Nimona Movie Description:
A knight is framed for a crime he didn't commit, and the only person who can help him prove his innocence is Nimona, a shape-shifting teen who might also be a monster he's sworn to kill.
Nimona is a 2023 American animated science fantasy film directed by Nick Bruno and Troy Quane from a screenplay by Robert L. Baird and Lloyd Taylor. It is based on the 2015 graphic novel of the same name by ND Stevenson. Set in a science fantasy world influenced by the Middle Ages, the film features the voices of Chloë Grace Moretz as the eponymous shapeshifting character and Riz Ahmed as her boss and former knight Ballister, with Eugene Lee Yang and Frances Conroy voicing supporting roles.
Originally a production of Blue Sky Studios, it was set to be directed by Patrick Osborne, with an initial release date of 2020. Following the Walt Disney Company's acquisition of 21st Century Fox, the parent company of Blue Sky, it was delayed multiple times before being canceled due to Blue Sky's closure in April 2021. However, Annapurna Pictures revived the project the following year, with Bruno and Quane announced as directors, DNEG Animation providing animation, and Netflix acquiring worldwide distribution. Christophe Beck was hired to compose the film's rock-inspired score.
Nimona had its world premiere at the Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 14, 2023, was released in select cinemas on June 23, and made its streaming debut on June 30. The film received critical acclaim and was nominated for Best Animated Feature at the Critics' Choice, Annie Awards and Academy Awards.

Hey mell
Ahh hell yeah. I want some of that
The blood-curdling scream Nimona let’s out as she’s about to run the statue’s sword through her heart shakes me to the core every time. There’s so much pain and sadness behind it
Fun Fact: The credits for the film has an entire section dedicated to everyone that has worked at Blue Sky, complete with Nimona shapeshifting into a squirrel. (Like their mascot, Scrat.) A bittersweet, but great note for the studio to go out on. I'm glad they got the last laugh against Disney.
Damn right 👍 😉
I mean Disney technically got the last laugh since that studio kinda effed them over during the Newt/Rio incident
@@DanGamingFan2406 what incident
@@MatthewLopez-v1y There was a movie being planned by Disney about a newt needing to be paired with a female, as they were both the last of their kind. "Rio"had pretty much the same plot, but with parrots, so Disney ended up dropping out of the argument or lost the case, I think(too lazy to look it up fully).
@@DanGamingFan2406 OH MY I did not know that
"I don't know what's scarier. The fact that everyone in this kingdom wants to run a sword through my heart, or that sometimes I just wanna let 'em." Not gonna lie, that line broke me. I did not expect them to go that deep.
This movie is an absolute masterpiece. I'm so glad Annapurna saved it and gave what was going to be Blue Sky's magnum opus a second chance. Another victory for the And a perfect way to end Pride Month.
That line broke me too
The scene just played when I read this comment OMG! 😭
Nimona is implied to have turned into a Pheonix. Literally allowing her to be reborn after her death.
Ballister's boyfriend is voiced by Eugene from the Try Guys. So proud of how well he did.
fun fact this movie actually got Cancelled & banned for the 2 guys being Gay. & a few other parts of this movie like Disney didn't approve of them putting 12 distinct flags for the LGBT+ pride flags & trans flag where Nimona explains what its like to be a shapeshifter
Wow I didn't expect to see you watching Nimona, I also bawled my eyes out. The movie is very emotional.
Never clicked on a video faster. I was not AT ALL expecting this reaction, but I support it all the way. I've seen more reactions for Nimona than any other movie or show, and that will never cease to be the case.
29:35 Mell just finished Ballister's sentence
for him 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Its cool to see how different people take different looks into why nimona is a monsters. In this case Mell probably have more experience with racism thats why he got to that side.
Most LGBT+ people would go towards the trans/non binary side or at least close to it.
Hearing the line "she doesnt love herself" from mell made me say, its not true at all, its actually the oposite. From an outside perspective from it may seem this way, as for you, you are who you are and been born as, for them its the opposite. She is A SHAPESHIFTER, she is not a girl, nor a boy or anything else, she is all of that and shifting is accepting what she is... Therefore loving herself. ❤
I appreciate this comment. Thank you so much. When I was looking over the edit, I was getting those same themes you spoke of. I wish I would've caught it when I was watching it and spoke on it.
@@HelloMellowXVI No problem at all. I love this movie and your reactions are always super fun. 💙
It's just about a literal monster with the shapeshifting ability not being accepted which makes sense. I did like that they found out she was made out to be a villian and just changed that narritive (but not as deep as people, like Elements and Zootopia is about animals and elements not mixing, makes sense).
I think this is one of the things I love most about this movie. It is literally for everyone who feels this way or sees something of themselves in Nimona.
She. She is a shapeshifter. Nimona always has used she/her pronouns in every iteration and ND Stephenson had exclusively used she/her pronouns to discuss her. Please don't misgender her. Not every nonbinary person uses they/them pronouns.
Blue sky last masterpiece 😭❤️
this is Netflix
Yeah but it was created by blue sky
Netflix finish it cause blue sky was shut down
@@giulleras3974 DNEG Animation Finished the rest of the film up
This movie was such a pleasant suprise. All due credit to the people who finished Blue Sky's work and made sure this movie saw the light of day.
Its a fitting sendoff for the studio
Fun fact:
This movie is based on a webcomic/graphic novel of the same name. They changed quite a lot to fit it into a movie, so a few things don't jell together as well as they should like how the 2nd act lowpoint was a touch forced the way they did it, but generally its just as good if not even an improvement over the original and a great movie all on its own.
0:06 Rukia.❤ The fact that Disney Tried to Kill this movie. Yet for another Studio to bring it back. I love the gay representation in this movie. F the Director. I love Nimona, She’s Me. I love the whole Medieval/ Futuristic Vibe. 1:48🙄 1:33❤ 2:00 Beck Bennett. 20:33 Wow. That’s deep. 20:46 Nimona, poor baby. 21:45 Also The overreaction. I hate how they Treat Nimona. Like This is what happens in this real world, People treat other people like Crap, Just cause of there Sexuality, Race, Ethnicity, religion, Gender, Just cause how they were raised by their parents or Guardians who are probably not very good and Accepting people. And then Projecting it onto their kids. Omg.😞
I first teared up when Gloreth picked the wooden sword and said "Go back to the shadows from whence you came"
Like WHYYY??😭😭 I finally found somewhere I belong to but...whyyy, Gloreth? 😭😭
Please give the Star Trek franchise a chance.
The old or new ones?
@@jaimeantoniolopezsaavedra3377 He don't have to watch everything! Maybe: top ten Classic episodes = Star Trek 1 to 6 = top twenty "The Next Generation" episodes = Star Trek 7 to 10 = the three J.J. Abrams Star Trek movies? ✌️
I can't get through this movie without tearing up at least once, glad to see Mello checking it out, this movie deserves to get more attention
I love that you ended up getting that hoodie after all, and it looks great on you!
I feel like they could make a sequel about what lies beyond the wall, but it would be understandable if they didn’t
Omg I forgot how much I actually enjoyed this movie, love your reaction as always. There’s so much they could do with this universe I could’ve had it bean hour longer just going into the lore
23:59
“because i love you..”
“Sh*t i love my other arm too, but that sh*ts gone”💀
"Because I love you."
"I love my other arm too, but that shit gone!"
You did not give Ambrosius a single break in this movie lmao
Is that Rukiya? Haha .. perfect example equal to Mell when it comes to sad scene. They're both cry rivers
This was kinda like a little personal story of the creator who was going thru a crisis and struggle about finding themselves when transitioning into a transman. As I said in the stream Nimona is not a she or a he, she is JUST Nimona, the many times he kept asking NImona to be just a GIRL Nimona clearly explains that they are simply Nimona. Of course they kept her a female to make it easy for some of us. But if you listen she is clearly talking about being non binary as the creator makes themselves. This movie had different allegories to many people. People are just close minded and dont seem to understand there are different things out there, but its easy to hate something you dont understand.
I love the "and now you're a boy-I am today" bit, it really speaks to me and my friend who's genderfluid😅
Small correction, ND is transmasc not a trans man, he’s still married to Molly, because he’s non-binary and not a man.
You need to watch X-Men 97. The shows so good man
I never expected to see sui cid3 theme in an animated movie
Very deserved the oscar nominarion
was that rukiya at the beginning? you and her are my fav reactors btw
20:25 that is a POWERFUL line!!!!
Netflix released a really fun animated movie called The Sea Beast, I think you'd enjoy it. Would love reactions for X-Men '97 & Blue Eye Samurai
I am so glad you reacted to this movie as I would never have known about it. It is such a shame this movie never seemed to get the recognition it deserves. It should have been released in the Cinema. While some people will mention the controversy of the LGBT Themes, it is a very well written and solid movie. Cannot believe I nearly did not see this. Cetainly one of my top animations, and will rewatch....the only shame is there wont be a sequel any time soom. (if at all).
Another note I want to take
Spoiler
I love the detail when Nimona sacrificed themselves, that they became a Phoenix, and how that works is when a Phoenix dies and turns to ashes, they come back again as their new self.
It's a great added detail which makes me love the film more.
I love that this movie started as a cute couple of comics on Tumblr that did pretty good numbers and got turned into a queer classic. This movie slaps hard and I’m so happy it got made.
She turned into a Phoenix to take the hit. Phoenixes are reborn from their ashes. ;)
MELL. i love this movie so much we’re here for you brother i was absolutely sobbing when i first watched this.
I SCREAMED WHEN I SAW THIS NOTIFICATION OMG
So this film is based off a really great graphic novel by the same name, I highly recommend it.
I like how some of her roars when she turns into her kaiju form sound like her screaming
14:27 "I hear the bell!😂😂😂
3:13 You better be talking about beverages right now.
Right 😂
A MOVIE HASNT BEEN WATCHED UNLESS IT WAS WATCHED BY MELL
This movie needs a sequel
I Agree!!!!😊😊😊😊😊
Yess
You should react to vampire diaries on max
The scene where Nimona pretends to be her “boss” (sorry but I can never remember his name) in the subway had me laughing so hard my throat hurt
HELLL YEEEAAAHH i was so excited to see you were going to react to this movie
Next, can you react umbrella academy
That sponsor ad threw me off! 😂😂😂
Please watch child's play 2 mell please 🙏
Blue Eye Samurai, season 1.
I really like the animation for this movie.
Also Jeepers Creepers 2, i hope is coming soon 🙏+ it's 5 months since you did the 1st. & October approaches lol
I love how wholesome ur channel is 🫂🩷
Can you react to bad boys ride or die
Literally on one of my favorite films
First off EUGENE IS THERE SO IMMEDIATE 100%
It has very good casual queer rep which is GREAT.
Nimona is absolutely lovable.
All characters motivations actually make sense
It can be quirky yes, but it works.
also it's f*cking halarious
I really like both the version of "go back to the shadows from whence you came" from Gloreth and the director, you can really see how a comment coming from fear (and I'd even say concern for Nimona from Gloreth) became pure hatred by the time of the director after years of fear mongering and intolerance, it's really well put
This movie is actually based on a science fantasy graphical novel of the same name created by an American cartoonist ND Stevenson, who's non-binary and has adhd. Creating this story and Nimona's character helped ND to come to terms with his own struggles.
I love how many interpretations people have with Nimona and the message of this film, it just shows we all struggle with our own stuff and seeing things like this can help bringing them to light. You might get a feeling of "Oh, THIS is how it feels" after seeing a character go through something or if you relate to it you can get the "yeah, been there done that" kinda feeling.
Thanks for reacting to this 💝
Yes! Finally!! Thank you so much for watching this!❤ I love this movie, it caught me so off guard how good, funny and emotional it was🥹😭 now it makes me want to read the graphic novel! I love your reaction so much!
This movie went so deep and had me crying more than I thought I would. The music is so good, the animation is very unique but I love it, oh and this is apparently based off a book-i think manga but might be comic book instead.
I LOVE NIMONA! I'm waiting for a sequel. I really hope we get a second one. 😍🔥💕
Brillant movie with so much humor and emotion. Cried so much . I'm so happy you liked it. Fav animated movie of the year even more than Spiderverse 2.😅
I recommend reacting to “Murder Drones” 9.8/10, whenever you’re up for it. 👍🏻👍🏻
This is out of theme for the video, but I give you a suggestion to watch fall.
Its not a horror movie but its thrilling and nerve-wracking.
This movie made me cry as well but I have to admit the part where Nimona lets out That One Scream just makes me laugh the way her head opens up like a big ol flap, it reminds me of my toddler shrieking lmaooo
You known what? I’m glad this movie didn’t release this movie because they do not deserve this masterpiece.
That movie is based on a graphic novel by ND Stevenson and ND Stevenson identifies Transmasculine and Non Binary So Nimona's Shape Shifting ability Functions as an allegory for gender fluidity there are some other themes in the film it represents anyone who has felt discriminated against whether because of their race, economic status lifestyle those who are judged only by what they see on the surface and not by who they really are I enjoy Chloe Grace Moretz acting voice in this movie Also Nimona at the ending a bird Fenix so gorgeous and amazing the kiss scene it was beautiful I cry a lot it's so amazing film
so sorry this has nothing to do w the reaction but can you pls do a reaction to watching Halloweentown? i’d love to see it, all love 💜💙
Riz Ahmed (Ballisters actor) was also in a movie called The Sound of Metal, I highly recommend
This was originally meant to be released on disney a long time ago but they decided not to air it bc it was too gay so Netflix bought it
Hey man my name is Jac Reed and I like your video and, you are a great guy to do these video and. I hope you keep up with them as you can dud.😁👍🏻👏🏻
Without fail this movie gets me crying no matter how many times I've seen it.
I dont believe ive seen anyone else say this, but in the original comic, nimona doesnt come back
So glad I got to watch this movie with you because I have not watched this movie yet
Yo Nimona made me wish I was a shapeshifter. I love the animation in this movie.
You should watch “A walk to remember”
Youd actually like Startrek
Brodie gotta watch instructions not included
Hi can you react to the pixar's elemental pls
I was waiting for him to watch this amazing movie
20:55 This movie is actually a metaphor for being non gender-conforming, and society hating anything that differs from their learned “normal”.
If anyone doesn’t believe me, there is *literally* a trans pride flag in the credits
Edited to add that Ballister’s story is more one of classism.
That and the creator is basically relating the story to his experience of transitioning (pretty sure he transitioned while writing the story or at least shortly after)
OH MY GOD THANK YOU FOR THIS 😭😭😭😭
Mellow : now you gon want that boy to be knight
Nimona : did you see how that little girl looked at me
Mellow : that was boy…..
He learns later on.
can you please watch rush hour
I see this movie and is Ok will me man.
Did you already start watching The Walking Dead?
Last night on stream actually
@@HelloMellowXVI Will you be putting that out on youtube? Im so disappointed that i missed that stream 🥲
I wouldn'tve slept well if this movie ended any other way
❤❤
Good reaction mell
Hey mell
Great movie
first
I understand people not liking a 'monster', but I consider the one who had the queen killed one too. I liked the animation and the energy of Nimona, but the guys relationship was not needed.
so mellow is easily emotional
Gaaaayyeee
Yup I loved it
Watched This Movie For The First Time Earlier This Year During A Road Trip. As You Said, I Didn’t Think The Story Would Take A Turn In A Way That It Did, But It Was Wonderful. 🩶
Thank You For Your Reaction, Mellow! 😊
