This isnt Kim Possible this is Kim Potentially.
Underrated comment 😭😭😭
MY CHEST 😭😭💀💀💀💀💀💀
😂😂😂
The scream I scrumt 🤣🤣🤣
Kim possible is an animated masterwork in the Disney Animation canon. There will never be a show like this again.
I think one of the problems of this movie was that it was somehow more cartoony than the actual cartoon 💀
And not even in a good way
Is it not supposed to to be
Disney Channel was afraid that Kim would be considered a “Mary Sue” by today’s standards, they practically kneecapped her and sucked all the personality, energy and charm that made Kim so likable in the first place.
ReZero character she was not
She wasn’t a Mary Sue (I’m using the Trekkie’s Tale interpretation of the term), Kim had human flaws you’d expect of a teenager, like personal insecurities especially around attractive guys, imperfect conflict resolution abilities and sometimes putting her foot in it. It’s examples of this that use Ron as a foil, someone who lacks the doubts Kim has and excels in areas she stumbles in.
@@jbcatz5also she would overcommit to things and she was a perfectionist
It's Kim Pressive just how Kim Pudent this movie is to its source material. With how Kim Portant the Kim Pact of the original cartoon was to Disney Channel, you would think this movie would leave a better Kim Pression on its audience. Honestly, it's not that hard to Kim Agine how a Kim Possible movie could go about Kim Itating the original spirit of the show. It's Kim Conceivable!
Alright that was honestly impressive
@@hikeilokei you could even say it’s Kim Pressive
oh this was Kim Peccable
im ron stoppable
Kim Maculate wordplay
I really wish that she was still a cheerleader in this version because her being able to do all those acrobatics and stuff would have made so much sense, and they couldve showed just how much of a sport cheer is! kim possible was actually some of the reason i joined cheer, it made me so sad.
Honestly yeah. Even Athena joining the cheer team would’ve been a better display of her flexibility and acrobatics
Just fyi, the movie that beat out Kim Possible for being the worst performing (Under Wraps) was a remake of one of the very first Disney channel original movies that came out in 1997, so... I sense a trend.
I was actually aware of that lol. But like I said, only time for one migraine today…
The OG Under Wraps isn't even available on Disney+ anymore 😢
@@mattneffWait, WHAT?!?!?! I never cared for the original 'Under Wraps' duology, but dang. For some of the fans, the film's SHOULD be on Disney+ in the U.S.
@@COSun25good thing that SURFSHARKVPN IS HERE HAHA HA HAHA! idk anymore man I feel bad making fun of sponsorships because they are a youtuber's living, but at the same time it's hard not to make a little fun of sponsors.
@@COSun25it was only one lol
Kim Possible (2019) is like a wasp: It never should’ve existed.
yep
I appreciate the real lack of a punchline here. Gotta love a good anti-joke
@@hikeilokei Thanks for the compliment my man! You’re legit one of my favorite TH-camrs. Will you do the other 2 High School Musical movies just like you did with Descendants and Z-O-M-B-I-E-S?
Wasps are important ticks should never exist
Does anyone else find the timeline of the movie weird? Like in the show Kim was in high school and in the movie she’s just starting. This would be fine and we could say that the movie takes place before the show but that doesn’t make sense because it’s implied to be after the show.
I think that Disney just had an idea for a spy movie where the spy is in high school but then they realized they had Kim possible and could tie it in with that
Why couldn't Disney do a film series finale for 'K.C. Undercover' instead?
Oh like a reverse snow day (was supposed to be a pete and pete movie, but then nickelodeon decided to just make it their ownd thing), makes sense
It's even weirder because it would have to be during the start in order for Kim and Ron to still be just friends
Also kim wasn't doing missions when she started highschool. She got her first mission after cheerleader try outs
why kims flipping was useful and important in the show was SHE WAS A CHEERLEADER, it was a huge part of her character and her cheerleading helped with her spy work. them getting rid of that and replacing it with soccer makes no sense there is no reason for her to be flipping as much as she did.
The fact that you're a full time student and have such an well maintained channel is INSANE to me. You're a fucking super hero! Kei-possible! (Sorry for that one)
Well it’s not too hard since I don’t have a job outside of this! But it’s still work. Though I love what I do so it’s not too bad of course :)
Also, can we talk about the disrespect of giving Athena Kim's last crime fighting outfit?
If this film takes place before the main animated series, Athena will be truly forgotten over time.
@@COSun25its a different universe
Did they reuse the room from decendants to make this?? The evil lair is the EXACT same shape and floor plan as the villain parent's house living room they all hang out in.
Which room? The living room in Kim's house or her bedroom?
@COSun25 no, I mean the first shot of the evil lair
The problem is that Kim was portrayed as underachieving loser when her tagline is literally "I Can Do Anything" which is what made the character cool to being with
*Puts on Pretentious Screenwriter Glasses* Here's how I would've written the movie.
First, have it be about Kim and Ron's kids. Keep the kid actors the same, but bring back Kim and Ron's OG voice actors to play the parents.
Make the story about Kim Jr. trying to live up to her mother's legacy while also trying to be her own person. OG Kim could be constantly micromanaging her kid's solo missions, constantly comparing to her own missions. This can create interesting family conflict, while also act as a meta commentary for people's expectations of the reboot.
Then introduce Athena as someone who seems like OG Kim in every way. Athena could get close to the family, forming a bond with OG Kim and making her daughter jealous.
As the film progresses, OG Kim can realize she's been blinded by her own nostalgia and is holding her daughter to unrealistic standards. She and Kim Jr. could team up to take down Athena, who Draken and Shego created to be the "perfect flawless version of Kim Possible", which they realize ultimately doesn't exist.
The film ends with the Possible Family resolving their differences. OG Kim gives daughter her blessing to do her own thing, while Kim Jr. agrees to carry her mother's name with pride.
Omg that’s so perfect. Someone’s need so to write this into a fanfic
Boooring. I would like for the film to be about students being trained within an academy, run by Kim Possible herself, of agents to protect the world. The whole 'let's do spinoff of the kids of lead characters from the original series' has been done tooooooo much over the last few decades.
Toxic nostalgia needs to be addressed more in media and this is a good idea surrounding that.
@@COSun25 there’s a Sharkboy and Lava Girl to We Will Be Heroes reference here. But let’s not get into that movie
Wait, but I if I remember correctly, the villains stopped being, well villains. The only exception is monkey fist as well as that monkey from the little sister episode.
I actually liked them bringing in Patton to briefly play Dementor, since he voiced him in the original cartoon.
I wish that he actually looked like Dementor from the animated series. I know, I know. Most actors don't want to go all of the way when it comes to coloring their skin. The costume doesn't even look like what I remember from him in the animated series.
Let's just forget that this movie ever existed and watch A Sitch in Time and So the Drama!
I don’t like how this movie tried to portray Kim as a piece of shit.
Fr💀
She was a bit like that in the final season.
Some things should stay animated imo
True, but Disney will never learn. It already makes money from the live-action films based on the Walt Disney Animation Studios classics. Disney decided to go beyond that and go for the Disney Channel animated shows that can be turned into live-action for success.
The only thing I remember about this live action remake was the stupid controversy of live action Kim not looking "sexy" like her animated counterpart. You can tell this controversy was from horny adults who didn't have a problem with sexualizing a 15 year old cartoon character.
The exact thing that happened with Ellie in TLOU.
@@hikeilokeiWait Ellie too ?
Does anyone else remember that one Kim Possible episode when they
Made fun of the idea of a live-action remake?
Yeah I think the episode was called “And the Naked Mole Rate will be CGI”. I really enjoyed that episode
Kim possible warned us
why would they switch from cheerleading to soccer then force in acrobatics in weird spots. Huge down grade as part of he character was being into traditionally feminine and teen girl interests while being a bad ass. Changing it to soccer is just kinda lame
“Always naked, but never afraid” is a golden quote😂
It’s crazy how fast you went from 1k subscribers to over 50k and being sponsored
Ah, yes, how do you make Kim Possible more progressive and inclusive? By adding henchWOmen and making the lead female a petty spoiled brat.
finally, the female lead can punch faceless goolrs!
So are we gonna talk about the twist villain thing being a direct ripoff of Kim Possible: So the Drama? The original character was even also a synthodrone made by Dr. Drakken…
I think they were trying to do a modern replica of Kim Possible: So the Drama but since they wanted to make Kim younger they decided to do a friend instead of a love interest
absolutely bizarre they didn’t let Kim be a cheerleader? like? she’s still flipping around when doing soccer, so why not keep the joke that she good at her whacky spy flips b/c of cheerleading??
congratulations on being the only youtuber whose ads i never ever skip through
Haha I’m glad! If I’m gonna do an ad, it’s better for me, the sponsor, and the viewers if it’s fun to watch! Surfshark was so nice to work with cause they gave me a LOT of freedom in hire to approach the segment!
Wait, Kim couldn’t even be a cheerleader in this movie?
Kim possible is responsible for several lesbians (well, technically shego is) so this movie is a hate crime
Knowing the age difference between Kim and Shego, I know folks still ship 'em, but ehhhh...
Wade hacking Athena by re-routing the blockchain is all the proof I need to assume the Possibles re-engineered Athena into a Crypto-bot after she was destroyed.
Me and my friends were 10 when this movie came out and I think it’s safe to say that *none* of us had saw an episode of Kim Possible and the most we had heard about it was from the theme song on tiktok. I don’t know who this movie was made for, the kids who were still watching Disney channel were too young to either experience or even know what this was and the kids that weren’t were no longer kids and could’ve even had families of their own.
I bet that the film was made to get new fans to check out the animated series.
I was like, 7 when the original show aired and this movie just screamed *"NOSTALGIA! REMEMBER KIM?!"*
Wait, was Kims brothers in this movie? They’re the robotic geniuses.
Yes. But they appear once at the 9 minute mark in the background. And at the beginning for the third act… also in the background. They don’t have dialogue either
What makes this potentially worse is that the writers were allegedly the same ones for the show
What?! 😮
@@LouisaRubyDDD Just looked it up and both Bob Schooly and Mark McCorkle had a hand in this along with Josh Cagan.
@@xavierjohnson2321 Ugh disappointing.
Yeah, I wasn’t a fan of this either. And one of the things I hated about it was that they had Sean Giambrone do a new version of “The Naked Mole Rap”. The story of how Ron got Rufus in the movie was totally different than how it happened in the show.
In the show, Ron got Rufus at Smarty Mart because it was the only kind of pet he could have since his dad was allergic to fur. In the movie, Ron found Rufus in a cage at a research lab that he and Kim were infiltrating in.
And what’s even more weird is that the movie had actual involvement from the original creators of Kim Possible and yet, it was still terrible!
This is quite literally just the actual Kim Possible movie (So the Drama) but Eric (the love interest turned twist villain in the og movie) is Athena. Eric even turns out to also be a cyborg/sandbag looking thing but it actually isn’t out of left field. Also the inferiority complex goes to Ron in that movie because Eric and Kim are spending time together and getting chummy and he doesn’t like that.
Also So the Drama is actually a fun and good movie!!!!! Imo
They didn't get Patrick Warburton to play Mr Barkin? That's strike 1000 for this movie
I personally didnt hate the live action take, it just wasnt the same lol. To be honest the highlight was Rufus still being a bit dosgusting but also still as adorable and smart as in the show. Not to mention they retconned Rufus' origins to make sense as to why hes such a smart little thing so that will always be a plus to me.
Why didn't you ever tell us you liked movies before? 😢
all jokes aside, your content never misses. Big congrats on the sponsorship. and thanks for always working so hard, love your review style!
They basically tried to remake So the Drama, but made it the beginning of her high school years, instead of the end of her high school years. Also turned the robot boyfriend into a girl. Problem was that I watched that movie for the drama, the drama in this movie wanted to make me unalive myself.
Congratulations on the sponsorship 🎉
Thank you!!
Completely off topic, but I love your style in each video! The earring game is off the charts, they look incredible!
Also you're a college student and upload such amazing quality videos semi=often??? WHAT??? Thank you for your service in reviewing bad movies/franchises.
Why do they keep doing this? Take a beloved show and reboot it into something cheap and awful? Sure they're trying to appeal to the younger generation but I honestly see nothing wrong with just showing them the original series! I can think of several shows that came before my time and I don't need a remake in order to be invested in it.
Same! Amen to that! :)
Unless they can somehow find a way to make the remake good, but, if not, amen to that! :)
I wish they used some of the main cast in a different, completely original project and story for the channel, because they were decent in this movie and I can see them appealing to a kid audience in a different story setting. But disney had to go with the reuse old IP for nostalgia points while also trying to grab a new audience route...again.
Damn can’t believe they replaced Shego with The Avengers (2012) popular character Loki and his famous funny blue glowing cube
The best Kim Possible 2019 gave us, at least to me, is Wade's actor ending up as Gus from The Owl House.
Wait, really?
@@DrawciaGleam02 Yep, really.
This movie is basically the SO the Drama movie but incredibly worse. Draken's whole evil scheme was the exact same as in the movie along with the twist villain.
Honestly when this movie came out I was confused as to who it was for. The show had been off the air for years and it wasn't like Disney Channel was reruning episodes to advertise who Kim Possible even was (not that I recall anyway) they were marketing it as if the kids KNEW who she was when I guarantee most kids never heard of the show. I was of the target audience back when the show came out and I was in high school about to graduate if not already graduated. I don't know, just a thought I've always had about it
EDIT: THIS FILM RELEASED IN 2019?! Yeah i was WAY out of school by that point. No way most kids would know about her unless they had a older sibling or something they showed them or they found it via streaming
Athena may not be from the original show but she ends up fulfilling the same plot function as Eric from the So the Drama movie that takes places between seasons 3 and 4, a mole for Drakken to bring Kim down from within her social circle.
I’m late but the fact that they changed Kim from being a cheerleader to a soccer player is actually a lot worse than you think. First the reason for Kim in the original being so acrobatic is due to her cheerleading skills. Second Disney is known for making the cheerleaders dumb mean girls so Kim being a cheerleader was actually a huge deal and Disney changing that is basically saying that the hero can’t be a cheerleader. The thing is cheerleading is a sport just like soccer and in my experience I have known people who do both cheerleading and soccer
my day is impoved
Probably the best thing about this movie was Patton Oswalt reprising his role as Professor Dementor from the animated series.
New HiKeiLoKei, day made
luv ur commentary videos!!!!!! this video is the only thing that makes kim possible live-action movie watchable
love you!! thank you for your great vids
funniest sponsor segement ever lmaooo
The Surfshark ad was pretty funny.
I wasn’t ready for Kei with short hair but I’m definitely not going to complain 👀
HELP MY MOMS FRIEND WORKED ON THIS MOVIE😭😭😭 it was so bad but I had to lie to her that it was good
This is supposed to be about Kim Possible. There is literally no point to Athena. I'm glad you watched it so I don't have to.
This feels like someone’s self insert fanfiction that got turned into a movie
omg kei congrats on the sponsorship 🎉
HiKeiLokei is so babygirl (and he looks nice with his hair long or short but that’s besides the point)🤭🤭🤭
why are these rich-ass parents sending their daughter to a public school?
she'd definitely be going to some fancy-ass private school lmao.
I usually skip sponsor segments, but I watched this one to support Kei. Congrats on the sponsor!
I have never seen a disney live action reboot with such little enthusiasm surrounding it's release. Of course, on the internet we all unanimiously hate the live action movies but in real life even the worse reboots like Mulan have defenders. I've had a few 40 somethings tell me they were excited for the Lion King reboot.
I think this movies failure is that kim possible isn't even *that* old. It was 14 years old when these released, so the nostalgia factor wasn't really there for an audience that was 29 at best
I and so many other people who weren't contrarian weirdos were like, "Huh? Why? The show was popular back when spy stuff was and it got lucky enough to break the 65 episode curse on fan love alone (myself included) but we were happy with So the Drama being the end for the characters. Now this gracelessly comes along and tries to drum up that same feeling 14 years later. Nope, nothing."
I love these reviews and I really think the older Disney original movies like Motocrossed or Brink! Would go great on this series
100/10 sponsorship read 😂 congratulations on the sponsor!!
Your videos are amazing!
Haven’t watched this video but I already know it’s a banger
always always love your videos! your perspective and humor are very engaging!!! i would love to see you review a good movie sometime by the way!!!
4 STORY HIGH SCHOOL??? WHAT
Yeah it’s called Greenlevel high now I think?
This reminded me to watch Sorry to Bother You, thank you Kei
HiKei Highkey, your channel has been growing. Went from tiny to that sweet sweet Surfshark sponsorship 🔥🔥🔥
Huge missed opportunity to have a real hairless rat
Oh yeah i remember when this came out, everyone was talking about it, of course mostly negative but there were also a lot of contrarians who said people didn't like it just for nostalgia
Why didnt they have athena be monique?
Think about how much of a twist thatd be
Congrats on the first sponsor
Wow youtube changed my notification preferences to no notifications for your videos. Good thing I scrolled through my subscription feed
If the script is bad, then the film suffers because of how both Characters and Scenarios are poorly written, they don't have to be likable by any means, but at least give them relatable qualms for audience to connect with.
I love this video 😭
Please review Zombieland, 1 and/or 2, its perfect and I would die to se someone review it
I literally forgot this was even a thing until I was notified of this video.
I would love to see your review about the One Piece live action!
(also congrats on your first sponsor!!)
I remember seeing some of the movie when it came out and like you said, it’s just a really big hurdle to have something so animated…not animated. I can’t image how expensive it would be to have it look what wed consider decent at this point
Sean Giambrone is probably the best casting choice here.
So a few things:
1. I want your earrings. And I bet you look great with asymmetrical earrings.
2. Im pretty sure the last time we've seen an 'original' film was with frozen (the first one)
3. The character choices has got to be one of the biggest reasons aside from the script writing that these live action remake films fail the most. (Well to me at least) I have read fanfiction stories that has more character to the characters and plot that it make films made by studios look like it came from the early 2000s fanfiction/tumblr, where people online in their youths who were just starting out. Not professionals.
The reason I got into KP, was that it showed a girl in high school who goes through the generic everyday life of an active normal girl with a twist. No MS BS, shes not a robot, shes not an alien. I feel like the writers writing this had went to a wiki-page to see what the franchise was about before making a checklist with those characteristics and then checking them off as they went. If anything if they really wanted to make a live action franchise movie for KP, I would have much rather it had been a mixture of the first few episodes from the first season of KP. Like the first mission we see her complete or maybe even an origin story of how she got into this field of crime fighting and how she had met and gained her team of friends. They already had a script they just needed to make it mesh together properly. If they can even do that properly.
I feel like Disney had attempted this with KC Undercover, and that felt better executed than this movie.
even frozen was based on a hans christian andersson fairytale TwT
Commenting to support!! Love your channel
One of the actresses names that you said is my grandma’s full name and I sat STRAIGHT up like “grandma is an actress??!!!”
Watching this film made me realize just how untouchable the animated series is. It has such an eccentric yet believable quality to its characters. Every animated character had over the top facial expressions but new when to keep it down in important moments. The episode emotion sickness somehow had more personality and more relatability to it than this entire film.
It’s so funny seeing “Adam Goldberg” in something other than the goldbergs show🤣
As somebody who grew up on kim possible even i was excited when Disney advertised this , then i watched the movie and i never watched Disney channel again. (Also why was Willow from buffy the vampire slayer in this she is too good for this trash movie) 😭
The crazy thing is that the bullying is super accurate in the movie, even a little toned down.
Okay, very toned down.
Kim got humiliated at the beginning of the movie when two ordinary goons managed to grab her and attempted to throw her off the dam. She was reduced to whimpering in fear and pleading with them.
It also doesn't help that it's pretty much the same plot as So the Drama
Yesss Kei get that bread
22:12 He just sells some NFTS that were stored in Athena’s brain so she has more storage for an anti-virus/hacking software
Alison would make a good grown-up Kim, and perhaps she and Ron had kids, and they would pass the torch to them? That would've been more interesting!
Kim Possible failed because it's a Disney Channel Original Movie, meaning it's on a very small budget. Had this been had the budget of a Disney live action remake then maybe it would have been good but unfortunately it's not.
with ron being overshadowed by athena in the film, i think it make more sense for him to have the jealousy arc, not kim
