The Emoji Movie (2017)
It's Not Good, but It's Not Horrible
I know it's really fun to bash this movie, but speaking honestly, I have to say this movie was okay. The story is predictable, the twist was not surprising, the romance between Gene and Jailbreak felt forced, and I didn't care for the humans, but the story at least had structure and competency, and was consistent. The majority of the humor is weak and immature, especially with the Poop Emoji. Some of the gags managed to make me chuckle, not laugh but I did find enjoyment. The animation is good, it's colorful and energetic, and there are some creative scenes, even with the product placement scenes. However the designs of the Emojis are really, really simplistic and some are even creepy. The characters are not interesting. Gene is the same old "I wan't to fit in" character, and the other characters are also the same old tropes as well. The characters also have their developments presented in the most generic way possible. The characters that stand out for me is the villain and Gene's parents. Mostly because they supply the best comedy and the villain has an this crazy personality that kept me active. The Emoji Movie is a meh film that's suited to entertain kids.
Rocket Monkeys (2013)
It's Not a Good Show, But It's Not a Bad Show
Rocket Monkeys is not the worst show of all time. On a positive note, there are some chuckle worthy moments. The voice acting is mostly fine. The animation can be creative at times, like the transitions. And some characters like that Spanish robot guy are passable. But with a mediocre show like this, expect things to dislike or even hate. As I said, there are some chuckle moments, but majority of the jokes are annoying, forcefully gross, low brow, and of course unfunny. The animation on the characters have choppy fluidity. Characters like Gus and Wally are commonly irritating. The plots are predictable as so is the humor and the character interactions are periodically too quick or artificial. Although the theme song is pretty catchy. If I had to give it a free rating, it would be a 4.5/10
Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)
Same Thing But Shorter
The Last Knight is better than Revenge of the Fallen and Age of Extinction, but is it a good movie? No. It's still terrible. Besides some interesting visuals, it's the same thing. There's the usual cringe worthy humor, the Autobots get less than half the amount of screen time the humans have, pointless product placements, boring action with explosions, annoying human characters, disappointing villain, and the very predictable plot. The only difference is that it's thankfully shorter than Age of Extinction and Dark of the Moon. If you enjoy the Micheal Bay Transformers films then this is for you, but if you're sick of this awful franchise then don't even bother with this film. 3/10
Wonder Woman (2017)
Very Mediocre If I Do Say So Myself
Wonder Woman is not a terrible film. There are very noticeable qualities in this film. The two main characters, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor, are very likable, their acting is so good, and they have a well written romance. Some of the visuals are nice to look at such as the island of Themyscira. The film also offers really good messages like how humans in general are messed up and stuff.
Unfortunately that's where the positive stuff ends. Everyone besides the two main characters and the two or three characters that were okay, are so incompetent, it makes my head hurt. The villains are very weak, probably the 2nd weakest villains of the DCEU so far, and that's saying a lot. The CGI, action scenes, cinematography, and score/music ranges from terrible to passable. And that ending....If it weren't for that ending, I would've given this film a 6 or 6.5, but that ending killed the film.
So in the ending, it's Wonder Woman's character being destroyed by fighting Aries in the most mindless way possible. They had a very wonderfully written, well executed message and shat on it. The reason for Steve Trevor's death, my favorite character in the film, was so unreal and forced, I wanted to scream in the theater. But I guess Wonder Woman, so far, is the best or least bad DCEU movie. It's a 4.5/10 but I didn't hate it as much as Suicide Squad or Batman vs Superman.
