Video Brinquedo have been branded The Asylum of animation for good reason. Their output is consistently awful, with the exact same flaws in everything they've done so far with no improvement whatsoever.
Just to say, if being asked why keep watching, the answer is simple. Curiosity. There is something somewhat compulsive about their badness, but it compels anybody to see what else they've done and compare, also to see if they've made anything worthwhile. The answer is that none of them are, and while some are worse and more intelligence insulting than others the amateurish (and that's being kind) quality is consistent. 'Os 3 Porquinhos' may not be among Video Brinquedo's very worst, but it has everything present that help make their output as deservedly negatively reputed as it is.
It is hardly surprising that the animation in 'Os 3 Porquinhos' is awful. In Flash rather than CGI (both of them hard animation styles to do but CGI from belief being more expensive), everything that makes their animation so ugly can be seen in the animation here. Very stiff character designs (the witch is especially poorly drawn), even flatter colours, static and less than fluid backgrounds and lots of times where it repeats itself shows a sign of sheer laziness than budget limitations. Seeing as films/shows/episodes have done wonders with low budget, the budget or lack of it is not an excuse.
There are very repetitively scored story-book/fantasy themed bingo/slot games that have more energetic and involving scoring than that of 'Os 3 Porquinhos'. The music here is both repetitive and forgettable, and also sounds cheap and rarely fits with what is going on.
Writing once again is appalling, and doesn't even have unintentional humour value, with clunky and draggy exposition and the irrelevant chatter and the more senselessly nonsensical parts give a real excessive long-winded quality. Adults will find it too juvenile and even kids will feel like it went well overboard trying to dumb down to them. Again a big problem when so dialogue-heavy. At least 'Os 3 Porquinhos' doesn't have narration as ear grating as that of their version of 'Rapunzel'.
Admittedly, there is more of a story in 'Os 3 Porquinhos' than most Video Brinquedo offerings. The bad news is that the story still isn't that engaging, often taking forever to get to the point and with too much excessive and pointless rambling that gets really repetitious quickly.
Once again, the characters on top of being hideously animated are both bland and irritating, a few unintentionally creepy. Plus because little is done to make the wolf funny, menacing or interesting one can't even say they can root for him, not as irritating as the pigs but much more could have been done with the character. The voice acting is lifeless or unbearably obnoxious, like they didn't even try or even want to be there, it was almost like they were bribed or would do anything to get some quick cash.
In summary, very, very poor and the worst adaptation to exist of 'The Three Little Pigs' by quite some way. 1/10 Bethany Cox
