By the end of this movie I didn't care about any of the characters except Nate. Every punchline was either about how awful Andy's work environment was, or about her weight.
Honestly, this movie was a best-case scenario for a 2011 Muppet movie. I loved The Muppets as a kid, but even if you've never watched them before you'd probably enjoy this lighthearted movie. Celebrity cameos all over the place, a very goofy plot, and Disney doing their best to be self-aware in the 2010s.
This really wasn't a bad movie! But in the end I didn't really feel like it all came together. A lot of the symbolism felt pretty forced and the supporting characters didn't really keep me interested.
It's funny to think this review will sit between the other films on my watchlist; it's unlike anything I've ever watched before. Don't expect distinguished cinematography or audio mixing, but do expect a very raw glimpse through the eyes of a filmmaker who will not give up his craft for anything. The more I think about this film the more it grows on me.
I watched this movie hoping I'd better understand The Room, and instead just came out more confused. I'll be watching it next!
I can see why this is such a well-regarded film, and it was fun to catch references I've heard my whole life. It's not really the type of story that appeals much to me, but i respect how carefully this film told it.
This movie is one of the most unique I've ever seen. It has such a hairy plot and pulls it off so well. Everything about it feels early 2000s to me. There are so many visually amusing scenes.
This is a well-produced film about insanity.
If you are a Car Guy and know the story of Ken Miles, I can honestly recommend this movie. It made me laugh a few times, the cinematography is tight, and there are so many cuts to pedals gettin STOMPED gears getting SWITCHED cars going VROOM
This movie had been recommended to me so many times, and it was still better than I expected 😊
I love a movie that takes risks. Pixar developed a character in their classic style, and then killed him! In the first few minutes of the story! What followed was a wildin plot, beautifully animated in New York City!? With Tina Fey voicing the supporting role?! In my eyes, these were big risks, and Soul brought them together as a beautifully human animation.
This didn't feel as polished as other Coen Brothers films, but that's a very high bar. I do like the premise that nothing goes right for Larry, right up through the end of the movie.
This film takes so many risks. It goes to yard sales, Saturday bingo competitions, and Jane's gigs as an adult film star. There's a chihuahua in nearly every scene. Yet the entire time I felt engaged by a well-paced plot, and the insanity of life through Jane's eyes.
Honestly, I didn't love it. I don't feel like I connected with these humans before they turned inhuman. Maybe if I were to watch it again I would pick up on more of the intricacies of these relationships, but doing so would entail sitting through such a boring intro again...
Mr. President, we can't let Funky Boy destroy Roboworld!
There's something about this movie that makes it feel perfect for what it is. It was also really fun to watch a father/daughter acting duo
You can always tell things are getting crazy when you shave some peaches to take out a housekeeper in order to get your mom a job...
Wow I wonder what the ceiling would look like if I took that many tranquilizers...
There's a lot to love about this movie, but neither Tom nor Meg's performances blew me away. For a romantic movie with a hard-to-believe plot I need to at least believe the characters love each other.
A very sweet film that lived up to the Ghibli Studio hype. I recommend!
Oh how I dream to be one of Jeff Goldblum's research turtles...
I can see how this is a classic, but it really didn't keep me interested or horrified. Really impressed that Mr. Myers got that tombstone upstairs however.
Honestly all I could ask for in the sequel to Borat. If you loved the first moviefilm this is a must-see!
I love this movie just as much as I did when I was small.
Watched the directors cut, and drank every time they got depth charged. I am now thoroughly plastered ☃️ what a movie
Do I like this movie? I'm not sure. But it is fun to watch!
I can appreciate the effort National Geographic put into this film, but I didn't come out of it feeling like they fully captured the fair nor any of the individuals they followed. Best part about this movie was being in it for a second 😝
A beautiful, quietly powerful snapshot of childhood
