Paul McCartney

The Music and Animation Collection (Miramax)

Paul McCartney indulges his love of animation, marrying it to original music geared for rugrats. “Tropic Island Hum,” featuring anthropomorphic animals gathered on an island to escape being dinner, is little more than PETA propaganda.”Tuesday” is based on a fanciful book of the same name by David Wiesner, in which frogs float through a town on their lily pads. “Rupert and the Frog Song” is marked with old-fashioned animation and a cute song, “We All Stand Together.” Kids will love it, but parents will chew limbs off to escape.
