The genre of today’s film I am reviewing is becoming a more and more regular feature on Cineroom. The plucky animation theme has had great films added to its family this year and Storks is another worthy addition. Storks is directed by Nicholas Stoller and Doug Sweetland with Stoller on writing duties too. Andy Samberg, Katie Crown and Kelsey Grammer are on hand to lend their voices. 6/12/2016 Paterson Film Review. By Adam Ray Palmer
