Hitpig!

While there are fart jokes, the fart jokes are woven into the plot. Which maybe sounds bad lol. It does have a better than average sense of humor though. Probably because the jokes often relate to characters rather than just put in randomly.

I enjoyed the chaotic, almost fever dream quality of the story. It helps the movie strike a good balance between lighthearted cartoon and heavier concepts like animals being mistreated. A lot of modern films are too serious, this isn't. Yet there is enough meat on the bones to care about the characters.

The biggest flaw of the movie is a very generic villain. At least his goal is fairly unique. He's also not the main focus. The heroes are much better.

Hitpig is a pig and a bounty hunter. He is hired by abusive Leapin' Lord of the Leotard to find his lost elephant Pickles which was freed by animal rights activist Letícia dos Anjos.

This is an animated movie from a lesser British studio. There is a lot to nitpick and I don't really want to. I don't always like Hitpig and it doesn't start off well for him. Quite frankly, I rather make it a movie about Pickles and start with him. There is certainly a lot of crazy colorful adventures. I like the elephant. The movie is restrained by how abusive LLL can actually be. He does get real crazy at the end. All the little problems do add up.

Hitpig is a delightful animated film that effortlessly blends humor, heart, and stunning animation. The voice acting is top-notch, bringing each character to life with personality and charm. The humor is both clever and silly, appealing to both kids and adults.

While the animation may not quite reach Pixar's level of detail, it's still incredibly impressive, with vibrant colors and fluid movement. If you're a fan of animal-themed films and enjoy a good laugh, Hitpig is a must-watch. It's a heartwarming and hilarious experience that will leave you smiling.

Whether you're a child or an adult, Hitpig offers a fun and engaging experience that will stay with you after the credits roll.

Some movies don't always follow the source material it's based on. Sometimes it can be for better or for worse. Unfortunately, this flick seems to be in the latter half.

It's super chaotic and hard to sit through, with each moment barely giving you time to breathe as they move to the next scene. And when they do, the parts that they want you to pay attention to are the worst parts of the movie.

That's not to say it's completely terrible, however. Some of the jokes and nice moments do land well enough to keep you halfway interested in the flick, and the actor's performances (despite the subpar and fast-paced dialogue), if anything, are good enough to keep you entertained for a few bits.

But for the characters and the rest of the humor, let's just say the laughs were a bit of a low bar. From an angry koala that constantly plays the Angry Australian trope to the letter, the flamboyant mutant Polecat who can fart nuclear flames, to the subpar in-universe celebrity that everyone loves, and the constant outdated pop-culture references and butt jokes involving Pickles, let's just say this flick doesn't really step out of the lame kid-cartoon gags that much.

Overall, nothing really special, but nothing too bad either.

I can't really deside if it was my screening copy that was faulty.

Or if this film is released with an almost complete lack of folie audio.

The audiotrack seemed miss a whole portion of folie artistry. The voiceactors, the music track are present. But only 10% of audio special effect was present. Some folie audio track. But as if a folie department made the bare minimum of atmospheric audio.

Outdoor scenes, for example in the street, totally lacked any noises of a street enviroment. Only dialog, music track and a few folie sound effects. For example: as if a door closes. Or a car starts. But nothing else. Just flat and silent.

The animation isn't horrible. The story and general plot is okay. The voiceactors does their job. But either the mixing departement forgot to included most of the folie audio tracks. OR! My copy is a early edit.

First time for everything I guess.
