![]() Adults on their own won’t have a great time here. It’s a stupid movie a lot of the time, resorting to fart gags and how gross vomit is and things like that. ![]() Surprisingly entertaining.Įven if this movie is pleasantly surprising, my expectations were super low. It also will appeal to adults in a lot of ways too. So this movie will appeal to kids obviously because there are plenty of fart jokes and people getting hit with things. It shows off the creativity of a child in a really interesting way. When Tim imagines that he’s a ninja, the animation style shifts to a standard 2D animation. However, the movie itself is visually pretty incredible, with all sorts of different art styles throughout. The trailers showed you one aspect of the movie, which looked relatively unimpressive.

Imagine a world where some babies, before getting “sent” to a loving family, become bureaucrats in a large business focused on keeping the baby business alive and well. Is that bad? I know I’m not the demographic for this movie but here’s my two cents. It looked cringeworthy and I only wanted to see it so that I could trash it. ![]()
