I don't know why, but this episode is very good in my opinion. I just clicked with it personally in ways that some other episodes just didn't. I wanted to re-watch this again right after and I was genuinely surprised at how great it was. I would highly recommend this episode if you're a fan of sports movie parodies or if you just want a good laugh.
The animation isn't my favorite in this episode. Akom doesn't have a bright color scheme and this episode proves this. Some of the mice's expressions in this episode were pretty well animated, though and I thought the craziness of the entire situation was well handled.
The premise isn't the most creative, with Brain trying to make a sappy sports movie to make all the world leaders so sad, that they'll hand over the world to him in an instant. However, this episode succeeds at making a simple story very interesting in the long run. The beginning with Brain trying to make Pinky cry leading to him crying over a movie was sweet, funny, and actually kind of touching. The ending was very funny with Brain shaking and vibrating all over the place. My favorite part of the episode was when Pinky and Brain were actually filming the movie by themselves. This part managed to have some humorous satire as well as some moments full of emotion, though it was fake. Overall the storyline was very fun, despite being simple.
The characters were wonderful, too. Pinky was hilarious with all his different personas in the movie. Brain was very endearing and wasn't unlikable in the slightest. The celebrity caricatures were on the spot and added some extra humor. Also, the voice acting in this episode was top notch stuff with every emotion feeling so real. It sounded like they were having a blast.
In conclusion, you should give this episode a chance. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it will make you laugh nonetheless. I'd recommend this to any fan of the show, without a doubt.
