Review of Leo

Leo (I) (2023)
7/10
Cute family film about a turtle and a lizard
9 December 2023
'Leo' (voiced by Adam Sandler) is a lizard living in an terrarium habitat in a grade school class room with his friend Squirtle (voiced by Bill Burr). After substitute teacher Ms. Malkin (voiced by Cecily Strong) tells the students they are to take one of the class pets home for the night, Leo accidently lets it slip that they can communicate with humans. What ensues thereafter is some much needed therapy, jealousy, and shenanigans - all from the whimsical mind of the Happy Madison production company.

Decent flow and fairly amusing plot. The script is straight forward and doesn't leave a lot to interpretation. There are some adult humor jokes in the film, but they are tame in comparison to other Sandler films, like 'Eight Crazy Nights' (2002).

Worth a watch!
