Mmm.. I didn't notice bad puppetry on the Guinea pig- in the way you mean it. CGI or a "Babe"-enhanced might have been better, but the puppet worked visually for me, except for not moving its mouth when it spoke- bad lip-sync moreso than anything else.
Yeah.. someone compared this movie to an 80's teen film in its simplicity and general lack of plot twist. And, well, there were no plot twists.. none. I knew how the characters were going to unfold from their first moments on screen, but, I did enjoy the ride. Good acting, some nice throwaway lines "Her.. evil twin?", and that pound-the-floor ripple effect alone was worth $4 of the ticket price.
