LouHomey From my favorite movies..
Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
gaps77 This film isn't intended for adults, but as a Parent who watches many films with his little boy I found it very entertaining in comparison to many of the others that he likes. The style of Animation is very good, individually identifiable, vivid and very colourful, with different styles of animation adopted throughout for various reasons ...even has sock puppets! Good Voice cast, lots of childish humour, and it has a good use of music (at a good volume ratio to the dialogue, not overly loud), the tune at the credits is very catchy. Check this out, my boy is almost four and has watched this several times since it's release on iTunes.
Jay McFarland Anybody looking for something simple to watch on Netflix, or are looking for a new animated movie to show their child/ren, this is the film to do it. This film was clearly met for children, but as an adult it's still entertaining to watch and sit through.
highmaster16 This is not a good movie by any means. The characters are pretty annoying and the animation does not work, despite it trying to pander to the original comics. The voice actors are just unbearable, and you just don't care about the dumb plot. It's not 'The Nut Job' bad but still quite bad in itself.
Ersbel Oraph I was hoping for something like the Sausage Party, or a dumbed down, family friendly South Park. And this is not. It is dumbed down. It is family friendly. It seems to make fun, while at the same time embracing, the Super Hero culture. It might work as a filler and the story runs smooth, yet at the end it's still: so what? It looks like it has been done by too many minds and hands and many things do not fit. First you have the mandatory school as a place of killing the fun and the creativity and than you have a few pro teacher union slogans fit in.
