Jesse Eisenberg is totally miscast.


This movie is really well made movie. The story, quality and everything well laid out. One problem for me is Jesse Eisenberg's voice doesn't really match up with Blu's expressions. I do like Jesse Eisenberg in Zombie Land but no, not for Blu. It should have been better with a older guy than Jesse with high voice. I mean it could level the movie up. Don't you think?

I thought he was fine as Blu. I found it to be kinda cute.

While I get what you're saying, I feel the complete opposite. I think Jesse was PERFECT for the role of Blu. He is supposed to be a geeky, timid house pet and I think Jesse's voice portrayed that very well.

Exactly. I found Blu's voice very annoying.
