"Turbo" Full Movie Trailer, Cast, and Information

From the animation studio that brought you Madagascar, and the action-adventure animation movie, Kung Fu Panda, DreamWorks Animation brings you yet another action-adventure story you would not forget. "Turbo" (in 3D and 2D) tells the story of an ordinary garden snail who dreams of becoming a fast racer. Theo, the garden snail, leaves his snail community to begin his journey and fulfil his most awaited dream. When a freak accident changes his DNA structure via altering his molecular structure, Theo becomes Turbo, a fast-moving snail with incredible speed that can reach up to 200 miles per hour.

"Turbo" Synopsis/Story/Plot/Summary

"Turbo," says director and co-screenwriter David Soren, is a mash-up of superhero and racing film genres, but “at its heart, TURBO really is an underdog story. The character Turbo has all the hallmarks of an underdog. You expect nothing of snails, whose lives are stacked with obstacles, like being really, really slow. But once you dig into it, a snail is the perfect character to have at the center of an underdog story.”

But turning an everyday, garden snail into a mighty mollusk who travels at super-speed? “Turbo’s dream of becoming something that’s completely in opposition to its nature is ripe for conflict, surprises and a satisfying payoff” when the dream becomes reality,” says Soren.

In the movie, Ryan Reynolds lends his voice as Turbo, an underdog garden snail who dreams of escaping the mundane confines of his sluggish community. Frustrated with life in the slow lane, he has a fantasy of racing glory and an adrenaline-fuelled life that’s a far cry from the yard where he lives with his cautious brother Chet (Paul Giamatti). Frustrated by his own physical limitations, Theo (Turbo) wants to move at high speed and is inspired by his hero, a French Canadian racing driver of the Indy 500.

“Turbo is a guy who sees himself on the wrong side of destiny. Unfortunately he's a garden snail. And garden snails usually fail to register even the tiniest blip on the spectrum of greatness. He is completely disillusioned with his lot in life and with the perception of his life as ‘ordinary’. He sees himself as a guy who is on the very cusp of true greatness. My favorite underdog story? I loved ROCKY,” says Reynolds. “It is one of the greatest ever told.”

On July 9, the official "Turbo" website in the Philippines was launched in connection with the upcoming premiere of the said action-adventure movie. You may access the "Turbo" Philippines website at http://www.turbomovie-ph.com/.
