\"\"<\/a>The Star<\/em><\/strong> technically isn\u2019t a great animated movie by any stretch but it is perfectly safe and unlike The Emoji Movie<\/em>, did illicit a few laughs from me and never once came across as cynical, and the voice talents was pretty impressive while the animation, albeit nothing extraordinary, was passable.<\/p>\n

PLOT SYNOPSIS<\/span><\/h3>\n
\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

A small but brave donkey named Bo (STEVEN YEON) yearns for a life beyond his daily grind at the village mill. One day he finds the courage to break free and teams up with Ruth (AIDY BRYANT) the loveable sheep and Dave (KEEGAN-MICHAEL KEY) the hilarious dove with lofty aspirations. Along with three wisecracking camels (TYLER PERRY, OPRAH WINFREY, TRACY MORGAN) and some eccentric stable animals, Bo and his new friends follow the star on the adventure of their dreams and become part of the greatest story ever told.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
