Please recognize that my unbelievably generous 5 is based on a rating a kid would probably give this movie. I realize most kids will like it, but most kids will like almost every kid movie. I am claiming that GOTJ is a very weak movie on the kid-o-meter, though I am light years from being "kid-o-meter" hip.
As an adult, it is the worst piece of stupidity I have seen in a long, long time - probably ever. I generally like kid's movies, but this was just junk. I'm not fond of talking animals, humans in gorilla suits, the same gags repeated at least 100 times, subtitles, slapstick, idiot behavior, etc. The problem here is that it had all of those things - and I really hate the compounding effect miserably created.
Actually, to be fair, I only watched the first half. It is a metaphysical impossibility for the second half to be worse than the first half. But as bad as the first half was, I think it is also (strangely) a metaphysical impossibility for the second half to be any BETTER than the first half as I believe both halves were written, directed and produced by the same persons.
I have not seen a movie that I would rate less than a 4 in years. I try to be reasonably careful before I spend my time. However, I would rate this movie at about a 0 (negative, if allowed) for adults - easily the worst movie of all time! I hate to use up such a wonderful stigma on such a meaningless three year old film, but I have waited for many years to assign such a lowly title and now I feel really, really good!
