The Venture Bros.: Radiant Is the Blood of the Baboon Heart

I hope this is the first of many Venture Bros movies. It picks right up from where the shows ended. Thank you. So glad to get some closure, lol. This was one of the best shows on TV and so underrated, so well written and the how they tied every little detail together is impressive. Anyway, this movie was great! I only wish it was a little longer after waiting all this time since they finalized the cancellation of the series. But it was worth it. Amazing voice work, as always from the cast. I just happened to be online and I think I bought it on Amazon Prime video as soon as it came out. More than happy to send some money towards the creators, hopefully it makes bank and they keep making more of these.

Radiant is the Blood of the Baboon Heart wraps up the cliffhangers and answers the bigger questions but left me feeling like the characters didn't get to the end of their rainbows. There's a throwaway spiel about family at the end and I suppose that was meant to tie it all together It just seems like a cop-out. All in all, it felt like the last episode of season 7 with a couple series finale answers thrown in. It was a good episode of The Venture Brothers. Not one of the best but good enough.

Don't get me wrong, I am grateful to have some closure and the world is better with this closing chapter. Without it, it would have been the greatest TV travesty since My Name Is Earl.

I truly appreciate the love and dedication the whole team has put into this show over the years. The quality of animation, writing, story and character development got better with each season - and this finale was a decent way to say goodbye.

The quality of animation was top notch for this series, and the story was entertaining with only a few boring spots while transitioning through multiple plot lines. In other areas the plot felt rushed, but it's kinda expected since they didn't have a season or half-season to really expand it.

Overall its an enjoyable watch with a few lol moments, chuckle-worthy one liners, and a dash of Easter eggs and old school pop culture references.

Such a criminally under the radar show, it's so niche and unusual, and lasted through my child, teenage and now full adult years. I believe it's one of the last traditionally animated shows, it's only gotten better over time and this is no exception. It picks right up where it left off, the voice acting as always is on point and it solves as many questions as it asks, leaving me hopeful it can be picked up somewhere else. One of the all time great animated shows just waiting to go viral.

If you've never seen the Venture Bros, I highly recommend you start. The earliest season is a bit rough with the animation and it hasn't found it's footing, but still hilarious and sets up storylines that are still evolving. There are always 2 venture bros, is this a universal constant? What other secrets are lurking in Jonas venture's checkered past? What's next? Hopefully something, it's a nostalgia riddled modern show filled with topical references based on a love of 60's cartoons and pop culture.

This movie was so great! Packed with all the action and humor I've grow accustomed to with the show over the years! I'm a little disappointed pointed it was so short and had hoped they would be given a little more time to tie up all there loose ends, but otherwise phenomenal cast and characters! I could definitely see how scenes throughout the movie were originally intended to be episodes all their own. The villain and her motives were wonderfully silly for the cap stone on the Venture bros story, and it's definitely worth the watch. Let's hope a new company opens their eyes and help give the show the ending it really deserves.
