Angespült: Ein Krabbenteuer

Armen (Michael Cera) is a nerd hermit land crab in New Jersey. He and his meathead friends live under the boardwalk with the other townies. During summer times, the ocean crabs arrive for their vacations. Ramona (Keke Palmer) comes with her family, but her mother insists that they stay in the ocean resort section. Ramona has a wandering heart and Armen falls in love.

This is a lesser animated movie from Paramount Animation. I do like the general concept of a townie crab falling for the exotic ocean crab. I'm not completely sold on the Jersey shore stereotypes. It's mildly humorous with partial annoyance. Michael Cera is doing Woody Allen and again, I'm not completely sold on it. This is a shorter movie. It feels like it could do more. I like the rollercoaster section. It's fine for a family flick.

This film was truely spectacular, I decided to watch this after it got some hate on tiktok. Many people saying it was a rip off of other movies. Personally I think the plot is very original and heartwarming. I'm very glad I watched this movie because this is one of the greatest films I've EVER watched. Amazing film for all ages. I'd say families with younger kids definitely should check this movie out. Even people older would enjoy this film. There is great character development and the ending is absolutely beautiful. Seeing the main character 'come out of his shell' sent waves of emotion through my spine. This is a must watch for all families.

Simple story, no propaganda, pure joy for the entire family, sure sometimes songs can get carried for too long but still a solid movie.

I've missed that era where animations and movies were made for people to escape! (and for children to learn a thing or two...) This movie truly made my soul happy, sure it's not a masterpiece, but it's something I would recommend shamelessly to everyone to watch.

If I had to describe this movie it would be a musical, adventure, thriller, romance.

There's around 5 songs in the movie, 2 of them are meh, the other ones are acceptable.

Adventure and thriller is the place this thing thrives, specially encouraging everyone to "come out of their shell" (pun intended.)

And to wrap it up, there's beautiful romance to finish the film on a high note.

It's a classic formula that, if applied correctly, it would be enough for you to at least enjoy your popcorn.

The biggest part I love about this movie is the purity of it. No political agenda, no secret messages.

Under the boardwalk follows a hermit crab named Armen. Armen suffers with anxiety and socialising due to his past, but one day he must face these fears to make it back home.

We follow Armen and his friends on separate adventures throughout the movie. We lean that there are land crabs and water crabs who dont seem to get on but overtime Armen falls in love even though its forbidden.

Throughout the movie we are able to see Armen face his fear and grow out of his shell. Armen uses his new found strength to save and protect to others around him.

As the movie is based on hermit crabs everything is on a very small scale and I felt it got alittle lost at parts. The animation is nice and smooth. There are a few songs in the movie too that seem quite silly and just seem to be in the movie for extra time.

Overall the movie is fine but nothing amazing. I dont think Id watch it again.

So much better than I was expecting. My kid was watching it mesmerized for the whole film. So cute! It looks so good, and moves so well. Very Premium. Well worth adding to the repeat viewing list for the whole family. Great animation, characters, unique setting. Lots to come back for.

The arm scene was perhaps shocking, but I think they get away with it.

I wish we'd seen more about this sooner. It seems to have been overlooked by Paramount. But with any luck more people will see it on Paramount plus.

Give this Director more fun stuff to make! Well done to the whole team. These days most animated films disappoint, but this one nailed it!
