Not what you're expecting (it's lame)
28 October 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The problem with this movie is that it's trying to be like every popular animated movie there is and isn't striving to be anything new or different. The animation is nice and polished, though the writing can be pretty bad.

The plot for the sister and brother is completely cliche, both of their parents are dead or whatever and now their life is screwed. In short, I didn't really care for the mediocre drama in this film as it felt very unreal and way too unrealistic. Her brother is an a hole especially by how the fact that her sister who's prob only 18 or 20 is working her ass off just to keep the house their living in and to pay for that Taco Bell dinner for them as he doesn't appreciate it whatsoever. He's a little brat, man.

The characters in this movie seriously annoy the hell out of my ass. Especially del who is a complete a hole. He did not even give a single living damn about Marla or how she's literally suffering from her brother being taken away as a slave, and he even freakin says that he doesn't care about her rather just wants the money she's got and he even got mad at her for lying to him. Even though they weren't even friends and she only did it because she wanted to save her brother desperately yet he's still pissed? She even tried to tell him that he lied before all that stuff happened. What the hell? And then for no reason at the end he saves her in the end even though he was pissed off and randomly now acts like she means the world to him??? You dumb asses think this is how you write enemies to friends trope?

Oh my god I hate the songs so much. They don't make you feel anything exciting of new they just make you want them to stop singing. The lyrics are terrible and the singing is garbage. Justin beaber wrote better songs when he was in middle school. The only singer that was good was Meghan trainor which she is probably the only one out of all these people who have experience in singing. Though the song still sounded terrible because of the lyrics. This really doesn't have to be a musical.

A lot of the writing doesn't make real sense. Why did the villain kidnap the agent? Did he somehow know he was on a secret mission with this one girl to save one of the guys he imprisoned because that happens to be her brother? It was just an excuse to make him keep appearing on the screen because he useful for nothing else in the plot after that. Why does this Roman guy want these warriors anyway? So he can take over the world or something? He never really explained why to us. Why does the sister look the exact same as she did in the real world but not her brother? And why does he still have the same voice? It's weird as hell hearing a six year olds voice coming out of shirtless, wannabe Thor Odinson lookin, grown ass ass man.

The agent guy is not even attractive and talks like a virgin that lives in a motel. Do you guys even know what makes a male character the attractive playboy trope?

This movie canonically has a bad ending and it's never gonna get a sequel so everything they did was for nothing because this police officer can't get in his head that some toys on a display is actually somehow another dimension in itself and is located in Brooklyn next to Starbucks.

Lost in Oz (2015–2018)
4/10
It's not really that good
9 August 2024
Although the other reviews would like to worship this animated series, I myself can see why this franchise was rejected by other companies because it is missing a lot of qualities and knowledge of filmmaking.

The writing is way too forward, I mean way too forward. There's a ton of lore in this story but it tries to throw it all on the viewer all at once which is really frustrating. I have never seen a show that throws this much fking lore into one episode in my life, I watched a ton of tv shows as a kid yet none of those shows tried to explain more than 300 things to me in over 25 minutes. It is good to have plot that doesn't dwell on too long and goes straight to the point but it's also important for a story to take time into certain assets especially lore so the viewer can truly experience everything on an even level. I seriously don't understand why the writers rushed for the show to present everything to the viewer since this a animated series. They have plenty of time.

The show also tells the plot and lore incorrectly. You should show not tell, so the viewer can immerse themselves into the world you're telling. All of the lore is explained by words and not scenes of the past or anything which is really boring. It's like you're reading the script and concept of the plot to people.

I personally don't like the chosen art style, it kind of look like a syndrome as an art style. The characters designs are not really clever rather just very random. They do show the characters personalities but they just look really gross and the color scheme is very off. I wouldn't say this world is really immersive or beautiful, it's very sci fi which I find as a pretty odd choice for a WOZ movie.

I seriously can't stand wests voice it got on my fking ass nerves and she's such a cringey edge lord but not in a good way like in a really bad way. Glinda looks like a smashed cranberry that came from someone's ass and the wicked witch is straight up an E girl mixed with a Karen. Why is everyone white ppl except the munchkin ppl? The magic book is a terrible design and looks like something you can get from Michaels or Office Depot.

I swear, why is Dorothy not at least freaking out a little the fact she fell into another universe??? Shouldn't she be at least wondering where the hell she's at??? I mean damn I would and im a grown ass woman! So the Tin man doesn't really exist in this one? Could you not figure out what to do with him? Like Dorothy just came to this land in a matter of 25 minutes and she's all like "im going to save the world" Lost in oz? Wow you really took a lot of time naming your tv show, so original, and guess what? The wizard of OZ ain't even in this one. I think of better plot when Im taking a shet than this!

Home (II) (2015)
5/10
I mea, it's okay...
6 July 2024
I wouldn't say home is literally one the worst movies I've watched but I also definitely wouldn't have the audacity to say this shet a godly masterpiece either. While I did enjoy some of the qualities of this movie, overall there's a lot of frustrating plots.

1 First of all, They interpreted Oh as this oddball who isn't like the rest of the aliens as he likes "non essential" things I guess. Although he is perceived that way ironically he randomly begins to act just like his kind being no different from them.

For example, in the first ten minutes, oh serves his purpose by trying to connect with everyone else by assigning a party but after those ten minutes he acts completely different, what??? He begins to hate things that are "non essential" like when kip puts on the music and he says he only wants friends yet when Kip goes takes a piss at 7 eleven he just tries to leave her there like wtf??? Why was he just gonna leave her there like a jerk??? Oh wants to connect with people yet he doesn't value Kip. Kip wants to find her mom before the world ends he just leaves her there again wtf??? Why he just gonna leave her there like that??? Does he not care that Kip loves her mom and doesn't want to leave her there??? Look I'm not trying to hate on oh or his character but why does he do all of these things that are so selfish if he isn't like his kind?

Kip is the one who isn't supposed to trust him yet oh is the one who betrays the most

2 Kip doesn't annoy me as much as oh but she still kinda gets on my nerves and a lot of the things she says are really annoying. She's an immature teenager who acts like she's a bad Btchh, like do we really need another cringey teen main character? Why did she leave her cat In the car??? Is she not worried he's gonna stray off like what a cat does??? Why is she hiding, if she got caught she would've just been where her mom is by now. The relationship she has with oh just feels so complicated. He doesn't really have any other feelings just like every other alien and he doesn't care or emphasize with Kip missing her mom. How in the world did oh fix her car, like did he go to engineering school or what???

3 The intro is a bit misplaced, it's a bit confusing because we learn 400 years later of why Kip wasn't caught. Why wasn't that explained in the beginning? Why are we starting off with oh? Her character Is pushed off to the middle of the plot why??? Why don't they combine the intro with both oh and kips plot since they both are the main characters?

4 the aliens weren't that developed. They show what doesn't make them but they never really show what makes them. Why do all the aliens have to look the same? That's just boring. I haven't seen a alien design that actually looks interesting or cool. Also, it ruins of how oh is different from them if they all practically looks the same. The fact they don't like things that are non essential is not really that much of a firm concept. Also they treat the leader guy like he's a total jerk and he needs to get kicked out but we see at the end everybody just forgave him and is just partying with him, what???

Overall this movie not that good but not the worst. Y'all can kiss my ass.

Inside Out 2 (2024)
6/10
A warm-hearted movie
23 June 2024
As a kid, I was diagnosed with severe anxiety. I feel like I dealt more with social anxiety than regular anxiety throughout my life but I could relate to Riley's panic attacks extremely.

1 the way anxiety is shown in this movie is amazing . Usually anxiety is a mechanism to make someone feel like they're protecting themselves from something that might happen to them in the future, which is an accurate description for it. Anxiety can make you do a lot of awful things and as you grow older, you do start to pretend to be something you're not in order to feel loved. Although I do not like anxiety being treated as an emotion when it is rather a disorder in someone and is a bigger problem for many people who need to take pills and go to therapy for, still love how it was done in this movie. Though they treat anxiety sometimes like it's just a simple thing people experience, Riley doesn't use any methods in order to control her anxiety actually (disappointing) growing up I had to learn a lot of methods in order to control my anxiety before I grew up and didn't need to no longer. It's not realistic that Riley learned how to control her anxiety that quickly, especially without help. I don't even think Riley actually ever learned she had anxiety in this movie actually.

2 Riley's relationship with her friends was very relatable. Everyone hides how they're mad at someone they love. I loved how her flaws and panic attack actually helped her admit that. I didn't really get why she became friends with those girls in the end, like they treated her like shet throughout the whole movie. What??? Did they just become these angels from heaven automatically in the end? What the hell is goin on? And they made her in into something she's not. How can Riley change and learn how to be confident in who she is if she's still hangs out with these wannabe thugs??? Wouldn't it make more sense if the main girl realized those weren't her real friends because of Riley and made a new team with her friends? The main part of growing up is moving on from people that made you into something you're not, that's how you get over it. Riley never even actually confronts to those girls that she actually wasn't being her real self and she just wanted to be good enough for them, that was really disappointing. I guess screw confronting your true feelings in front of them and moving on, let's just become friends with the a hole girls, yeah happy ending just for kids!

3 I loved embarrassment and envy. Embarrassment was so cute and envy was adorable and funny. I laughed a lot whenever envy was on. I don't really get why enui is named enui, like everybody else has simple names like joy, anger and disgust why not just call her boredom? But her design was very well done for her emotion, she was a fun character to watch. I really wished they had some sort of attraction emotion or mechanic in this movie since that is such a big part of growing up into a teenager. They do slightly imply and mention that but it's not really ever represented. It wasn't represented in the last movie and this was the perfect age for Riley to show that part of her growing up.

4 another thing is the movie only really talks about anxiety and nothing much else. It's mainly about anxiety basically. As a woman, I'm so happy to see this movie was directed by a female creator. Although this movie was created by a woman, The movie shys away from topics like ministration and the female body in general. Riley grows taller I guess but that's about it for her body. I'm not saying they should animate Riley with some huge kardashian tets or whatever but can she at least wear a small training bra or something? Most females do get their breast at 13. I like how they made Riley have acne but she only has one pimple and she doesn't even notice it. None of the other teenager in this movie have acne like at all. Almost every teenager I see in real life has acne. Acne is a serious part of insecurity as a teenager, where's the insecurity emotion?

5 I loved how the main message of this movie is that there is always both bad and good things about us, but whether it's good or bad it's still apart of us and something that we should always accept. The main solution to anxiety is to simply accept the bad parts of you which is a perfect message for a movie about the real world and emotions. It's a beautiful message to teenagers that they are allowed to be imperfect and accept it because the older you get, the harder it is to face that you will never be perfect.

Overall I just think that this film shys away from many things in order for parents not to sue their film. I think turning red represents puberty better in general since it didn't shy away from any more personal topics. Turning red represented sexual attraction, but not in a way where It was gross or inappropriate. This movie could've done the same thing as turning red such as attraction and ministration, it doesn't have to be a big thing in the film but it could at least actually exist in a good amount but rather those big parts of life (especially in a woman's life which Riley is a woman) are simply out of the picture in order to avoid conflict from guardians.

But I just have to say, I could relate to Riley's video game crush asfff. That is fknnn me sis.

Cats (2018)
1/10
Y'all are STONED!!!
21 June 2024
Warning: Spoilers
So I watched this movie for free, right? I thought this was gonna be like this secret life of pets knockoff comedy but it turns out this is the secret life of pets meets the last of us and I'm not kidding you, sis.

Where do I even begin god... first of all I have to warn you that this movie is extremely confusing all the way through. Although the concept may seem interesting At first the creators didn't give enough damn time for this movie for anyone to actually understand it

1 Cape is an extremely bland main character. He's basically this huge ray of sunshine who is mentally obsessed with this one place his dad told him called peachtopia and told him his mom was there or whatever and it turns out she's actually dead. What a great guy. I didn't enjoy any of the characters in this movie because they were nothing more than their purpose for the plot. Cape is extremely obsessed with peachtopia but there's nothing really else to him, his overly 100% optimistic attitude got on my damn nerves especially when there is literally nothing to be happy about goin on in this movie. It was annoying and frustrating to see cape not understand that the fact his dad only wants to protect him from the world like every parent, and he should've just listened to him. I wish they gave cape more character traits other than just optimistic, positive and overall innocent. Nobody likes a character that's perfect and cape is that "perfect" "I never do anything wrong" kind of character.

2 oh my god, the plot is so confusing. So they have this necklace marble thingy (which has the most boring laziest design) and throughout the whole movie they try to protect this one crystal ball to not get in the hands of the evil villain guy. You must think it's because it's actually important to the story and has something to do with something really important, right??? Well actually it turns out that the crystal ball had nothing special to it. Nope, I'm not joking and the cat deliberately says it was just a useless piece of junk. So why the hell did they waste their whole time all to protect this stupid marble when it wasn't anything important in the first place??? You got us all so worked up to find out what's the purpose of this possibly magic crystal and it turns out it wasn't worth a damn???what??? Like are you so lazy, you just gave up on making this crystal actually being worth protected throughout this entire movie??? Are you too stupid to figure out what to make special about this one crystal so you just gave up??? Why does this guy even want this crystal anyways? He's gonna kill himself over getting this stupid regular marble back? Why don't he just go to Michael's and get him a whole jar of marbles??? There was absolutely no reason why he should want it.

3 peachtopia is seriously the most confusing place of all time. It's like they couldn't decide if they wanted it on land or in water so they kind of just did both in the weirdest way. We don't actually learn anything at all about peachtopia or what it even is exactly. It's like anything in this movie having a real purpose is just unheard of. We only get to see it for a few minutes in the movie and it just looks like an ordinary place. There's nothing unique or magical about it. Just because it has all these mountains and pink flower trees everywhere doesn't mean that it special. Mountains and cherry blossom trees are found through almost everywhere in China, which is where this movie is placed. I don't feel like I'm anywhere different or out of this world, I still just feel like I'm still somewhere in China. I don't feel like the characters actually accomplished anything by going to peachtopia because cape wanted to find his mom there but his mom is dead anyway, so what's the point? After they find this place and they've been there for only five minutes or less they just decide to go home. What??? Cape literally almost got thrown in fire just to get to here! They suffered so much just to get to this one place and they're not even gonna stay for at least a couple of days??? Why the hell would cape wanna go home anyways if he complained about being cooped up in there his whole life??? The whole point of this movie was to get cape out of there and the ending is him going back???

4 they have absolutely no relationship with the owner of this movie which is another reason of why should cape go home. She not important to the story at all, the writers just push away her character completely. We don't ever see her getting worried about her pets being missing. Plus she is seriously a terrible pet owner, who the hell is gonna leave their window open while it's thundering outside, letting your cat sit by the window like an idiot? Why in the world did she get a bird??? I thought she was a cat person??? Macaws cost over 10,000$ but she lost it the day she got her??? Macaws require a professional exotic handler, she can't even take care of a cat!

5 the villain is overall lame. It's an interesting idea of him being a glass maker but what motivates him to be evil is very poor. Basically he just wants to kill animals to make his glass or whatever because I guess he can't design anything else out of glass that isn't an animal. He's upset that no one buys his glass, I was like " yeah no shet no one likes your glass art, maybe because it's bigger than the size of their house and you kill animals just to make it!" Why is he so obsessed with glass anyway? And why the hell are raccoons working for him??? Does this dude know how to speak raccoon??? Why doesn't he hire a human to do his dirty work? You know? Something more sophisticated and capable? There is absolutely no reason in this movie of why he wants that crystal so bad, it's pathetic. What's he gonna do with it? Wear it and feel pretty??? He's old as shet, your life is over, dude. Stop worrying about glass and go to the olds folks home. Shouldn't this guy be in jail for animal cruelty by now? Especially if one of the animals is someone's pet?

6 the animals in this movie don't act like animals which is an extremely big problem. For god sake there's cats drinking licker in this moving I'm not even joking what the hell. They could've done something more clever like making cream or milk as their alcohol. Yes, I know people can do whatever they want with cartoon cats but they act so much like people and nothing like cats they could've made this movie with them being humans. They can't even land on their feet when they fall, they show no natural cat like nature and it falters their character. Even anthropomorphic character act somewhat like the animal their based on in movies, so why can't they at least a little? It would bring so much life and character if they acted more like the animal they are by nature. Also, the voice acting is absolutely terrible in this movie, I get that this is originally in Chinese but I cannot.

7 the movie is way more gloomy than what it really needs to be. Even when they try to make funny jokes to lighten things up, it fails miserably and it's always such a small gesture that you probably won't even actually notice they were trying to be funny. Most of the plot is just them running away from something or running to get something. They oddly become friends with the raccoons that tried to kill them throughout the whole movie which absolutely makes no sense. They didn't even actually save them, and that doesn't even make up for all the times they did try to kill them. And the raccoon guy just says at the end "I've been wanting to get rid of that job for so long" or something and I'm like he didn't want to kill them this whole time??? Why didn't he say it before then??? Why did he keep working for that old fart anyways if he didn't want to? It's not like that guy can find those raccoons anyway, it's not like they have an address or ID a or whatever. They can just run away and live their lives freely as raccoons. And cape is just gonna go back home without saying goodbye to his friends???

8 how in the world does cape know how to make an airplane?? He's like five in human years. Cape has been searching for weeks on how to make one in front of his dad and didn't notice??? How did his owner not notice?

9 capes mom is the most useless piece in this movie. We don't get to learn about her so there's not really a reason we should feel that sad for her. Why in the world was she by the window while it was thundering? That's just stupid! You have to be the biggest idiot to just walk in thunder! Cape does feel sad about his mom being dead but the movie doesn't give the time for cape to actually work out his feelings. The ending of the movie tries to work out capes feelings but the movie is already damn over so I guess that's not going to happen! The cover of this movie doesn't even show the depression this movie presents. They ain't ever happy in this movie. Why do we need another movie named "cats"? Are you too lazy to think of something better?

10 The ending is so rushed, we don't even get to see cape and his dad going back home we only kind of see it in the credits like how lazy can you be??? They spend 1$ on trying to make those credits fun to watch.

Seriously this is one of the worst movies I have ever witnessed. I'd rather look at the wall for 24 hours than watch this again. I hope every person who worked on this movie is goin to hell cause y'all lazy asffff.
