    I want my time back

    Me and my good pal of 43 years watched this movie at our high school reunion and it is safe to say everyone walked out of the auditorium in an instant. There was no plot whatsoever and the red dude and glasses guy kinda annoyed us all i'm not gonna lie. Giving it 3 stars as i cried at the bit where the anthem started playing and i love America. I found it very odd.

    Also, the teachers all need a sack as their activity was VERY creepy and suspicious. The only good character in the ENTIRE movie was the guy who got clobbered in the abandoned school area (where is health and safety when you need it) because he was in the apparently very legal school mafia club. Actually, since it i a school club, they just beat up this poor dude because of his club activities. God forbid a man have hobbies in this world.

    Overall, i need my time back, my wife left me.

    It was Cool.

    The animation was great, some of the humor was also great, too. The action was amazing (In my opinion, though). If you want to watch a good action movie with your family, then I really recommend this movie.
