  Let's talk about babymakin' or, as what I would like to say, the "S-word." I'm not talking about sex, rather I'm talking about the WAG movie "Storks." These storks are known for delivering babies, until one stork (Trejo) screwed up everything. Eighteen years later, the film follows a stork named Junior (Samberg) who's one step closer in his dream of becoming boss. The only problems is, a baby is accidentally produced by an annoying girl (Crown). So together, they must embark on a quest to find the family of the baby.
  
  Nicholas Stoller recruits a huge amount of heart and humor, turning an animated picture into one of the best movies of 2016. It's all a lot of fun and laugh-out-loud. It has plenty of silliness to charm young viewers such as slapstick and juvenile gags, and it also contains some references for the profit of adults. Every joke hits its target. When it's supposed to be heartfelt, the audience feels blue. But perhaps, it is the memorable tandem between Tulip and Junior that serves as the foundation of the film.
  
  Storks also brings the innate spirit of its characters to life as they are perfectly matched with their voice actors - Kelsey Gramer as Hunter and Stephen Glickman as Pigeon Toady - a trait that is rare to animated films. The narrative and editing are fast when they needed to be, and subtle for what they are attempting to be.
  
  VERDICT: Hilarious and heartfelt in all the right ways, Storks soars above with flying colors.
