Hertz concluded , " Still , the movie wisely takes a page from Pixar 's playbook to fill the movie with so much well @-@ done slapstick humor , action , goofy characters , and genuine fun that boys won 't feel like the ads gave them the old bait @-@ and @-@ switch to trick them into a ' girl ' movie .
