Great Watch
If you're like me and enjoy a bit of adult humour, this show is for you. It has you laughing through every episode. Sometimes the plot is easy to follow, other times you get surprised with a plot twist. Dark humour, animation and a main character that's an alcoholic sociopath.

Fantastic voice acting
Good Dog
In my opinion, Wes Anderson is pretty overrated. Other than Grand Budapest Hotel, I haven't been a big fan of anything else that he has done, yet critics and fans seem to adore everything he touches. This meant that I had hardly any hype going into Isle Of Dogs and only seen it because of some good reviews I had read online.
This film is great. It features an incredible cast, whose voices all work remarkably well for this story. The stop-motion animation is astonishing and beautiful at times and it tells an interesting, satisfying story.
There isn't much not to like here, the only thing that I will say is that although the animation style makes this sort of look like a kids movie, I would not recommend it for kids. There are some fairly adult themes present and a kid would probably get bored while watching too.
Overall, this film is definitely worth a watch, even if only to see the impressive stop-motion animation on show.

It's for Kids
Look, it's not Citizen Kane. But kids movies are usually not great, and kids Christmas movies are especially bad. This was actually enjoyable, especially because of the voice acting.
If you are an adult, I can't recommend watching more than once. But as a parent, I look forward to watching this over the Jim Carey version ever year.

Fun movie
A fun movie to remind you of your childhood, full of nostalgia of the original games with a modern twist. The animation is good and Ryan Reynolds as pikachu is just brilliant add and adult element to a childish movie. A fun watch for a few hours, just don't expect the story line to be anything other than it is, very predictable at times, but still good.

Sanda oh
Watched today wanted to see what all the fuss is all about without giving too much away this is coming of age drama especially if you’re a teenager we’ve gone thru it me back in the 80s but at least I didn’t turn into a giant red panda. The animation is great especially on Mei as she turns into the panda overall decent movie for the kids some of its abit adult for youngsters but not bad movie

Fly Dumbo Fly
Rewatching this classic animation movies now as a adult, its so great and wonderful and gives a whole new perception on this classic animation films that you wouldnt as a child. Dumbo being one of them.
The Plot: A young circus elephant is born with comically large ears and given the cruel nickname Dumbo. One day at a show, he is taunted by a group of kids, inciting his mother into a rage that gets her locked up. After Dumbo's ears cause an accident that injures many of the other elephants, he is made to dress like a clown and perform dangerous stunts. Everything changes when Dumbo discovers that his enormous ears actually allow him to fly, and he astounds everyone at the circus with his new talent.
Seeing Dumbo finally fly for the first time, made me cry. It was such a great moment.
A classic.

Moral of the story
Not just for kids
As much as i love horror films i also love kids films. I had meant to watch this since it came out but i kept forgetting. I finally got around to watching it and i loved it! The story is motivational, watching it as an adult you can see the underlying tone of racism and how Judy (the bunny) gets her dream job and does it wonderfully! I even like how she turned Nicks life around. Even though Judy and Nick are different speices i think they'd make a great couple

Shrek-tastic fun
Found this gem whilst browsing online, I was surprised I hadn't heard of it being a fan of the franchise so was eager to give it a look.
based on the 2001 DreamWorks Animation film Shrek and featuring elements of sequels Shrek 2, Shrek Forever After and William Steig's 1990 book Shrek! This is a brilliant performance by both cast, crew and musicians with wonderful set colours & designs, really catchy musical numbers classic lines & some subtle adult jokes.
The runtime is a little over 2 hours which is more that enough to enjoy.

The Queens Corgi needs putting down
Contains spoilers, click to show
Wow what did I just watch.
It started well a cute and funny 2mins showing the new corgi arrive. The interaction between the dogs and the palace servants was good.
From here:
Trump shows up and flirts with a random woman which is cringy and just feels wrong
The animation of anyone outside of the palace looks rushed
Trump brings a final dog to breed with the queens corgi, so proceeds a scene where the queens dog is sexually harrassed whilst the American dog declares shes on heat and wants him.
Queens dog ends up in dogs pound where dog fights occur, one dog is dragged out after one such fight in a mess.
The animation of the other dogs is poor
Nothing fun or interesting in the final half hr.
It is a poor kids film, that poorly tries to insert adult humour that is just cringeworthy or in bad taste.
Avoid at all costs. The worst animated kids film I have ever seen... ever!!
