Now, I was not going to check this film out. I mean, the trailers weren't bad, but I felt as if it was just going to be a Poop-Fart Joke filled movie. The Positive Reception that came with the Early Reviews was so surprising that it got me to buy a ticket. I came home a couple hours ago, and it wasn't groundbreaking or anything, but it was a nice, heartfelt fun time at the movies.
This movie is cute, action-packed, heartfelt and... emotional. All the characters were fun and likeable, specifically Krypto and Ace, Batman's Dog. The movie gave Ace a backstory that was very touching and it hits you in the feels, which I was definitely NOT expecting. The animation looks pretty good on the Big Screen, but isn't anything crazy. I found it WAY better than what I expected. To be fair, yes, it did have Poop, Fart and Pee Jokes, but I think the heartfelt, emotional nature of the movie overshadowed the jokes.
If you own a Dog, or any Pet and are a DC Fan, I recommend checking the film out because it's a nice, fun time and a good way to spend an Hour and a half. Enjoyable, fun and heartfelt: I would give DC: League of Super-Pets a 7/10 (For reference, I gave Minions 2 a 6 and Lightyear an 8)

DC League of Super-Pets is sure to be a fan favorite for kids who love superheroes and animals! This animated movie is full of classic crime fighting battles as well as heartfelt messages, making it a perfect family movie.
Superman (John Krasinski) and Krypto (Dwayne Johnson), the Super-Dog, have been best friends since birth. When the entire Justice League is kidnapped, Krypto must create a crime fighting league of his own, so he enlists the help of shelter pets Ace (Kevin Hart), Merton (Natasha Lyonne), PB (Vanessa Bayer) and Chip (Diego Luna) to save the Justice League and all of Metropolis.
The animation is beautiful! The characters' designs, especially the pets, are so adorable and keep a cartoonish and comic book-like feeling. The humor is great; it pokes fun at other studios (like Marvel Studios) and also at itself (DC Comics), making it relatable to teens and adults who have seen the more serious Marvel and DC movies. The voice acting is outstanding. Everyone fits their roles so well and they really bring their characters to life, displaying each one's unique personality. The actors that stand out the most are Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Natasha Lyonne and Kate McKinnon. Dwayne Johnson as Krypto and Kevin Hart as Ace are a dynamic duo as their chemistry is so apparent - no doubt due to the many times they have worked together in other films. Natasha Lyonne perfects the voice of Old Lady Merton. Her comedic timing is spot on. Kate McKinnon, as Lulu happens to be my favorite character, but I can't say why as I don't want to give away any spoilers. What I can say is that her role appears to be written specifically for her.
The primary message of DC League of Super-Pets is that friendship, teamwork and love is stronger than any superpower. There are also themes of moving on and making room for new loved ones. Plus, this movie may inspire people to adopt animals from a shelter. I know I'm ready to!
I give DC League of Super-Pets 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 5 to 12, plus pet and superhero lovers! It releases in theaters July 29, 2022. By Katherine S., KIDS FIRST!

I'll admit, the trailer for this movie made me groan every time I saw it over the past few months. I'm pleased to report that the trailer showcases some of the worst parts of the movie.
Granted, the biggest issue I had with this was that the humor just does not land most of the time. The writers felt the need to put a joke in every 10 seconds, regardless of whether it's clever or not. And it's not that it's "kid-humor" that I just didn't get as a 25-year-old man. Even the kids in my theater were silent most of the time.
However, I'd say about 10% of the jokes actually did work for me and I belly-laughed several times, which I did not expect.
Now, the most pleasant surprise of this experience for me was the characters. They're all very distinct and have very clear traits, quirks, and flaws that they work through emotionally through the story.
Even though it's a story that's as formulaic, cliched, and predictable as it gets, I found it effortlessly watchable as just about every scene has a very cathartic moment for at least one of the characters. This film actually got me to care about these animal characters despite its absurd silliness.
I suppose it's nothing I haven't seen before, but it was so colorful and purely competent that I can't knock on it too hard.
There are worse ways to spend an hour and a half. This is a relax-on-a-weekend-with-the-family kind of movie.

DC League of Super-Pets (2022) follows Krypto the super dog and his new friends as they aim to save the justice league from a new villain. I had a great time watching this film, it may not have been perfect but it was an amusing and easy watch!
The characters were fun, with easy-to-digest flaws and a lot of likeable qualities. Natasha Lyonne's Merton was a stand-out! The voice acting was pretty good and the film was full of famous names which honestly really surprised me!
The humour in this movie was something I didn't expect to like, but ended up really enjoying! There were some witty one-liners that had me chuckling, and some pretty well thought out jokes. The humour was, obviously, surface level, but I really liked this about it as it made for a very entertaining watch.
The animation was good and had its own style, however unfortunately I didn't really like it all that much. The main villain, Lulu the Guinea pig, didn't look much like a Guinea pig at all and was somewhat confusing. The animation was a bit too strange and not so easy on the eye.
The soundtrack for the film was great, and included loads of well known tracks. The music used kept my attention and made the film even more fun to watch in the cinemas. It included a broad range of genres too but this all worked!
Lastly, the plot was very surface level, but this wasn't a bad thing, and the pacing was fairly steady and fast. The plot was laid out well and explained everything in very simple terms which is understandable due to it being targeted at children. The fast pacing was a good decision as it doesn't allow the audience time to become bored.

I had the privilege to see this film at an early screening and being a comic fan, I was actually looking forward to this.
Without spoiling anything, the plot is essentially Superman's dog and other dogs with powers saving the Justice League. I can't imagine that I've spoiled anything because you could see that plot coming a mile away.
With that said, the film is exactly what you would expect, nothing more or less. While that might not sound groundbreaking, it's not a bad thing either. It's charming, can be extraordinarily funny, and the voice acting is great. Granted, it is really tough to hear Dwayne Johnson's voice in an animated movie and not picture the character of Maui from Moana.
However, I can't see this being a movie for everyone. The League of Super Pets has always divided a good chunk of the comic fanbase. Some love it and some hate it, it really depends on not only your taste but what you really grew up on in entertainment. The comic series was never as edgy or groundbreaking as its peers and the movie certainly stays along those lines.
So overall, I personally really like this film. It's fun and entertaining from start to finish. It's not nearly as dramatic as some of DC's most recent work, which I personally view as a blessing.

So much character development and love able story all around, such a blast for a cartoon movie! Better than a lot of DC films this deserves any hype. Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart have collaborated at least 6 times which makes sense they are perfect together. I like how Kate McKinnon was in Wonder Woman 1982 and in this she's an ultimate villain. Furry greatness for most anyone!

Before you watch this movie you need to remember, this is not on the level as Toy story, Cars, and other high level animated movies but it is on the level of a movie that will have you smiling, crying, and wanting to buy another pet.
Watching the movie I noticed many adult jokes as well, that some older people will get a kick out of. Some parts drag a little bit but with solid segments make up for those areas. This movie was funny. Twice as funny as Thor Love and Thunder.
Technical wise... the animation focuses mostly on the up close image and lacks the background. Almost leaving it as a faded 2D background.
A slow start but is brushed aside with a great emotional finish to the film grants this film 7 Stars.

I was so excited for this movie. Kevin Hart was beyond funny in Secret Life of Pets. I assumed this would be even funnier because he was teamed up with The Rock. I laughed two times and they both were at Batman. Also, why did the movie feel the need to put a cuss word in just to bleep it out. My grandkids had to ask me what was wrong in the movie because it happened more than once. In my opinion, this was just another way for a Superhero franchise to branch out and make more money. Create subpar kids movies that will sell no matter how bad they are because they are kids movies.

It's not bad. It's not bad at all.
I think story wise I was expecting it to go down differently, but I like the animation and it was humorous for what it was
And once again The Rock and the Hart are a perfect team. I can't complain about that. They got charisma.
It's definitely designed for little children but as an adult, I took a likening to it because it makes for a great parody of the DC Superheroes.

Lots of knowing jokes for adults about the superhero genre. Lots of funny gags for kids. The story works and the voice talent do their best. A very decent watch.

Who is this movie for? Not only is there very blatantly implied swearing in the movie, multiple times. There are references to sex, racial jokes, social justice nonsense.
Can we leave this trash out of movies for CHILDREN?

I went into this film expecting a blatant soulless and charmless attempt by Warner Bros to set up a new franchise to suck youngsters into the corporate money making machine and get them interested in the more adult DCEU. However, despite some of that being true I have to say I was surprised how charming this film was.
The animation is very good and the voice cast is great (with Kevin Hart particularly well suited). The film is also full of little nudges and winks to previous DC superhero films and the opening scene is a particularly good homage to the original 1978 Superman film. There are also enough sly jokes in the script to keep grown up DC fans entertained (including one about a moustache that should keep Zack Snyder fans happy) and a couple of decent musical cues too.
My only grumble is that this film is slightly too long and I could hear children asking their parents to take them to the toilet. Personally I think this film should have been cut down to 90 minutes, partly because of the target audience attention span and partly because it does get bogged down in a couple of places with unnecessary detail that add nothing to it.
All in all this is a better than expected film. Despite my reservations going into the cinema to see it I was won over by how well made it is. It's perhaps slightly more violent than I would have expected and there are a couple of swear words bleeped out (at least in the UK version, not sure about other countries). However for a film aimed at the 5-11 year olds it is actually a really enjoyable effort.

A film with a fairly forgettable story, even the animations are little stuff, a film that adds nothing to what has already been seen in the past in the dc universe, a hole in the water.
While DC League of Super Pets is not top notch DC animation, it provides a better experience than most live action DC outings. Boosted by a terrific voice cast, this is hilarious good time for both superhero fans and pet owners.

Krypto the Super-Dog and Superman are inseparable best friends, sharing the same superpowers and fighting crime side by side in Metropolis. However, when the Man of Steel and the rest of the Justice League are kidnapped, Krypto must convince a ragtag group of animals to master their own newfound powers for a rescue mission.
When first going to see this movie I didn't know how to feel as I thought I might be to old to see a cartoon meant for children but I ended really liking this movie. The animation is so good and the voice acting is incredible but what do you expect when you get Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Heart in this movie with tons of other well known and talented actors like Keanu Reeves and John Krasinski just to name a few. The humour is really meant for children which I didn't find funny but I see how kids may find it. And there is even a really emotional scene that made me cry a little.
Overall this is a really good movie to take your kids to!

Liked: It's a kids movie but adults will like it too.
Loved: Kate McKinnon. Absolutely fantastic as a villain!
Great family film. Some spots were borderline not for kids as far as dialogue but for the most part its nice and clean. Loved all the small details such as Krypto wearing his glasses to hide his identity or the Superman hair curl when Baby Clark was in the pod. My favorite thing about this movie was the musical score. Especially in the beginning. That piece of music was a treat to hear in Dolby. There's a mid-credit scene that adds to the movie and a post credit scene that the Rock for some reason has spoiled for all his followers. I would stay off his social media till after the movie if you want to avoid the spoilers Overall it was a fun flick!

You know like Multiverse but with pets .. as in Multi-Paws? Does that pun actually work? You'll be the judge of that. You also be the judge of this changing the (back)story of all the DC characters ... well maybe not all. But since it does change how Superman came to Earth ... or rather with whom ... well let's call it one more timeline "to follow". If you can dig it that is.
Still the movie is super fun. Whether you are a fan of the comics or not (I actually am not even sure if there is a comic book universe where they explored the pets idea, but I imagine there is at least one). That being said, the fact that Black Adam himself (the Rock also known as Dwayne Johnson) is doing the voice of one of the dogs ... might be quite mind blowing to some ... gets even better if you watch it through the end. And by the way when I say to through the end, I mean there are scenes after the movie is over. That is mid credit scene and after credit scene. And they both are worth the wait - even if everyone else has left the building (the theatre in my case).
Good fun with a lot of great voice acting/actors. Animated movies have stepped their game up.

Took 4 kids to watch this movie. They are age 9-10. I think it did a great job entertaining kids and parents. I haven't watched movie with kids for a long time, I usually ask my teenager son to act as a supervisor while I took some time off at the mall. But I was pleasantly surprised.
The only thing I did not like so much was one character was voiced by Kevin Hart. I love watching Kevin Hart a lot, but he really needs to do a great job as a voice actor. I felt myself zoom out of the movie a few times, thinking, oh, this is Kevin Hart....

For a kids movie I thought this was very distasteful. It's like they went on a mission to put in as many cuss word phrases as possible. "I can't see bleep", "what the bleep" "son of a bleep" "go to heck" and more. Totally unnecessary for a movie supposedly made for young children. Would have been significantly better without it.
I wish it was longer, but it is for kids. I really liked this movie. I loved the pet villains and heroes. I thought it was fun and cute.
The animation was great.. The story telling was humorous and with a lot of personality.
I loved how they brought in different characters for cameos.

I was expecting this to be an only for kids type of film but it brought me back to the original Superman movies. They have some funny jokes, a storyline intense enough for adults yet not too scary for little kids. Anyone who loves pets would enjoy this film! My daughter thought it was cute and hopes there will be a second one.

This movie is a mess. The alphabet soup is in full effect and distracts from the action - Disney fail. Kids were getting antsy in the theater. Seems like a winning cast but too much going on for kids. Funny, was at 5/10 last night on here before we saw it, now at 7/10. Almost like they deleted lots of negative reviews like they did with "Capt Marvel" that went from 3/10 to 8/10 overnight after they purged the "trolls." Reading through the reviews, most are like this one. Seems like a solid story and with these stars you would expect it to work BUT you have to remember the audience is 8 year olds. Bad guy escapes and goes on a rampage. Real supers are taken out and pets have to step up. Good idea poorly executed with the agenda overshadowing any progress. Skip it or wait for rental.
