BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Mosley likes BFDI Reborn Battle The best animated action film I've ever seen. I really loved this film. The action sequences were funny. The reason why I love this movie is because, at the beginning of this film, when it says "This is a story about stick figures...", the opening sequence in space is a parody of the beginning of Toy Story 2, the Japan sequence is a parody of The Wolverine, the Eiffel Tower sequence is a parody of Rush Hour 3 and the ending scene is nearly a parody of King Kong.
adampowell65 Dick Figures was something I enjoyed watching at first. I found the earlier episodes simplistic and charming in their own way. While the show did go downhill for me around the third season, I did remain cautiously optimistic about the feature film, especially since the making-of videos did seem to imply that they were putting a lot of work into making it. Besides, I think Ed Skudder is a good artist and animator, so I was curious to see how it would turn out.While I think it's far from Skudder's best, I thought it was okay. If you're a fan of Dick Figures, you'll definitely get a kick out of it. If, like me, you're not the biggest fan but you don't mind it, then it might be worth your time. The story is fairly simple, just two guys going on a big road trip adventure and there's some jokes along the way. Simple stories are all fine and dandy, but not when they're as predictable as this. It's basically the same story as the Smosh movie, complete with the same tropes; they bicker, they argue, they have a big fight and separate before making up and saving the day, it's about as predictable as you can get.As for the jokes, there's the occasional clever moment, but it's hardly laugh-out-loud hilarious. It's like Superbad or something along those lines; pretty childish, but sometimes it's charming. Except unlike Superbad, the charming moments are pretty rare. I'm just giving credit where it's due and saying that those moments are there.For me, the big selling point was the animation. I wasn't expecting it to be amazing, since it was animated in Flash and the characters are stick figures, but I actually found it really nice to look at. The backgrounds, while simple, are nicely done, and the character animation is very smooth and expressive. I got the impression that the animators working on this film were conscious of the fact that the designs were incredibly simplistic, so they did their best to make up for it with some really expressive animation, and, like I said, it does look nice. Given how limited the show's animation is, this is an impressive upgrade.Dick Figures: The Movie is a straightforward movie that, at times, is downright predictable, but it has enough charm in the animation and look to at least recommend a shot. As an animator, I got a kick out of the visuals, and as a film fan I got a kick out of the characters (sometimes) and Nick Keller's score, though I'm not sure if those good points were quite enough to make up for the predictable story and stupid jokes. Overall, it was okay.
zif ofoz .... were illegal this flick would get a life sentence in solitary confinement.This ridiculous nonsense of a movie (or whatever they are calling it - the title says Movie) is a real nerve rattling rehash of a suspense/ science fiction/folklore/adventure/fantasy told with stick figures as the main characters - Red & Blue - are the names. There is a girlfriend named Pink. And then a raccoon!The producers lost the purpose of this nut-ball bore of a movie by forgetting it's suppose to be "stick figures" - a movie with stick figures for everything. Instead they throw in illustration and photos. Why? And then the voice overs are like a chalk squeak across a blackboard!This must be a flick for the stoned tween set - boobs & drinking figure prominently throughout!
guldtoons Alright, I'll admit I was a tad bit skeptical when I first heard about DF, but after I watched it, I found it so hilarious that I decided to see the movie. It is a very enjoyable film, a 9/10 stars if I may say so myself. One of the things I really enjoyed about this film was the plot. It never felt like Red or Blue ever used an utterly stupid solution to their problems, and many of the conflicts they face were beyond incredible. Also, it doesn't stray far from the series at all! Most films based on a series forgets the point of the series, but this one looks like it could've been an episode. The thing that really got me was the lesson of the film. While most films with the "friendship is important" morale seem overused, this one really does it right. Seriously, it really moved me how Red finally started to see how much trouble he was causing Blue by being such a jerk, when Blue literally devoted his life to taking care of him. This is a must-see for fans of the series, or just someone that needs a fun movie with action, romance, comedy, and drama!
