On a whim I put this one on, computer games mixed with aliens... why not!

Miles, username Fe@rleSS_, is nearly at the end of his favourite video game, just one level stands between him and the win. The game gives him a special boost... of babies, super babies, it might not be what he expected but it's what he's got and the game is about to get a lot more real. The babies land in a ship in his backyard and his job is now intergalactic babysitter, with the added danger of a villain on their tails.

Fe@rleSS_ has a great cast of talent and the voices fit well with all the characters, but despite that there's little to help this film along. It doesn't matter how well you can perform lines what you've been given is so bland. There are some amusing moments but nothing that raised more than a small nasal exhale laugh.

The animation is nice, fun design and easy to follow, everything is just right... it really does sit exactly in the middle, not awful enough to moan about and not spectacular enough to rave about. It's not great when you start shrugging your shoulders when you talk about things.

My main issue with the film overall is the story. The idea is that something from Miles' game comes to the real world, fine, it's got the Jumanji sound to it. But in practice it doesn't look like that at all. For anyone who isn't young enough not to care about anything but the action it is entirely frustrating. There are many ways to make game life come to the real world, we see it in so many different things, so I don't understand why you wouldn't use something like that. The film makes it appear like it's all in the real world, but when you couple that with the video game aspect it doesn't make sense. The whole baby angle also doesn't make any sense, even if they are adorable.

There's a cute little message of "even dads can be superheroes", though not responsible ones who protect their kids from space battles... beyond that nothing jumped out at me at all. I'm going to be filing it under "it didn't annoy me, but I wouldn't stop and watch it if it was on."
