Synopsis

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Bumpy Chip It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
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.
Ben Smith This show is super strange a bit of an acquired taste, the first time my friend showed me this i was like, what the f*@# am i watching, but it grows on you so fast and soon becomes your favorite thing ever. No other show can be this smart and this dumb at the same time. All of the jokes are so meta, they hit on so many levels. Its a TV show about a TV show about a children's hospital, that likes to remind you that its a TV show. Sometimes i have to pause it because i am laughing so hard that i can't breathe and i start choking.And its not even the fact that this show is so funny, its surreal, like some sort of salvador dali greys anatomy acid trip... And it makes a kind of social commentary at times, that is just... Well how do i describe it? One episode they are spoofing the whole Cyrano thing, with the friend around the corner whispering you advice trope, only they keep outsourcing their advice so it becomes one giant game of telephone, only to reveal later that the girl he has been trying to woo has been doing the same exact thing. My favorite episode was the season 5 finale where the whole thing is shot with this hilarious but also super well shot and dramatic sequence, which captures both the emotional essence of something truly moving, as well as the comedic infusion of something created to parody that genre. Not to mention Kat accidentally saying "i love you, bye" while calling in a bomb threat. Her delivery, priceless. Or the episode where its supposed to be a parody of a live 3 camera show only it ends in a complete disaster.Just watch it.
king_jamz Adult Swim should stick to cartoon and other animation programs. Children's Hospital is just awful. A show so stupid, that I'd imagine you'd have to be stupid yourself to enjoy the show. I actually forced myself to watch several episodes of the show to see if it was any good. In my opinion, every episode was worse. After 4 or 5 agonizing episodes, I finally had enough. Most of the humor is lewd and obscene or just plain ignorant and stupid. There is no sophisticated, witty, or satirical humor in the show at all. However, if you do like this show, then to each his own. Everyone has a different sense of humor. However, as for me, this show is definitely one of the worst.
cieran84 I really hate when old people post about comedy shows that they just don't get (like Nimue1016). It's clear from that post Nimue already hates Adult Swim shows, which begs the question of why they are even watching Adult Swim to begin with. The fact that he/she refers to Rob Corddry as "the director" highlights the fact that they're clueless about the subject with which they are writing. I'm guessing he/she also hates Aqua Teen Hunger Force, The Brak Show, Robot Chicken, etc. However, if you're under 30 and like a good comedy, this show is pretty damned funny. Rob Corddry is great as the clown doctor, and the rest of the cast is dynamite too. There's a great style to it with the "previously on..." way of showing new elements of the story as if it had already been included in past episodes. I especially love the "previously on" at the start of Episode 4, where Dr. Cat Black breaks up with tons of doctors, including some multiple times, and once while giving the doctor a hand-job. Lots of great sexual humor in this show, mocking shows like Grey's Anatomy. Definitely worth checking out if you have a funny bone in your body (which, apparently, Nimue1016 does not).
goatmetal-1 Much better than I thought it would be. The jokes were well written and executed. There's actually original ideas here that they play with even into other episodes. The thing I really like is that (so far), they seem to be not holding back on how far a joke can go or even as to what subject matter. I hate shows where they have to be careful not to upset a certain group of people. There's also a wide range of celebrities appearing in the show. It even looks as though Henry Winkler will be a regular in the show. At least that's what I got from watching the upcoming scenes from the trailer. EXCELLENT!!! Finally a comedy that's well written, and that I can look forward to upcoming episodes.
