because I really didn’t think I would like it let alone my seven-year-old. Boy was I wrong! This does have a lot of jokes and humor that was missed on him but I certainly picked up on.
I didn’t know this but Mr. Peabody & Sherman is based upon the beloved characters that first appeared in the late 1950s and early 1960s animated television series “Rocky and His Friends” and “The Bullwinkle Show,” produced by Jay Ward.
The story is about Mr. Peabody (Ty Burrell) who is an inventor, scientist, and genius who just happens to be a dog. With his son Sherman, he will embark on the most extraordinary adventure imaginable as they race against time to repair history and save the future. Mr. Peabody & Sherman arrives on Digital HD on September 23 and on Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray, and DVD on October 14.
