Our Drawings (2023)

My review for Our Drawings

[2/10 · 22 February 2024]

Here's my review for Our Drawings.

This movie may be one hour long, but it has multiple negative qualities, such as that the pacing of the film can either go at a breakneck speed and all of a sudden get slow and boring, and the story/world-building is also confusing and incoherent at the same time. Also it doesn't take the time to introduce some of the other characters, and rather introduces the same character we already met (Paige) multiple times. I'm curious, who's the name of the furry blue guy with bunny ears or the floating rock guy with sunglasses?

It does have potential, but the execution made it hard to tell what's going on even less than 10 minutes into the movie, and things mostly just happen or even repeat (like Paige's backstory), and some of the characters can be annoying and sometimes obnoxious.

The afterimage effect for the animation also made it harder to watch (especially scenes where characters or the camera move fast). But the animation/visuals itself isn't the worst and can sometimes be passable, but it's not amazing.

The editing is also all over the place too (for example, a scene will fade out even in the middle of a conversation, and it happens often.)

However there are some positives, the parts that I found the most positive and somewhat funny include the Wizard and Beatboxing Puppy characters.

I don't really think this movie's great, and there are definitely multiple flaws that needs to be fixed with the pacing, characters, animation (the afterimage effect), editing, and story/world-building for it to be good, and it's better to watch something else. I'll give it a 2-3/10 for the effort (and Beatboxing Puppy)

Ratatoing (2007 Video)

Why does this movie even exist, or mockbusters in general?!

[1/10 · 3 April 2022]

Ratatoing, which we all know is obviously some MockBuster to ride off the coattails of a more original and superior movie, which is Disney and Pixar's Ratatouille.

I don't understand the concept of MockBusters, as all it does is make the MockBuster movie be a laughing stock and make the studio close down and be defunct after a few years. As it struck to multiple studios who did stuff like that such as Video Brinquedo, Dingo Pictures, and more.

Plus MockBusters like Ratatoing, they are poorly made pieces of garbage which somehow gets money, probably from those easily tricked or those who find really bad movies amusing.

The animation's quality perishes like cheese, to the point where the mouths of the mice jerk like crazy when they talk, and a cat that runs on twos.

The characters barely have thought processing (or a sense of intelligence).

And the story lags so hard that most scenes drag out for long periods of time even when they aren't supposed to be like that for a movie like this which is apparently less than a whole hour.

I just hope that there would be no more MockBusters being made in the future, as nobody should have to suffer through these non-entity "films" which copy better movies for attention and of course, money.

Groundhog Dave 2 (2020)

Is this even a movie?

[1/10 · 14 October 2021]

Groundhog Dave 2 is not just a abysmal movie, it feels like it doesn't even count as one.

It clearly gives you signs that it isn't going to be any good in the beginning, which the title appears for the movie, and it has a typo in it saying "Grounghog Dave 2".

There is pretty much no effort or care that was put into the movie. The groundhog character looks so dead eyed and ugly to look at.

And the characters pretty much just stand there and monotonously talk for long periods of time with nothing going on, possibly to make it qualified as a feature film.

There is also no action or something to keep someone entertained, even though they probably wouldn't with the long talking and standing.

WOWNow Entertainment really needs to step up and make better movies, as they shouldn't be allowed to make and distribute so many trashy movies that are made in less than a month. So their reputation as a competent movie studio would increase, but I doubt it would happen with their recent movies.

I am only happy that I didn't pay money to see it, but rather watch a smidge of the movie for free on the Peacock streaming service, I didn't feel like watching all of it as most of the movie is mind numbing and dumb.

Ryan's Mystery Playdate (2019–2023)

Just made for money...

[2/10 · 5 June 2020]

The show stars a kid which is part of a massively popular YouTube toy channel named Ryan's Toy Review, and for some reason, the show got aired to Nick Jr. It feels more like a way to give out more money for their family which they are more than rich to even keep all of the cash. Plus most Nick Jr. shows are educational so it doesn't really make sense that this show does not have a sense of teaching or educating. They should give out morals of an episode, or just make it like a real kids show that teaches valuable lessons, then it would be way better.

Fortnite (2017 Video Game)

Confusing to play.

[5/10 · 20 May 2020]

I once played Fortnite back in 2019 just to give it a little try, and I got really confused while playing it. There is no real point to the game, so it gets real boring after playing it for many months, days, and maybe even years. All you're just doing is building, attacking enemies or intruders, and yeah, the content sometimes doesn't really hold up to me, maybe it does to other people, plus it has a digital currency named V-Bucks, and you only get like 1,000 V-Bucks if you spent like 10 dollars. It certainly is not worth it, because you only get like two things. Even the game is a bit overrated. The good part about the game is the visuals, it helps make people recognize of what the game is and what the skins (which are in-game costumes), power-ups, and other things that can stick to the mind when playing it. If the game wasn't overrated and didn't have to be shown or told every time such as in a public school, websites such as YouTube and other platforms, and even in real-life, it can improve and give it less pressure for people to dislike it.

Fuzzy Puppet (I) (2015– )

Fuzzy Puppet is never bad!

[10/10 · 14 May 2020]

The Fuzzy Puppet Show is very nice and cool for families and anyone to watch! It stars an orange fuzzy puppet named Fuz, with his friends, Snowflake, a white, snowy puppet with Frisbee, a blue funny puppet, Gergu, a sneaky purple puppet, and Clucks the Chicken, which isn't like the puppets, but is a friend of Fuz which is a real living animal. And they go on many adventures that are very nice to watch and do not make you bored at all! Until then, I hope the amazing show of Fuzzy Puppet stays being aired!

Nick Studio 10 (2013)

It doesn't look funny or even "important".

[1/10 · 3 May 2020]

I have seen videos about Nick Studio 10, most on YouTube, and the problem about this absurd program is that it occasionally and even suddenly stops the show and displays an "important message" with an unnecessary segment to put with it. It is just a waste of time and it also does not go back to the part of the show you were at that got interrupted. It can even scare a younger kid and some people if they were watching their favorite show and suddenly at a strange time, a weird interruption comes on and shows a silly thing. I'm at least glad the program block is off the air and might never come back

Shaun the Sheep (2007–2020)

Aardman is the leader of stop motion clay animation!

[10/10 · 18 April 2020]

Aardman has made such amazing stop motion shorts and films like "Wallace and Gromit", "Chicken Run", and even "Morph". Shaun the Sheep is also one of the best stop motion shows ever too! It is charming and delighting, and is also memorable too. You will not have any bad experience with the show at any way! There are also some parts of the show where it gets really funny and can give you lots of laughs too, I really hope this show stays on the air! Even with its new Netflix series.

Toy Story 4 (2019)

Animation + Perfecton = PIXAR!

[10/10 · 29 February 2020]

I love how the Pixar movies are so professionally made, the creators of all of these movies really try to pour their care into these great movies! One of the characters that are new to this movie, Forky is a very funny character. I really hope Pixar keeps up the nice work that they try to bring around the world!
