Embedded above is the "sizzle reel" for an animated film from Scotland called Sir Billi (discovered via /Film). It is noteworthy for two reasons (well, three, if you count the fact that it features a talking goat in a Game of Death jumpsuit). One, it stars the once-retired Sean Connery as the titular hero, a weird, beaver-helping octogenarian with a penchant for skateboarding and waving his hands around creepily. Two: This movie looks terrible.
The thing to bear in mind is that this is a promo reel, and not really indicative of a finished product. That said, in its current state, this movie looks like the sort of direct-to-video CG-animated creep-fest you'd see in the $3 DVD bin at Wal-mart.
I get that this is Scottish made, and mayhaps that helped draw Sir Connery back into the wonderful world of film for this one last job. However, it might have been nice if he'd, you know, not swallowed a bottle of Quaaludes before getting into the vocal booth. His voice work sounds about as sleepy and uninterested as when he got behind the mic for that From Russia With Love video game back in 2005.
...a skateboard? Really? REALLY?!?
