6What people say
baffled at how many people hate this movie on here. it has some duds, absolutely. but leave it to george miller to make a kids movie this weird and big and gross and spiritual. i mean there is BARELY a plot but i couldn’t care less as a kid and i couldn’t care less now, this thing is too bizarre to fail most of the time. the crane crashing into the ocean moment is just a striking and weirdly ominous detail, even if it’s undeniably goofy. again, some dumb choices here and there but like, i’ll take that any day over something boring. the animation looks dated in spots but honestly, there’s a handful of breathtaking shots in here that remind you this is definitely the same guy that did fury road. i guess i keep thinking about how dumb and cringey this would be under a different director. instead it’s just going for it and making the penguins horny, naming the mom Norma Jean, ending it with a live-action montage of men in suits yelling, having robin williams voice two penguins because fuck it. i think it’s about religion
I hate this movie's guts
