User blog:AquaTerra7/Angry Birds - My Review

Hello people of MoivePedia, today, I am going to be reviewing a movie that came out this Friday, which is based on the popular iPhone app, Angry Birds. As you may or may not know, I am a fan of the game itself, but when I found out there was a movie in the making, I got concirned. How are the people behind this, going to stretch the small plot-point of the game, into a 90 minute movie? Anyways, onto the actual review.

The Movie Review

Alright, so there were things that I did like about this movie, and things I didn't like. Now, before we get into the long list of things I didn't like, i'll name the few things I did like. First of all, the animation was great. I was constantly stunned by how real and amazing it looked. This animation was eye-catching and just plain beautiful. Then, all the voice actors/actresses are perfect for their roles. Specifically Jason Sudeikies as Red. His sarcastic and almost sassy attitude, fits the role almost perfectly. Now, onto the things I didn't like. First of all, the story was a mess to me. I honestly don't know what it is specifically about the story I don't like, but I know for one thing, the story is predictible as hell. I can see the "twists" and "plot-turns" coming from a mile away. Another thing that is a mess, is the humor, and the direction the movie is going for. Throughout the movie, I was wondering if some of this humor was really sutible for young children. First, a character will crack out a fart joke, and then here comes lines like "Pluck my life". There are also a lot of uncomfortable moments of adult humor all throughout the movie, which is not cleverly hidden, they just through an adult joke at your face. This flaw makes the movie a really awkward experience.

Overall

Overall, I cant blame this movie for being "bad", I mean, I wasn't expecting much from a movie based on a mobile app. There were a few things I liked, and some of the jokes weren't terrible, and actually got a laugh out of me. It won't  be a complete waste, because it is somewhat fun to go on this journey along with the characters. I have to say the funnest scene, had to be a scene twere, the birds used their slingshot to slingshot themselves, and try to destroy the pigs to get their eggs back. That scene really reminded me of the game, and fit well.
