Under the Boardwalk

Simple story, no propaganda, pure joy for the entire family, sure sometimes songs can get carried for too long but still a solid movie.

I've missed that era where animations and movies were made for people to escape! (and for children to learn a thing or two...) This movie truly made my soul happy, sure it's not a masterpiece, but it's something I would recommend shamelessly to everyone to watch.

If I had to describe this movie it would be a musical, adventure, thriller, romance.

There's around 5 songs in the movie, 2 of them are meh, the other ones are acceptable.

Adventure and thriller is the place this thing thrives, specially encouraging everyone to "come out of their shell" (pun intended.)

And to wrap it up, there's beautiful romance to finish the film on a high note.

It's a classic formula that, if applied correctly, it would be enough for you to at least enjoy your popcorn.

The biggest part I love about this movie is the purity of it. No political agenda, no secret messages.

This film was truely spectacular, I decided to watch this after it got some hate on tiktok. Many people saying it was a rip off of other movies. Personally I think the plot is very original and heartwarming. I'm very glad I watched this movie because this is one of the greatest films I've EVER watched. Amazing film for all ages. I'd say families with younger kids definitely should check this movie out. Even people older would enjoy this film. There is great character development and the ending is absolutely beautiful. Seeing the main character 'come out of his shell' sent waves of emotion through my spine. This is a must watch for all families.

So much better than I was expecting. My kid was watching it mesmerized for the whole film. So cute! It looks so good, and moves so well. Very Premium. Well worth adding to the repeat viewing list for the whole family. Great animation, characters, unique setting. Lots to come back for.

The arm scene was perhaps shocking, but I think they get away with it.

I wish we'd seen more about this sooner. It seems to have been overlooked by Paramount. But with any luck more people will see it on Paramount plus.

Give this Director more fun stuff to make! Well done to the whole team. These days most animated films disappoint, but this one nailed it!

This is a great family movie voiced by a brilliant all-star cast. It has lots of original catchy songs which really make the movie. It's a really heartwarming story of a sea crab and a land crab who fall in love, much to the initial disapproval of their friends and families due to them being on different sides. There's much more to the film than that though, and it's very funny in parts with lots of humour for both the children and the parents The land crabs are from Jersey Shore, where the movie is set, and the sea crabs are the tourists who descend upon Jersey Shore every summer much to the disgust of the land crab residents. The land crabs are so stereotypically "Jersey Shore", which makes it very entertaining. It's just a really great family movie that we've watched multiple times this summer.

SUPER cute and I loved the accents. It's a very typical "othering" story and how we have more in common than we think.

Absolutely a recommend and very entertaining.

If you're looking for a movie you can turn on for the kids at a party or to watch something light hearted for the evening, this is something that you want to turn on.

The animation is up to standard. The story is good. The humor is very clever and plays into many classic stereotypes with the Jersey accent and is very clever in it's use of scale. It is also quite heart warming and tugs on those heart strings in just the right amount.

My only criticism would be that you do need a little background in accent stereotypes to really enjoy the subtext, but if you do, you'll love it!

Check it out!
