When discussing this movie, there seems to be two trains of thought. Either it's an affront to cinema as a whole, or everyone who doesn't like it is a sensitive prude. So when I sat down to watch it, I was expecting something truly outrageous. But in my honest opinion, it was just ok.

A few sketches were laugh riots, others were mildly amusing, some started out funny but lost steam, and some were just plain bad. A lot of the humor comes from getting A-list actors to do some pretty lowbrow and gross things. And I watched the movie twice due to the different framing devices, I gotta say the ones with the teens is funnier.

Overall though, while I don't regret watching this, I wouldn't actively seek it out either. It's a pretty silly, raunchy, dirty comedy that doesn't make sense at times, and I like that it takes pride in that. But as much as I like the idea of it, too many jokes and scenes fall flat, so I gotta give it a 5/10.

Other than a few modern references the humor and overall style is unchanged from the original show. And just like the original show, it's a bit hit of miss. Some episodes are laugh riots, some episodes are a bit boring, and others can be a little cruel. Unfortunately, this show has been review bombed like heck cause an episode tackled an uncomfortable topic and people got offended. Seriously, in the age of Family Guy, South Park, and Big Mouth, how soft do you have to be to get offended by The Proud Family? It's truly unfair and does not accurate reflect the quality at all. I would give a 7/10 but due to this circumstance I gave it an 8, because it's unfair how this show got targeted due to some crybabies getting their feelings hurt.

Jon is firm but usually fair, and there's plenty of great advice on running a bar. Some episodes are wild and raunchy, while others are borderline tearjerkers. My only beef is occasionally Jon goes too far with the remodel and strips the bars of their characters, making it all generic and hipster-like. They usually knock it out the park though. But overall, this is a good time waster and it'll definitely keep you hooked.
