At Animated Views, Ben Simon examines the Special Edition DVD for Sony Pictures Animation’s Open Season. “Overall this is a schizophrenic movie that has an ill-advised smattering of truly outrageous moments and language sprinkled over what is otherwise what the previews promised: a fairly amusing comedy with an albeit commercially manipulative warm center,” writes Simon. “If it had been one thing or the other, Open Season might have worked, but as it is that outer layer is a bitter and tough nut to crack.”
