Linkshoch Wonderful Movie
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
adampkalb There was tons of potential for live action Cartoon Network, but it failed. Re-Animated has a lot of problems to talk about, and I'm not sure where to begin. Considering Tim McKeon and Adam Pava usually write cartoons, I can see why they wrote the live action act like a cartoon, but they made the characters act like they were from different programs. Jimmy's father and Sonny Appleday, for example, act too wacky to be from the same show as Jimmy, Jimmy's mother and Yancy. Re-Animated on principle is an insulting homage to Walt Disney, with his edible paint-eating and suggestions that he saw his cartoon creations through schizophrenia.The other biggest problem with this film is that Craig is a horrible friend to Jimmy and pushes him around. No good friendship would have someone pushing over a pushover. I know Re-Animated was going for a message that your true friends, whom you know each other for who you really are, are more important than your fans, but when your only friend has done nothing but push you around and tries to make you look bad when you had a hospital-level emergency and accuses you of ditching them for that, it nullifies that moral of the story. I would forgive this film's writers for that if they had Craig go through the same character development as Jimmy and had him learn to be a better friend as well, but (sigh) that never happens.Shame on this film for thinking that animation isn't profitable. The Emoji Movie also sucked and ripped off other great modern animated films, but that still had more respect for the medium of animation because at least it knew animation was profitable, when Re-Animated doesn't. If you want to see a good version of Re-Animated, go watch The Toycracker. I'm not interested enough in the series Out of Jimmy's Head to talk about how better or worse that is, but considering how terrible Craig acted in Re-Animated, I'm glad Out of Jimmy's Head got a replacement Craig and Robin since their original actors probably also hated their characters too much.
luigismexy I cant even watch the poorly made title for this movie without pouring my eyes with bleach.
Yoshi6666 Though I have the program they edited this movie on, this movie was absolutely terrible. The acting was clueless, I didn't even know when they were making a joke or when they were really acting. The director seriously needs to wake up and see what was happening. I mean, the family was odd, and the whole plot was just a waste of two hours. If you want to watch some good movies, watch HBO. Dominic Janes did a pretty swell job at some points, but the rest of the cast I can't even describe. I mean, who in the world would be in the hospital in a costume and preparing surgery on a boy. The effect of how Dominic flew in the air when the train hit him was clearly fake, even with the lines not there.Thus, do not watch this film they say on Cartoon Network as the best movie ever. The cast will quite disappoint you.
thomaswords This is a real dark day for the old Cartoon Network. Not only do they begin to make non-animated fare for their sinking ship of a network, but it's terrible animated fare aimed at the lowest common denominator audience of shut ins and agoraphobic, obese pre-teens. Everything in this movie is so "turned up to 11" that nothing makes an impression.One thing that did stand out was the terrible soundtrack. The music that accompanies scene changes is exactly like the music that follows the kids around on every Disney and Nick show. It's obvious that the CN is trying to catch up to them and make their own terrible garbage packages for kids.They're the new Fox network. They cancel anything with a hope of being successful, and they greenlight stuff like this. Alternately, the Adult Swim line up apparently greenlights anything that blows in the door. It's obvious that they don't know what works in the post Aqua Teen tastescape, and they're content to flail around looking for it for as long as they need.
