Lame 😒

 


Pretty much NOBODY had hope for this movie, let alone asked for another Smurfs movie. And to be completely honest, Rihanna voicing Smurfette made me take it even less seriously than I already did. Our titular characters have to stop Gargamel's brother from sucking all the "good" from the universe while James Cordon's character with no name is having issues finding his "thing".

The film wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was lame. The overall themes of this movie are super generic and it barely does anything with it. The live-action sequences had no reason to be there. If an animated movie is going to have live-action in it, they should at least do something with the live-action setting instead of just simply using it as a background, which is exactly what this movie did. If that was gonna be the case, then why didn't simply make the regular world animated? There was literally no reason for the live-action sequences. Not that I had a huge issue with this, but why did the writers feel the need to give Gargamel a brother? It really wasn't necessary. The dialogue was also quite cheesy.

This movie is also a musical, which is a HUGE indication that this film was overly reliant on Rihanna's star power. Pretty much all of the songs were pop songs, and kind of annoying. The songs of this film were just sad attempts to connect with a younger audience. Unlike Kpop Demon Hunters who's appeal through pop music is natural, this movie just tries too hard.

The best thing about the movie was the animation, it was actually pretty good. I just wish it wasn't wasted on such a lackluster movie. Thanks For Reading.

Introduction

Bio My name is Naomi Marie Elidios Chadwick. I was born in San Diego, California, but I currently live in Las Vegas, Nevada. I pretty much have a traditional family, which involves happily married parents, 1 younger sister, and an older brother. I was raised Christian, and I continue to practice Christianity to this day. This is not a spiritual blog but some of the content that I post is influenced by my faith. Every now and then I will post Christian content as well, just not always (except with Billboard ). The picture you see up above is me at the airport with my father after I graduated from AmeriCorps NCCC after 10 months of community service. In response I received a congressional award for community service. I've always been really proud of that. I was diagnosed with Asperger's (a form of Autism) around the age of 6, but I was not informed of my diagnosis until I was 12. I'm very into movies and television (animation especially), and pop culture as a whole, and I...

My Top 10 Best Movies Of 2024 (Part 2)

  So, now it’s time for the best list. This is obviously a list of what is in my opinion, the best movies of 2024. Before anything else, just a quick reminder that I have chosen not to review or rank the films  Mary  &  Dune: Part Two   due to my conflicting feelings on them. So you won’t see either of those 2 on this list. If you would like an explanation for 1 or both movies, there are 2 links down below. If there’s an acclaimed movie you were expecting to see on this list that you didn’t see, check out my “Movies You Won’t See” post through the link down below.  #10:  The Bikeriders God-honest truth, the main reason I saw this movie is because of my soft spot for Austin Butler. Though definitely not the strongest movie, this was really good. Its strong points were the performances and the twists. While Austin wasn’t THE standout, he did do a really good job and truly embraced his inner James Dean. The standout however was indeed Tom Ha...
