Popcorn and Inspiration: ‘Turbo': The Tale of How a Snail Became Very Fast

Giant robots, monsters, and oceans of digital wizardry can’t hold a candle to the simple story of a cartoon snail. You’ll yawn at this summer’s realistic robots, but you’ll be thoroughly engrossed in the tale of this tiny toon called Turbo, even if you’re not 6 years old. Good storytelling always rules.
