My Freaky Family

Some people are saying the opening scene was amazing, but I see it differently. While others see incredible action, I see utter confusion. I had no idea who any of these characters were, and I was suddenly introduced to six characters with insane abilities that were never explained in any way-they were just kind of thrown at the audience. Then, after this confusing opening action scene, the movie jumps 15 years, and suddenly, they have a family. It's freaky.

The story didn't really make sense, with plenty of plot holes, including a literal hole where characters would fall in and never be seen again. The king, who was supposed to be the villain, didn't have a single good reason to be evil, only to completely flip at the first sign of trouble at the end of the movie. There was also a lot of grooming in this film, as the main villain essentially grooms the protagonist.

The freakiest part of the movie was the worm-bus guy, who literally says to a trio of 14-year-olds, "You guys like tongue?" Like, what does that even mean? I don't care if I quoted that out of context; the writers knew exactly what they were doing with that line.

Some characters were introduced only to appear in one scene and then never be seen again, even when it seemed like they would play a major role. Oh, and the brother? He kind of looks like Michael Jackson after all his surgeries.

I have to say, this movie opens with a banger of an entrance, a fast chase scene across the snowy mountains. Pity the rest of the film doesn't match this rhythm, being a boring "teenager has to value their undead/magical/caucasian family while trying to be normal".

I'll have to say though, the main villain has a memorable character design, in a sea of otherwise typical CGI faces. The animation is decent, with good backgrounds and motion, it's just a shame its standard CGI instead of something more stylized.

Overall, a recommendation if you're interested in a rather bland kind of family movie.

Poor low-quality animation distracted me the whole time from the story and the message.

The story was nothing to write home about, just another magi and wizards story.

I was rather bored from the beginning and got gradually more bored while watching it. It is rare that I count the time until a movie ends, but this was exactly the case here, I could hardly wait until it was over and done with. Again, and surprising, the animation was something that I would not expect to see anymore in 2025, it was more like 1995-2000 level. Quite disappointing to have to watch something like this in 2025. Well, that my two cents...

The animation is low quality, but the target audience, my kids, didn't care. They were engaged and laughing and having tons of fun, only losing their attention a couple of times.

But. And a huge but. The producers of this movie thought it a good idea to make their villain, a black spider like monster, a bad Trump caricature, complete with his style and manner of speech, and butchered catch phrases.

They should really try making great movies again, instead of playing stupid and puerile political games with our kids.

Given a different voice, the antagonist would have been epic, instead of a turn off for a majority of the audience. (people who have kids)

My eyes have been blessed, set upon such a beautiful, glorious movie, calling it a movie can be such an insult. This is a life-changing story that I will pass down to future generations. I sat on my chair, didn't move a single muscle, and fully glued my eyes to the screen, focusing on the cinematic views. After I finished watching it, tears was overflowing through my eyes, and brown liquid came out of my ass. I sat there for a good 12 hours. Remember every single moment. After that I had to be rushed to the hospital because the massive brown substance was eating straight through my glutes, my entire butt was carved out, chunks of meat fell out. And I was infected with Hemorrhoids and tapeworms. I believe this life changing story motivated me to change as a man and look forward into the future with my tapeworms coming out of my booty like a tail. I'm a 32-year-old man married to my beautiful 12-year-old wife, This scene made me happier than seeing my firstborn.
