There's a lot of questionable scenes in this film (watch it for yourself and you'll find out), but this might be one of my favorite comedies I've watched yet. Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn have perfect chemistry, and the film takes a small idea and turns it into a 2-hour film (a good one, at that).

Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman
(2003 Video)
Solid enough
9 February 2021
I think this film unofficially closes the animated Batman trilogy that includes Batman: Mask of the Phantasm and Batman & Mr. Freeze: SubZero, and if it does, this feature does not hold up to those two. However, if you think of it as a stand-alone film, then it really is pretty decent.
First off, nice voice acting from Kevin Conroy yet again as Batman. We also get some strong performances from the likes of Kelly Ripa and Kyra Sedgwick. The characters are also really well built, too, although they don't offer the depth of previous animated Batman flicks.
The animation quality may be a step down from other DC animated films, but it's still fun to look at and has a more cartoonish feel, despite feeling like it was made by a fan. The story lacks a bit of cohesion compared to the previous films in the trilogy, but it still has a somewhat-surprising twist and could confuse viewers a bit. Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman may act a bit brain dead, but it still manages to put its clues together to make a thrilling adventure.

Ben 10: Race Against Time
(2007 TV Movie)
A disrespect to the animated series
9 February 2021
This is the first out of two live-action Ben 10 films, and all I can say is that if this is what the first one is like, the second one probably sucks, too. Heck, I'd even recommend the rebooted Ben 10 animated series over this.
The acting is extremely poor, with the only exception being a passable performance from Lee Majors. It's almost laughable, but this film generates no chuckles whatsoever, with nearly all the humor missing its target by a mile. Only a few lines from Heatblast at the beginning actually signify any sort of effort put into making the movie be funny for even a split second. Director Alex Winter smothers the film with unnecessary filler and boring battle scenes that try to be cool, but will likely only entertain anyone under the age of 8.
The only redeeming quality of the film is the inventive special effects. Even though they look sub-par, even by 2007 standards, they're fun to look at and they stay true to the television series. Also, the film had a tight budget of only $5 million, considering it is a television film.
To sum it up, Ben 10: Race Against Time's creative visuals can't compensate for sloppy performances, a jumbled story, and humor that more often than not misses.

The third best LEGO movie
9 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The only problem I have is the music. I didn't really get into it, except for "Catchy Song" and the Everything Is Awesome remix. I felt the music took up about 1/4 of the movie, which I didn't like. Other than that, this movie was AWESOME. The story was engaging, the plot twist was unexpected, the animation was excellent, and the characters were likable. Go see this movie on the big screen now!
The Kid Who Would Be King
(2019)
Hilarious medieval adventure
3 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Some films surpass my expectations (etc. Spider-Verse, Paddington), and some films fall short of my expectations (etc. Marmaduke, The Lego Ninjago Movie). I expected this film to be a fun family film about a medieval legend modernized. And it was. The only problem I had was the pace in the first half, but that didn't stop the rest of the movie from being hilarious in every way possible. The performances were good, although I was slightly disappointed that the dad wasn't shown in the film. The visuals were the best part of the film, looking creepy and enthralling at the same time. It gave me shivers when Morgana appeared on the screen. The story was unpredictable, although the quick pace at the start bothered me. All in all, this is a film that deserves to be seen on the big screen.
Funny Roblox Gameplay
2 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Yes, it may get boring due to the repetitive gameplay and only playing simulators and tycoons, but they are HILARIOUS! PairOfDucks gives out a few good jokes, but MrQuackerJack is the one to always screw stuff and make me laugh. If you want awesome gameplay, don't watch this. But if you want to listen to these two act like idiots, then this is just right for you!
It was funny

Jack Frost
(1979 TV Movie)
Underrated Christmas classic
1 January 2019
If you like "Rudolph" and "Frosty", then you'll love this film. The animation is amazing, as always. The story is a bit off, but it's pretty good. The voice acting is so-so. The characters are likable, especially Jack Frost himself. Find this online, get some McDonalds, and chill! (ha ha puns)
Frosty the Snowman
(1969 TV Short)
A classic holiday special
1 January 2019
What's not to like? The animation is beautiful, the story is delightful, the voice acting is on point, the characters are likable, and the iconic "Happy Birthday" line. Oh boy, that is awesome. While the sequels aren't so great, this film portrays a new level of holiday media, and pushed the boundaries of holiday films in general. If you're displeased with this joyful piece of art, get some help.
MrQuackerJack is the highlight

Better than other survival series
31 December 2018
His best series so far
31 December 2018
PairOfDucks is not very funny at all, no, no, no. But he is funny-and interesting-here. The thing that makes this better than his other series is the fact that its a suspenseful game he's playing each episode. And with MrQuackerJack, that makes things better. If you have Amazon, search this up and watch it. It's free.
Better than expected
30 December 2018
While the animation may be somewhat outdated, this film provides a strong cast and an emotional story that helps it progress better than most animated movies. It's too bad not enough people knew about it, because the idea of an animated film about a dog in World War 1 doesn't sound very interesting. Fortunately, it is.
You've fixed your reputation, Sony Pictures Animation.

WOW. I saw this movie on Christmas Eve, and it was like an early Christmas present for me. Where do I start? When Incredibles 2 came out, I thought, "No other animated film could be better than this this year." And I was right. For about 6 months. The visuals, my guy! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me! It's better than any film Pixar has produced (with the exception of Coco). The story is great. Hey, it's from Phil Lord, one of the directors of The LEGO Movie, another visually stunning film. The voice acting and music are both phenomenal, and I have to give a truckload of credit to Shameik Moore for his performance as Miles Morales. This movie just proves that anyone can wear the mask.
Fantastic Four
(2015)
Fantastic Bore
28 December 2018
Warning: Spoilers
Now, the visuals look the slightest bit decent, which means bad in my book. The actors actually tried to do their best, but it was covered by a lot of crap. The story is boring and differs away from the comic books. The plot is just too confusing for even the smartest man alive to figure it out. The humor is not funny at all. The editing sucks. And the direction. Josh Trank, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? From Chronicle to this? Why? To be short, this movie sucks.
I would rather go blind before watching this, so I wouldn't be able to watch it.
