even kids hated this movie in a review I watched the reviewer said when he was in the theater kids were so bored that they got up and moved around the theater room and when it faded to black a kid said is it over?
+InklingSethO when I was three I was as dumb as a brick I though that if it rained on earth some rain would put out the sun and that's why we couldn't see the sun in a storm that's how dumb I was
Back when I was a kid, my local zoo experienced the birth of a polar bear cub. The cub ended up being named Haley. She became very popular with zoo visitors, especially kids. Haley loved the kids in return, and she would often swim towards to windows so kids and their parents could get a better look at her, and she often put her paws on the window to greet people. She was probably more entertaining than this entire movie.
It was obvious from the first commercial that this thing would bomb. -Unknown studio -Cheap animation -January release date -Rob Schneider -Trying way too hard to be "hip" and "with the younger crowd" what with smartphones, pop songs, and fricking twerking polar bears. I knew this would be bad, but not this bad!
Rob Schnieder was a stapler, then he was a carrot, then he was der derp derpity derp derp derp, then he was an eight year old boy and now Rob Schneider is....a polar bear! And he's gonna learn that being an animal is unBEARable! Rob Schnieder is Norm of the North! Rated PG.
Rob Schneider derpty derp. Derpty derpity derpy derp. Until one day, ee derp e derp e durp e dur... Derpty der, ta teetaly toe. From the creators of Der (Alpha and Omega) and Tum Ta Tittaly Tum Ta Too (Arctic Dogs-Really?? You gotta make another arctic movie??) Rob Schneider is Da Derp Dee Derp Da Teetaly Derpee Derpy Dumb.

Yeah I can tell kids hate this movie. It’s a good thing they avoided it. Do you want to know something here. Children are a lot more smarter than we give credit for. I mean if we spoon feed kids this. It’s not going to help out there IQs in the future.
"Oh Norm, your non-stop use of dumb pop songs, cellphone gags and random movie references completely blind me with all your tremendous swag!" -Animat 2016
Nowadays Disney would make it somehow worse by making Norm gay just because "inclusion" I have nothing agaisnt homosexuality, but jeez that would be dumb.
+Matthew Rubenstein Hey, White acropiles may suck as a level, but the music is rave-tastic! Why not use that wonderful cover of Diamond Dust zone from Sonic Chronicles instead?
0:00 - 0:05 Pretty much sums it up. Funny to note is that the kids in the theater hated the movie. I was amazed that this is the first time that not only the adults like me hated an animated film but also the kids. That is sad.
I'm really proud of those kids. The dumb filmmakers behind Norm of the North probably thought kids wouldn't care about the movie, but kids are a lot smarter than what some give them credit for.
Judging from the trailer, I thought it would be bad. But my mind was blown once I saw its Rotten Tomatoes page. A 0%?! Wow. The only other animated features to receive a 0% are some of the Disney cheapquels. You did a good job of explaining all the flaws with this abomination.
+Hammer Man And while some of the Disney DTV films are terrible, and to normal professional critics its hell on Earth, and to be frank, the worst ones ARE hell on Earth, its only five critics. This is 30+. That is shocking.
Is It just me, or does every year start off the shitest animated features? Don't believe me? 2013 had Escape from Planet Earth. 2014 had The Nut Job 2015 had Strange Magic And 2016 had this.
+Kevin Synan Yep, apparently it has something to do with January. It's the time of year when a lot of movies (at least in America) that don't have much hype around them are released, mainly because it's right after the holidays.
+Fire Pit Favorites That seems to be a pattern, actually. 2013: "Escape From Planet Earth". First Animated film of the year, gets the ASOG. 2014: "The Nut Job". First Animated film of the year, gets the ASOG. 2015: "Strange Magic". First Animated film of the year, gets the ASOG. And now, in 2016, this movie gets the ASOG.
+Zodia195 That's gonna suck too. If the characters somehow manage to live through the freaking METEOR then that's just ridiculous, meteor= The End for all ice age/prehistoric life.
The one good thing is that at least we're going to get Kung Fu Panda 3 next week, giving us a better start, and maybe an improvement over January films.
I saw the trailer when I saw the Peanuts Movie, and my jaw dropped out of disturbed awe. When people say "Don't judge a movie by its poster" or whatever the saying is, they clearly haven't seen this!!
Banoffee De Fairikaik Ok. If you enjoyed it, that’s fantastic! In the words of PhantomStrider, “It’s just my silly personal opinion, and I’m glad you can see something in this that I’m not able too”!
Evan Ponte it might be possible but it has Cgi with live action in it. However, lionsgate is releasing another animated film in February called Rock Dog which was created in both China and the US.
I hate it when people dismiss bad animated film as "Just a kids film" as if kids don't deserve better and the adults who take them to see the movie should be entertained too.
Rob Schneider is a polar bear who loves to twerk! Until one day, an evil businessman wants to put homes in the Arctic! Now, the polar bear must go to the big city to save the environment! From the creators of "Der" and "Tum-ta-Teedly-Tump-a-Derp", Rob Schneider is "Norm of the North"! Rated PG!
+N05L31 Yep, saw the trailer when I saw Peanuts back in November. My eyes were rolling around like a tumble dryer. I couldn't believe this was getting a theatrical release, still can't.
+N05L31 So did everyone else. The few likes the trailer got on TH-cam must have been from the people that made it. Because it didn't even get 200 likes whereas it got over 2000 dislikes and literally every comment was about how hard it was going to suck.
Wow, so its pretty much Food Fight but released in theaters? Dear god. I mean, I know its over used, but it really feels like that South Park joke. "Rob Schneider used to be an ordinary Polar Bear, but then one day, the big bad corporations planned on building homes in his neck of the world. Now, he has to go to the big city, and stop the evil bad guy from destroying his home. Rob Schneider is, NORM OF THE NORTH DERPITY DERPITY DUMB! Rated PG!" Saddest part is, the guy who plays the villain, is Chang from Community. Yeah, why on Earth Ken Jong said yes to this movie, I can't tell you.
This "thing" (calling it a movie would be an insult to all movies) makes Strange Magic look like a goddamn masterpiece. I hope the monsters responsible for this travesty get what they fucking deserve.
You know what's worse for Mat and this movie is that his favourite comedian was in this to. Gabriel Iglesias. Dear lord, I hope Gab will make fun of this movie in one of his stories
The scene where Olivia meets norm made me cringe so hard!!!!!!! HOW DOES SHE KNOW NORMS PLAN!?!?? WHY WOULD SHE WANNA HELP NORM!?!?! I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE LEGOS!!!!
How did it get into theaters? By bundling it in with similar quality movies as part of a Christian Film Festival that wanted to include at least one 'family-frienndly' animated feature.🐻❄
I grew up watching The Land Before Time (original), Fantasia, The Secret of NIMH, The Lion King, and An American Tail. Movies of that caliber. Those movies (save Fantasia, which was meant for more culturally appreciative adults), were made for kids, and those movies actually had so much thought put into them. A movie being made for kids doesn't have to be a movie made for morons. When we show movies like this to kids and make them think that THIS is what a movie made for them looks like, it is heartbreaking. They deserve good humour, good stories, and inspiring characters. Little girls and boys deserve to see characters they can look up to, care for, sympathize with, or even be intimidated by in the case of a good villain. Not... This.
Sheesh, What a way to start a year throughout the years. 2013: Escape from Planet Earth 2014: The Nut Job 2015: Strange Magic NOW, 2016: Norm of the North Good grief, Hollywood is as cold as this month to give you an entertainment to start a year.
I personally disagree. At least this film was original while The Emoji Movie blatantly rips off other animated films (Wreck-it-Ralph and Inside Out among others)
Also why does your old teacher think this is a cute movie. My teachers atleast have a brain that they watch a better movie instead. My teacher is more interested in the breadwinner
Hey Animat. I was wondering if you could maybe review the movie "Help! i'm a Fish" or as its called in the states "A Fish Tale" its a surprisingly dark animated film from Denmark and even has the late great Alan Rickman voicing the villain. I personally like it but it does have a few flaws. I think it can surprise you though.
My scores The story: 2/10 (The first act seems like a VERY rough draft of something the writers were actually trying on, but the rest seems like they just gave up and stopped caring. The romance between Norm and his girlfriend was underdeveloped, Olympia's subplot contributes nothing to the main plot, and things would happen out of nowhere that were completely unnecessary.) The animation: 2/10 (It's incredibly subpar. The only "nice" things I have to say about it are that at least it uses the bare essentials of animation and the human designs are generic instead of atrocious like the other designs. Other than that it is complete garbage.) The characters: 1/10 (All the characters in this movie are either infuriating or pointless.) Overall: 2/10 (atrocious)
AlbertoHerrera2000 tbh even the lemmings are useless. Mr Green would try to build houses but wouldn't be able to without Norm and the lemmings so they aren't needed
To be fully honest, I saw the Seal of Garbage coming a mile away, more-so than even the Other Animated Titanic Movie. Why? Simple: IT STARRED ROB SCHNIEDER! The very instant you mention his name, a clown is stabbed in the back! He's the comedic equivalent of inoperable cancer, you're practically dead already!
Norm Took my job! Norm Took my Wife! Norm Took my kids! Norm Took my Home! Norm Took My self esteem! Norm Took over my mind! Help! He won't leave my soul!
Well, I know the Emoji Movie is going to be TERRIBLE, but I MIGHT give it a chance. But right now, Norm of the North is the worst thing to be released in theaters.
Yes, it is. At least this has essence and soul. Emoji, that's nothing but crap, a black hole of emptiness and careless advertising. But has "decent" animation, so 0.4/10
I've got an absolutely godawful piece of shit that labels itself as an environmental movie I've been looking to rip limb from limb, I suppose I can add Norm to the list.
The strange thing is that the studio behind Norm of the North and Arctic Dogs is that it was also an Aniamtion studio that did some episodes of Miraculous.
"This review is brought to you by January, solely responsible for bringing you half your worst films of the year list. January, because if it's not an Oscar-contender, why the f*** are you going to a movie theater in January?" -CellSpex (Strange Magic review)
Please explain. Even Ice Age: Collision Course isn't as lurid as this... I can't even finish that sentence with the lowest adjective in the English language.
Congratulations, Norm of the North! You are the first film of 2016 to get a Rotten Tomatoes approval rating of 0%! Amazing! Not even a month into the year and already we have a unanimously regarded turd of a film! Goes to show how quickly garbage can pop up! I'm just glad lots of better animated films are being made this decade with more intelligence and thought, like Inside Out, The Lego Movie and Frozen! Heck this year we have Kung Fu Panda 3, Zootopia and Moana coming out this year! Let's hope they do better than this! (They probably will, mind you.)
+slashermaster28 Well, a lot of people like Demolition Man and Home Alone 2 and he was in those movies. Also, there were a couple of Adam Sandler films he was in that were okay.
MrAspiringactor I guess I should have been more specific. What I was referring to there was playing the lead role. I've seen him as a side character in decent films before, but never the lead.
There's a leason to be learned here for future movie directors, and that would be: Don't release movies in January #IceBearDisapproves But seriously, this movie has probaly the worst traits from some of the worst (or most mediocre) animated movies in existence... This may as well be the Sonic Boom: (Rise of Lyric) of animated movies.
My score for this piece of garbage film is: Story: 0/10 Animation: 0/10 Characters: 1/10 Overall: 1/10 This, along with the other sequels, they made, which I cannot understand why make sequels, unless they are stupid to make more money, should burn in actual 🔥.
Thank god I never saw this movie. I heard in a movie review that there was a point we’re the screen went black. A kid asked if the movie was over. The movie resumed, and the kid said : “Aww man!”
The story 1/10 The animation 2/10 The characters 1/10 1/10 never saw it yet but boy this looks like one of the worst animated films of all time and why does a sequel have to be real?!!!
when i went into my local theater to see the good dinosaur a commercial for this came up and i was just cringing in my seat. glad to know my initial reaction was right about this film
This is the first animated film I've ever seen get 0% on rotten tomatoes. lol
Well, A Troll in Central Park did
Didn't know you were a fan of animat
+TheGamerFromMars what the fuck are you doing here marsbar
lol, I didn't expect you here.
I didn't know you watched Animat's videos.
even kids hated this movie in a review I watched the reviewer said when he was in the theater kids were so bored that they got up and moved around the theater room and when it faded to black a kid said is it over?
chris stuckmann?
If Disney made this, at least they'll take their animation seriously. NOT BY THE IDIOTS WHO CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO MAKE IT AWESOME!!
Thomas Hall yes
Joey T. Cartoonpalooza said in his V-Log that kids were stemming.
Chris Stuckmann?
my nephew hated this and he is only 3 years old! 3!
I can tell he is going to grow up to be a smart person. :)
+InklingSethO when I was three I was as dumb as a brick I though that if it rained on earth some rain would put out the sun and that's why we couldn't see the sun in a storm that's how dumb I was

What if he grows up and becomes a reviewer like animat
Number of times Ive seen the movie: 0
Number of times I saw this review on it: 10000000000000000

And with CellSpex. She did it in a funny way, too.

To be fair, that sounds more entertaining than any movie, period.
Far more entertaining. And adorable. I wonder how Haley is doing now.

If Disney made this movie...That would fix only 40 percent of it's problems. Not even Disney can fix this movie.

Disney would likely scrap the film. Even good films have been put on hold and forgotten.
Austin Reed Why would Disney scrap a film with this high amount of potential for political messages?
They probably would’ve made it a musical.
Nowadays Disney would make it somehow worse by making Norm gay just because "inclusion"

9:12 You know what's funny? A girl in my school who's around my age (19) said this movie was fine... HOW CAN ANYBODY FIND THIS PEACE OF CRAP FINE?!?!
OH HELL NO
IMPOSSIBLE
My Nana said it was cute 😫
It's a good thing a bear we do like is coming out in theaters on Friday to clear up Norm's mess.
Indeed.
you mean po from kung fu panda.
+Skylar Jones Yes
I thought it was Paddington
@@mariodelrio2387 that was 2015
This "thing" (calling it a movie would be an insult to all movies) makes Strange Magic look like a goddamn masterpiece. I hope the monsters responsible for this travesty get what they fucking deserve.
I think this makes Foodfight look like a masterpiece.
+The Official Inkwell True.
+The Official Inkwell Foodfight surprisingly has better writing than this.
Wow! Is it really that bad? What about foodfight?
+Haley angelo At least Foodfight is like The Room. So bad, but fun to watch.
You know what's worse for Mat and this movie is that his favourite comedian was in this to. Gabriel Iglesias. Dear lord, I hope Gab will make fun of this movie in one of his stories
The scene where Olivia meets norm made me cringe so hard!!!!!!! HOW DOES SHE KNOW NORMS PLAN!?!?? WHY WOULD SHE WANNA HELP NORM!?!?! I DON'T KNOW BECAUSE LEGOS!!!!
Mallory Mynatt I thought it was because...POTATOES.
Crimson Cross
lolz yeah
How did it get into theaters? By bundling it in with similar quality movies as part of a Christian Film Festival that wanted to include at least one 'family-frienndly' animated feature.🐻❄
I grew up watching The Land Before Time (original), Fantasia, The Secret of NIMH, The Lion King, and An American Tail. Movies of that caliber. Those movies (save Fantasia, which was meant for more culturally appreciative adults), were made for kids, and those movies actually had so much thought put into them. A movie being made for kids doesn't have to be a movie made for morons.
When we show movies like this to kids and make them think that THIS is what a movie made for them looks like, it is heartbreaking. They deserve good humour, good stories, and inspiring characters. Little girls and boys deserve to see characters they can look up to, care for, sympathize with, or even be intimidated by in the case of a good villain.
Not... This.
Sheesh, What a way to start a year throughout the years.
2013: Escape from Planet Earth
2014: The Nut Job
2015: Strange Magic
NOW, 2016: Norm of the North
Good grief, Hollywood is as cold as this month to give you an entertainment to start a year.
Nice use of your vine, dude! :D
***** Yup, that's me.
Oh, Hi Hewy! :D
why did you stop making reviews of movies that have currently came out
Nathaniel Foga because opinions change over time, especially after having seen a movie only once in theaters.
Hewylewis i missed when did those reviews,now i have to rely on animatt to see those kinda of reviews
Guys....I think this movie broke AniMat just by the opening alone
Ughhh, Norm Of The North is freaking HORRIBLE
Worse than the Emoji Movie in my opinion
I personally disagree. At least this film was original while The Emoji Movie blatantly rips off other animated films (Wreck-it-Ralph and Inside Out among others)
Sam Feldstein saving an environment how Original
@@samfeldstein4498 this movie literally rips off Happy Feet and the lemmings are Minions basically how is it original
Right before winter break, my teacher was like *LETS WATCH NORM OF THE NORTH ITS CUTE*
WHY??????
If my teacher put on Norm of the North, I wouldn’t be mad, this movie is so bad I like to make fun of it when watching it.
Lol my aunt loves the emoji movie and I have to deal with it.
Also why does your old teacher think this is a cute movie. My teachers atleast have a brain that they watch a better movie instead. My teacher is more interested in the breadwinner
@@samueljones3943 Mine likes the Disney live-action Pinocchio.
I can already predict the Top 5 worst animated films of 2016's #1
The first movie of 2016 to get a 0% on RT? This is gonna be a fun review.
Hey Animat. I was wondering if you could maybe review the movie "Help! i'm a Fish" or as its called in the states "A Fish Tale" its a surprisingly dark animated film from Denmark and even has the late great Alan Rickman voicing the villain. I personally like it but it does have a few flaws. I think it can surprise you though.
My scores
The story: 2/10 (The first act seems like a VERY rough draft of something the writers were actually trying on, but the rest seems like they just gave up and stopped caring. The romance between Norm and his girlfriend was underdeveloped, Olympia's subplot contributes nothing to the main plot, and things would happen out of nowhere that were completely unnecessary.)
The animation: 2/10 (It's incredibly subpar. The only "nice" things I have to say about it are that at least it uses the bare essentials of animation and the human designs are generic instead of atrocious like the other designs. Other than that it is complete garbage.)
The characters: 1/10 (All the characters in this movie are either infuriating or pointless.)
Overall: 2/10 (atrocious)
Silvia's Reviews if the writers were trying after the movie they put the story in a machine and mucked it up completely
AlbertoHerrera2000 I'm gonna name the characters that are useless.
All of them
AlbertoHerrera2000 tbh even the lemmings are useless. Mr Green would try to build houses but wouldn't be able to without Norm and the lemmings so they aren't needed
AlbertoHerrera2000 They didn't need to go to New York so there's no reason for them
Lionsgate presents Norm of the North! Rated PG for pathetic garbage.
or PG for Pretty Gay.
9:55
Hmm....feels like forever since i heard this music.
It feels haunting, but satisfying at the same time since it deserves this.
I forgot how chilling that piece is
And this is the reason why we should take animation a little bit too seriously.
So we can't have more animated disasters, like this one.
But doing something "too" much isn't a good thing either way, so there is no "should".
To be fully honest, I saw the Seal of Garbage coming a mile away, more-so than even the Other Animated Titanic Movie. Why? Simple: IT STARRED ROB SCHNIEDER! The very instant you mention his name, a clown is stabbed in the back! He's the comedic equivalent of inoperable cancer, you're practically dead already!
Norm Took my job!
Norm Took my Wife!
Norm Took my kids!
Norm Took my Home!
Norm Took My self esteem!
Norm Took over my mind!
Help! He won't leave my soul!
I wonder if the Emoji Movie is going to be worse than this
Well, I know the Emoji Movie is going to be TERRIBLE, but I MIGHT give it a chance. But right now, Norm of the North is the worst thing to be released in theaters.
But at least Sony can make some *presentable* animation. Compared to Shit of the Shite, it'd be pretty superior animation wise.
Please. This movie make the emoji movie look like Picasso
Yes, it is.
At least this has essence and soul.
Emoji, that's nothing but crap, a black hole of emptiness and careless advertising.
But has "decent" animation, so 0.4/10
Show of hands. Who wants to see Nostalgia Critic tear this film to shreds?
Also a Jeremy Jahns review would be hilarious.
+Hayden TheNayobian I would pay money to see anyone tear this movie to shreds.
I've got an absolutely godawful piece of shit that labels itself as an environmental movie I've been looking to rip limb from limb, I suppose I can add Norm to the list.
It's Ferngully, isn't it?
I want to see a clip less review
I wish The Nut Job 2 was released instead.
I also wish I DIDN'T HAVE TO SAY THAT!!!!!
Great review and nice use of the Lion King soundtrack at the end.
Yeah I loved that
+Mike Smith Wait, when exactly does that track play in The Lion King?
It's when Scar is forcing Simba to confess but it is from the soundtrack King of Pride Rock so it's not in the film but on the soundtrack.
+Mike Smith And at the final rating, it was after scar was killed and the fire was being extinguished by the rain.
HinataChick38 That is correct. The soundtrack cuts from Scar forcing Simba to confess to the extinguishing of Pride Rock, Idk why but it works.
The first 5 seconds this video is better than the entire movie.
The strange thing is that the studio behind Norm of the North and Arctic Dogs is that it was also an Aniamtion studio that did some episodes of Miraculous.
I think all of us have been DYING to see you review this!
Also, who the hell wants to live in the Arctic?!
Not me. I DO NOT do cold
is it me or is January all ways the worst month for animated movies??
+Ravindu Padmanath Kung fu panda 3 needs to change that
It is he worst moth for all movies.
+Sara Samaletdin
I call it dumping ground month. Or, as another great TH-camr said to poetically, its F**K YOU its January!
"This review is brought to you by January, solely responsible for bringing you half your worst films of the year list. January, because if it's not an Oscar-contender, why the f*** are you going to a movie theater in January?"
-CellSpex (Strange Magic review)
And for me being a movie goer with my birthday in January is very sad.
This type of of animation along with foodfight, that screams out "KILL MEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHH"
I'm calling it right now
Norm of the North is going to be the worst animated movie of this year
Yes it will be. Animat has never given out a lower rating to a theatrical film before.
+walter survive Which one was it that got a lower score?
Please explain. Even Ice Age: Collision Course isn't as lurid as this... I can't even finish that sentence with the lowest adjective in the English language.
The January curse still stands tall!
0:01 to 0:06
Norm: DIIIIIRRRRRRRR
Lemming 1: DAAAAAAAH
Lemming: 2: EEEEEEEEEEEGH
Lemming 3: HOOOOOOAAAAAAAH
Animat: EAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
0:00 - 0:06 has got to be one of the funniest intros I've seen in a long time.
Animation 2/10
Story 1/10
Characters 1/10
Overall: 1/10
DisneyYes MaxandRubyNo divide it by 3 and you get a 1/10
This movie will Make you feel like You're In a World full of Idiots Along with a big dumb dancing bear.
Congratulations, Norm of the North! You are the first film of 2016 to get a Rotten Tomatoes approval rating of 0%!
Amazing! Not even a month into the year and already we have a unanimously regarded turd of a film! Goes to show how quickly garbage can pop up! I'm just glad lots of better animated films are being made this decade with more intelligence and thought, like Inside Out, The Lego Movie and Frozen! Heck this year we have Kung Fu Panda 3, Zootopia and Moana coming out this year! Let's hope they do better than this! (They probably will, mind you.)
the creators of this film gave this positive reviews on that website. ?!??!!????!?
Best intro you've ever given. But seriously, can't Rob ever star in a good movie? Seriously.
+slashermaster28 Well, a lot of people like Demolition Man and Home Alone 2 and he was in those movies. Also, there were a couple of Adam Sandler films he was in that were okay.
+slashermaster28
Demolition Man and that's about it. It alone ruined the original Judge Dredd.
MrAspiringactor I guess I should have been more specific. What I was referring to there was playing the lead role. I've seen him as a side character in decent films before, but never the lead.
Yeah, lead role? Forget about it, no chance.
Called it! I knew this would be bad when I saw the trailer when I watched The Peanuts Movie!
i want to play banjo kazooie and tooie now.. thank you!
I mean, HEY, it has a much better bear.
Penguin Man definitely!
Ex Tech BEARS quote from the completionist
Tengushadow777 BIG THE CAT
@@penguinman2233 Banjo is best game bear.
There's a leason to be learned here for future movie directors, and that would be:
Don't release movies in January #IceBearDisapproves
But seriously, this movie has probaly the worst traits from some of the worst (or most mediocre) animated movies in existence... This may as well be the Sonic Boom: (Rise of Lyric) of animated movies.
7:07 A E S T H E T I C
"Norm of the North is possibly the worst animated film to be released in theaters!"
And then came The Emoji Movie!
It's sad how the first animated films of the year are usually the worst.
To me norm of the north seems like a direct to DVD film. That vine was hilarious😂
7:58 is that a FUCKING SING ALONG?!?!?! WHAT THE FUCK?!
Calm down.
it's not in the movie tho
thank god.
10:45 ugh! That looks like a face that saying he wants to eat your soul
C U R S E D ! ! ! ! ! ! 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

My score for this piece of garbage film is:
Story: 0/10
Animation: 0/10
Characters: 1/10
Overall: 1/10
This, along with the other sequels, they made, which I cannot understand why make sequels, unless they are stupid to make more money, should burn in actual 🔥.
I had to watch this because of my little brothers who were toddlers at the time. It was agony.
But this review has to be my favorite you’ve ever done.
Thank god I never saw this movie. I heard in a movie review that there was a point we’re the screen went black. A kid asked if the movie was over. The movie resumed, and the kid said : “Aww man!”
The story 1/10
The animation 2/10
The characters 1/10
1/10 never saw it yet but boy this looks like one of the worst animated films of all time and why does a sequel have to be real?!!!
Hey Animat, have you ever thought of reviewing Shark Tale?
This movie deserves less than a 2 out of 10.
That music you had is just effing hilarious
when i went into my local theater to see the good dinosaur a commercial for this came up and i was just cringing in my seat. glad to know my initial reaction was right about this film
