I have to be fair to illumination here though... Most of their movies are original. Despicable me IS an original concept. Then we have "Sing." "Secret world of Pets." "Hop." For all of illuminations faults and there are many... over half their movies are original concept and stories so I can't fault them for that at all.
@@MoonPhantomok, I should’ve been more specific, what I actually meant was Illumination doing something original for once that isn’t a sequel or adaptation. Because after 2016, they stopped making original stories and either did sequels (for despicable me, Secret life of pets, sing, and minions) or adaptations (for the Grinch and Super Mario Bros), which isn’t bad, obviously. But something new is nice every once in a while. I apologize for the confusion.
@v2007sentertainmentinc. you should totally watch Migration it's amazing 10 / 10 for me even 100 / 10 xd you should totally watch it . Truly illumination's best movie so far easily .
I also liked how in this movie humans don't actually talk. They grunt as if they're saying something, but nothing is actually said. I just thought that was cool since this movie is in the perspective of birds who wouldn't understand non-bird animals.
It's New York City baby! We have ninjas turtles, pizza rats, gangsters seagulls shoplifting - a duck walking through a dance floor is just another Tuesday 😂
Migration is actually a really good film, and feels different to what Illumination have done prior. Props to Benjamin Renner for instilling a unique identity into an animated film.
This is a perfect example of a simple and generic film being good. You don’t need constant originality and complex writing to make an enjoyable movie, and since that’s one of the most important things for movies to achieve, it shows that this is a good movie. Gorgeous visuals, fun characters and a genuinely charming sense of humor, it’s a great movie to just sit back and have a good time in the movie theatre. Hope we see more films like this in the future, to help balance out with the golden masterpieces like the spiderverse franchise and the recent puss in boots the last wish.
Well actually, it arguably should’ve done better because Christmas Day is when Jewish people hit the movies to bide their time in the day since they don’t celebrate Christmas. At least that’s what I hear.
why was it paintful ? like it was barely advertised ? agreed unlike their other movies Migration was a bit less marketed than it should've been , but hey i guess they were saving up for despicable me 4 and going all out on that rather than this movie , because original idea maybe is breath of fresh air always , but a risk also . And i mean it was advertised , but not enough in my opinion , but the advertisements were funny and i liked most of them .
the thing with mack checking the cellar out makes actually sense when you think about his character as a whole. He started off as someone who refused change and slowly starts to build this sense for adventure, especially building up his courage at the chef's place. He clearly felt good with everyone thanking him and thinking him as a hero. So ig with a inflated ego and a new found sense of bravery he went in. It's a cool character arc and quite obvious if I can say so myself... And macks whole character arc ends with him reminding erm... I forgor her name, but his wife that whatever is happening there is still light at the end of the tunnel. It's quite cheesy, yes, but it's enough for a good family movie and the topic of migration is not gate kept by only ducks and thus many humans can also relate.
Me & friend went to see this film because Godzilla Minus One was out of our local theaters, & for what it is it's actually quite good. I think animated films like Spiderverse & Puss in Boots really spoiled us making us forget not every film has to be a grand epic full of deep & emotionally torn characters. It's okay just to be a simple fun family movie.
Oh my god I like this kind of upload time no more waiting 2 months or 1 months for a single video now we can wait 1 week or 2 week for a video haha this is fantastic
@@SandsUnderthetable I watched in theaters because I wanted to see Godzilla Minus One, but my theater didn't have it, so I went with that instead. My brother and sister warned me that the movie was bad, but I figured it would at least have some stuff. They were right. The characters are cliche, like as soon as you see the father you know what character arc he's gonna go through, and it's done very predictably. The kids are just window dressing to look cute. The uncle is unfunny. The side characters were fine I guess, but nothing noteworthy, the climax is lame, and there is no consistent narrative, it's just scenes being stitched together haphazardly. It's a boring experience, and I would not recommend it. 4/10.

I KNOW. I JUST WATCHED THE MOVIE YESTERDAY. And for that reason, this obviously combines the two elements from the Rio series and that are what subjectively makes this rather... similar in a way.
One of the reasons why the movie is better that the rest of Illumination's package is definetly thanks to Benjamin Renner's influence as a director. He also made Ernest and Celestine and Big Bad Fox and Other Tales. (My Review ) With that said I couldn't help but to compare some scenes to Rio with how similiar they were like the escape from the plane at the climax and the dance sequence. I would not be suprised if they "inspired" by it. Sometimes it was a bit repetitive with how the main characters met other ones while having wacky hijinxs with together and I do kinda wish we could get little bit of explanation as to why Mac was so worried to leave the pod. There was deleted scene where Mac as a duckling left his family and flew beyond the pod only for him to get attacked by predators. If I would give positives its that the animation is beautiful while staying true to Renner's artstyle. The soundtrack by John Powell is great and the characters are very charming and fun. I especially enjoyed the dynamic between Mac and Pam and how much of a sweet couple they were. It was a complete 180 compared to Super Mario Bros in many details. While I don't find the movie to be as good as everyone else I had a fun time watching it and I would recomend it if want something simple yet charming.
I watched this movie in theaters, I had zero expectations yet it was INCREDIBLE. I highly recommend you watch this movie, it genuinely feels like a family movie (like jokes for all ages) rather than (just) brain rot for iPad addicted toddlers.
People complain about chris pratt taking too many roles in kid movies (even though he only had three emmet, Garfield and mario), awkwafina is in every kid movie (little mermaid, raya, migration, bad guys, angry birds, kung fu freakin panda. Some dont even fit, raya, the bird from little mermaid. Im just saying
Because he was awful in Everyone one of it as for Awkwafina people just hate her because she's in huge movie sequels She's an awesome voice actress, it's just that she always gets big movie sequel or new experiment movies and People and die hard fans are gonna judge die hard and if they didn't liked it or hated it then for nostalgia they won't blame the old actors but will always pick on new ones and voice actors specially actress like her who are very new and has no major role for them personally, like chris patt is in thier most beloved movies or shows from childhood and all even if he does bad oncr or twice noone would complain about him about the failure but Since noone even want to know why Awkwafina's achievements in roles and just blame her if they didn't liked the movie since they don't know her I thought this movie was mid so I hated Everyone and then I let someone let watch King h fu panda 4 for the ones who haven't watched first 3 movies and they absolutely loved the fourth and Awkwafina's The Fox Character is thier most favourite one same with Ray and the last dragon I didn't told them the dragon's voice actress and they absolutely found her funny till I revealed who voices it and they hated King h fu panda 4 so they said one second thought it's not as good now the same with bad guys noone mind her voice till compared it to a mimic funny noisy Voice of screaming and purposely they thought it as a same, so in short so literally Everyone is hating in her is because of just because, and because she is in huge movie modern sequels that they don't like but don't wanna blame on old actors so they pick on her instead!
watched this with my family after not going to the movies for a while. we chose migration and honestly it was a pretty cute movie! i came out liking it more than i thought i would!!
i just want to let you know that i really do love your videos!❤️ i remember finding you and binging EVERY SINGLE VIDEO you have, and even then it wasnt enough😂 when im bored or need to watch something when im studying, rewatch my favorites, so thank you for your dedication to these videos (:
I was and still am very surprised by Migration. This is probably the least Illumination feeling movie out of all their movies. Also as you mentioned it has great animation and cinematography which feels weird because I can’t really remember a time when Illumination would attempt this. I feel one of the best things you didn’t point out about this movie is the score. Holy moly this score is fantastic. John Powell has to be one of my favorite composers and like always he definitely brought his A game. To me this is now my favorite Illumination movie. This manages to take all the fun of Mario with some of the heart like Despicable Me and it just ended up being a blast to watch. It is surprising that of all the studios that released more than one movie Illumination was the studio to be the most consistent. Yeah they most likely will still make a bunch of sequels but with this feeling like Illumination is stepping up their quality I might be giving them more hope than usual. Migration for me is an 8/10.
I think there’s further potential to expand upon it, as it did eventually become successful at the box office. For me, Sing 2 is my personal favorite Illumination film. Far superior to the first (it’s alright for what it is) and had an amazing soundtrack and felt more mature at times.
Seeing you rank the duck movie itself truly made my day and honestly I have to agree with you Migration is just simply a fun movie to watch and it made my 5 year old bird lover me explode with joy when I first the news about that movie because back when I was just a child I used to absolutely *FUCKING LOVE BIRDS!!!* I used to adore them back then because they were just cool creatures and I used to be invested on almost every single species of them and when I saw this movie with my mom it made me a bit nostalgic for a moment because not only because it kinda reminded me of Rio a little and it’s also a movie I absolutely adored too but also because it reminded me of simpler times on back when life used to be so much simpler and that is something I really need for a long time and yes this movie along with the Mario movie and The Spider Verse movie are probably the 3 most anticipated movies I wanted to see this year and they’re all amazing so yeah Migration a good and fun movie for me and that’s ironic for someone where’s the channel OC is a literal duck saying this but yeah great movie highly check it out if you want something to make your day😊
My girls wanted to see this in theaters so bad and I agreed to just have some fun with them. I wasn’t expecting much from it, just thought it was going to be a silly kids movie. But I surprisingly enjoyed it more than I thought I would lol
This movie surprised me by being like a 2007 Alpha and Omega/Open Season type movie yet in 2023. I just remember the weird Shark Tank promo feeling so awkward and forced.
I watched this film on the plane, and my thoughts on it are... that it's really safe and a bit generic, but it's legitimately heartwarming, fun, and enjoyable. It's basically a fun, simple romp that reminds me of animated movies of the 2000s, and kinda nice when you want a break from Disney and Minions. Legitimately would watch it again.
the & animations & camera work & visuals & pacing are absolutely perfectly executed, even tho theres loads of scenes are illogical, it was ok because they made it fun, being creative is more fun then being realistic ❤
The thing why I love watching your every video - the conversations of the film industries. Anyway the movie was good. It was surely a film for families and kids mostly, but it wasn't a bad animated movie. Also the animation was really pretty and I liked its characters. It wasn't a pixar movie or studio ghibli movie suuree, but it was nice for Illumination.
Migration might be the best illumination movie, simply because the story wasn’t rushed, the movie was funny, and the funny was visually amazing. All other illumination movies only accomplish 2/3, for me, this one accomplished 3/3 requirements 😳✨✨💅
Let this sink for a second. Illumination, the studio behind The Minions, can make a fantastic family movie, out of the blue. The most absolute random shit from Illumination is unironically one of the studio's best movies. Who would've thunk?!
I liked this movie. The plot was simple but well executed. It was fun, heartwarming and exciting the animation was absolutely stunning too. My favourite scene was the mallards flying in the clouds 🩷. Good job Illumination, i hope you can keep it up.
My dad is the human equivalent of Hugh Neutron (nuts about ducks), so I'm thinking this is something we'll end up enjoying someday. Good to know it has the beaniie stamp of approval!
This was a good movie. It’s not the best as I can see its faults but seeing it is an original concept, something that isn’t done as much and it to me, is funny, it was good.
I saw this trailer at the theatre and I SWEAR I've seen this movie before, like this movie already existed from another studio with a bunch of the same jokes as the trailer... but like when I was younger. Like it's gotta be 10 years old AT LEAST but I haven't seen anyone else talking about it but I remember this movie already existing so clearly UPDATE: WATCH THE TRAILER TO YELLOWBIRD AND THEN RE-WATCH THE TRAILER TO MIGRATION
I just assumed Ducks need some sort of "running start" in order to fly, or go in any diagonal motion, like they can't fly up and down easily. But how would I know.
I’m glad this movie managed to find its footing after a while. It was very nice to see Illumination do something original for once. Really good movie!
I have to be fair to illumination here though... Most of their movies are original. Despicable me IS an original concept.
Then we have "Sing." "Secret world of Pets." "Hop."

@@MoonPhantom Yes... but sequels are not originals.
A lot of this movie can be compared to the movies Rio and Rio 2 (with the blue birds) some of the diaglogue was even the exact same
Illumination finally making movies other than the Minions is a breath of fresh air.
It feels like illumination has shifted in recent years, even Minions The Rise of Gru which was minions felt different

I like ducks, I like animation, I like this movie. This was a win in my book, and I hope they don't give up on original stories like this.
I think what made it bad was that it was released on Christmas weekend, when everyone was with their families
Well actually, it arguably should’ve done better because Christmas Day is when Jewish people hit the movies to bide their time in the day since they don’t celebrate Christmas. At least that’s what I hear.
Yeah, pretty much every movie released around Christmas does bad at first and then ends up improving later

i was expecting the selling point to universal in the opening skit to be "we can get awkwafina in it"
she duo on my lingo
Crazy? I was crazy once. They locked me in a room, a rubber room. A rubber room with rats. The rats made me crazy.
My girls wanted to see this in theaters so bad and I agreed to just have some fun with them. I wasn’t expecting much from it, just thought it was going to be a silly kids movie. But I surprisingly enjoyed it more than I thought I would lol
This movie surprised me by being like a 2007 Alpha and Omega/Open Season type movie yet in 2023. I just remember the weird Shark Tank promo feeling so awkward and forced.
Bro at the part where you introduced the chef I got a cooking game ad😭
12:35 - So...Pretty much every Awkwafina role.
I watched this film on the plane, and my thoughts on it are... that it's really safe and a bit generic, but it's legitimately heartwarming, fun, and enjoyable.
It's basically a fun, simple romp that reminds me of animated movies of the 2000s, and kinda nice when you want a break from Disney and Minions. Legitimately would watch it again.
I haven’t seen this movie, but have heard of it, might check it out at some point.
My mom really wants to see the movie but she doesn't want to drive too far and all the theaters are miles away from our house.
Migration pulled an Elemental for Illumination!
That's what happens when you make a good movie
the & animations & camera work & visuals & pacing are absolutely perfectly executed, even tho theres loads of scenes are illogical, it was ok because they made it fun, being creative is more fun then being realistic ❤
The thing why I love watching your every video - the conversations of the film industries.
Anyway the movie was good. It was surely a film for families and kids mostly, but it wasn't a bad animated movie. Also the animation was really pretty and I liked its characters.
It wasn't a pixar movie or studio ghibli movie suuree, but it was nice for Illumination.
I saw the title of the video and immediately imagined vsauce talking
I watched this movie while high and it was a fucking experience
I thought beaniie was gone. I adore his intro for every movie he reviews.
This movie kinda reminds me of “Leafie, A Hen Into The Wild.”
they were able to animate the flying so well because 60% of illumination staff are actually ducks
Okay, get this mf to 100k, it's been too long ✊
This is just a theory (a film theory), but I don’t think there was enough room for the ducks to take off in the dance scene
Awkwafina is now a character in the Beanie Brian cinematic universe
squarespace has got this man into having a consistent upload schedule, i'm clicking that link 😂
Imagine if Beanie made a rundown on Trolls Band Together and starts to compare this to Disney's Wish since both movies are released on the same month?
Migration might be the best illumination movie, simply because the story wasn’t rushed, the movie was funny, and the funny was visually amazing. All other illumination movies only accomplish 2/3, for me, this one accomplished 3/3 requirements 😳✨✨💅
This movie make me love ducks tba based on the stuff ducks do in irl
Am I crazy or is this just the plot of Rio 2?
Rio + Rio 2 + Ratatouille
Yes
Rio 2 had like 5 plots
Seriously the fkin minions are my damn trigger word
I really loved migration :)
They got John Powell, from How To Train Your Dragon and Kung Fu Panda, in this movie to compose the score 😮
I love the humor in this review.
We are the beans and we will rule all nothing can stop our ever growing might.
turn this into a copy pasta
It Made My Day Even better
In defense of the mallards not flying out on the dance floor....it's extremely crowded and flying out could cause a mess and give away their location.
I thought it was interesting how in this film like Nemo they didn’t make the humans talk
Let this sink for a second. Illumination, the studio behind The Minions, can make a fantastic family movie, out of the blue. The most absolute random shit from Illumination is unironically one of the studio's best movies. Who would've thunk?!
why do ppl hate on illumination? i really like them, especially this movie
I think migration is the top five illumination movies but it ain’t saying much but it’s a great family movie 6/1
I liked this movie. The plot was simple but well executed. It was fun, heartwarming and exciting the animation was absolutely stunning too. My favourite scene was the mallards flying in the clouds 🩷. Good job Illumination, i hope you can keep it up.
16:22 in his defence I would probably do the same
I went to see this movie with friend and end up enjoying it.
14:40 don't think that's how duck flying works
FINALLY SOMEONE ELSE THINKS LIKE I DO😂😂😂😂
My dad is the human equivalent of Hugh Neutron (nuts about ducks), so I'm thinking this is something we'll end up enjoying someday. Good to know it has the beaniie stamp of approval!
I genuinely enjoyed this movie
I’m confused how Dax I think that’s his name but he just attached feathers to his wings like how they don’t have hands
When the bell ring but yo dingaling lowkey hard
Dax is a god sent. He so damn relatable
Finally a good original movie
This was a good movie. It’s not the best as I can see its faults but seeing it is an original concept, something that isn’t done as much and it to me, is funny, it was good.
What's the song that plays at 19:03?
"Migration end titles" by John Powell
*MAJOR* Rio vibes
tbis was a good family movie
I saw this trailer at the theatre and I SWEAR I've seen this movie before, like this movie already existed from another studio with a bunch of the same jokes as the trailer... but like when I was younger. Like it's gotta be 10 years old AT LEAST but I haven't seen anyone else talking about it but I remember this movie already existing so clearly
UPDATE: WATCH THE TRAILER TO YELLOWBIRD AND THEN RE-WATCH THE TRAILER TO MIGRATION
Rio?
@@vadimbanner2024 no I figured it out it's called Yellowbird
mother gothel is not over protective and she's not a parent.
I just assumed Ducks need some sort of "running start" in order to fly, or go in any diagonal motion, like they can't fly up and down easily. But how would I know.
Surprised you didn't mention who directed it. The same guy who did Ernest and Celestine worked on this visual gem.
There was another talking duck movie from years ago everyone ignored and forgot about THAT FLOPPED years ago
We don’t even have wild macaws here in Jamaica 💀💀💀
