Sketch

This movie involves fantasy, monsters and family and friends protecting each other during a time of danger. It is an allegory and deals with the loss of a wife and parent and approaches how each family member deals with their grief individually and collectively. It is very entertaining with both funny, scary (even for adults), and poignancy. Great film that reminded me of a re-envisioned Jumanji (the original film) that comes from a sketchbook instead of a game. Not for very small, sensitive children. Wonderful family film with a deep lesson that brought me to tears having recently experienced my own loss of a loved one.

I really really liked this movie. I know there are people that are being critical saying that it was demonic however I think this is very relatable for kids. I did not find it "demonic" or "evil"I found it as the opposite actually I saw it as a heartwarming movie. One of the biggest points of this movie is when the brother says you're not a bad or evil person just because you drew an bad monster. This movie really does highlight that kids do not know how to regulate that emotion. They need to know that it is okay for them to have strong feelings. They need to know that it is okay for them to be angry upset or sad. They need to be reassured that it's normal if somebody makes you mad sometimes you want to smack them (that's normal even as adults we do the same thing don't lie when somebody makes you mad in your mind you're setting there thinking dang I really wish I could smack this person) it's a normal response. This was a great movie. It shows not only the kids growth but the dad's growth. I probably don't make a lot of sense there's so much I could say about this movie.

I usually skip out on angel studios movies because of how religiously biased they are and the bad editing and subpar acting, but this one was actually done right. The acting was good, plot was good, characters written well, and overall a lot of fun. Highly recommend for a fun movie night at the theater with your family or by yourself(me) because all ages would enjoy this movie. Don't get me wrong, angel studios has a tendency to make a mid movie, but this one felt like more than a cash grab for christians.

As grandparents, we did not feel this was an appropriate movie for small children. Maybe it should have had a PG-13 rating for the scariness and violence. We went to view it at our local theater yesterday and a women and her daughter left mid movie. On the positive, my artistic neurodivergant adult daughter loved it.

Sketch is rated as a Family movie. It's definitely for mature older children. I would not take children under 12. There is some strong content and language. My husband and I went to watch it before we took the grandkids and I'm glad we did. There's a lot of "perceived" violence.

I will say the story line is great. I just think that all of the language could have been left out and some of the violence toned down.
