That's all kids want and this movie provides that in spades. Just show them colorful worlds, with characters that are flexible and get into lots of slapstick-y antics. They're obviously not gonna care about the narrative or anything like that. This really is a movie for kids that way. They just throw you to the next scene as quickly as they can. Nothing really ever sticks, because they want you to feel one thing in one scene without really giving it any time to actually sink in. But, because of that pacing, the characters don't really have time to actually develop past the necessary exposition. I will give the movie points for being fast-paced as it doesn't overstay its welcome in the slightest. Not to say there aren't some funny moments, because there are, but there's very little effort put into them. That's what constitutes a joke in this movie. Cats are assholes, dogs are scared of vacuums, shit like that. Because it's not like the movie told a clever joke or anything of the sort, they just used that as a crutch. If I'm honest, at least that aspect of the humor, as in using the things dogs and cats already do to make us laugh, is really lazy. They rely on a lot of the things that make us laugh about dogs or cats instead of actually relying on some well-written jokes. And I put that in quotation marks because it's not like it's truly hilarious or anything of the sort.
As far as comedy is concerned, this might be the 'funniest' film they've ever made. And this movie is absolutely no different. The technical aspects of their films have never been an issue for me, my issues have always been with the actual narrative content of their films, which has always lagged behind the animation. One thing I will never take away from Illumination Entertainment and their team of artists, is that they have some colorful films and, clearly, some very talented animators on their team. If that's not sad to you, at least those of you who've spent more than 10 years watching animated movies, then I don't know what to tell you.
This is really sad when you take into consideration that this, realistically speaking, is an average movie at best. And to illustrate, or ILLUMINATE, that point, I'll tell you right now that this movie was the best one in their filmography. So, yea, Illumination doesn't have the best track record. I can't even include Blue Sky Animation or Sony Animation, as both have several movies in their filmography that I've enjoyed. Yes, their animation is solid and colorful, but their stories are sorely lacking to truly push them to Laika, Pixar or even Dreamworks level. This just popped into my head when I started writing this review, Illumination just isn't very good at what they do. Nor have I seen Sing yet, but I'm willing to give it a shot when it comes out on DVD. I haven't seen Hop and I don't plan on it. This covers Despicable Me 1 and 2, The Lorax, Minions (which I hated) and this one. Perhaps terrible is too strong of a word, but I have not enjoyed any one of their films.
And another thing about Illumination Entertainment, and I only just thought about this right now, but they're a terrible studio. The Illumination Entertainment logo that plays prior to the film has a minion looking at the logo and screaming Illumination in his stupidly annoying minion voice. Oh and another aside, the fucking minions, yes THOSE minions, are also infesting movies that they aren't even meant to be in. With that pointless and unnecessary tangent out of the way, on to this movie.

I suppose I could write this later, but I really don't want to, plus I have to do other stuff. Again, you could say that I don't do that anyway, so this will be just like a regular review. Seriously though, I'm on sort of a high that I don't think I could formulate my thoughts in coherent or interesting fashion. Then again, you could say that none of my reviews are any good to begin with.
