Ruby Gillman - La ragazza con i tentacoli

The titular character is honestly a very lovable character, and her anxieties surrounding managing the two sides of her life; the struggles of her teenage life and her new challenges of being a giant kraken. The film suffers from a multitude of small problems that build up to kind of lessen the experience. Weird exposition along with elements of the plot not being explained until the plot requires it. The film could have done better to blend the two elements, and with some ironing out of the details, it could have been much better. The movie is visually stunning, with very energetic 3D animation. As it is, the movie is definitely worth a watch, as it's the best mermaid movie in theaters now. At least watch it for the Mr. Gillman ASMR.

Here's The 4K Lowedown on the advanced screening of "Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken" (PG - 2023 - Theater) Release Date: 6/30/23

A shy teen learns that her destiny lies in the depths of the waters, which is bigger than she could have ever imagined.

"Ok Ruby...have a completely, totally, ordinary day...you've got this." This was a cute film...one that I think caters to the younger audience more so than the parents. This looked to be prime real estate for the 6-14 range, as it felt a lot like Turning Red. I would have bought it on physical...my autistic granddaughter would like this, I think. With good artwork, great voiceovers, and a fantastic soundtrack, this makes for a pretty good watch.

Dreamworks has created the b*stard child of Pixar's Luca and Turning Red. And it falls somewhere in the middle of those two film's quality.

It mercifully has far less annoying characters than Turning Red, and handles its near-identical adolescent themes of family loyalty, self-actualisation, and trust with far more tact and nuance than that film did.

But it borrows the other half of its concept and plot from Luca, and it lacks the genuine heart and soul that was the one saving grace of that film.

There's a lot to like about the implausibly gonzo concept and over the top elements and characters. But the generic, conveyor-belt-produced story is hard to look past, as there really is not a single aspect of what I just saw that has any staying power. I'll forget this quickly.

I'm 30 and this made me feel like an innocent 8 year old nice for someone that has autism and tries really hard to be a good person/wholesome often. This was a wonderful family film that had me captivated throughout and would recommend to anyone! Very well made I'm sure this and Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse will be nominated next awards season. Ruby Gilman, Teenage Kraken was a wonderful choice for Monday mystery movie that I hope when it does release fully a lot of appreciate it with their families or by themself. The flow, colors, story, voices and mature lessons were all great I should try to do more of the surprise movies.

I think this movie is not considerably unfavorable. I think the animation looks great but everyone says the animation looks horrible and I don't blame them for having their opinion about it. But it's just another fish movie. That DreamWorks created which is Shark tale and Sinbad which those movies were horrible. I think they could have done a little bit better with the movie but I'm not really disappointed nor that I feel good about this film. It's similar to The Little mermaid remake but the mermaids are evil. I kind of wish that the movie did good but no it just seems to be alright but not good.
