I really, really didn't want to like this movie.
I watched it as a courtesy to my younger self, who would have loved this shit. Before we Knew Kevin Spacey properly. I can't see past the casual slurs and the shouting and the Kevin Spacey.
But goddamn, Jack Lemmon carries this thing through the moon. He chews up every line and spits it back out at you, carrying a smile throughout. You see this sleazy motherfucker but you can't help…
Gromit, my king, my feminist icon, my critical thinking mastermind, you've done it again!!!!
What a stunning achievement! I certainly wasn't expecting COMMENTARY from this, but I got it nonetheless. It looks absolutely beautiful, it sounds crunchy and delightful, and it feels like a hot cocoa on a cold day.
How long it must have taken to make this. How much the animators must have toiled. You can see it in how Gromit looks. He's so expressive, and doesn't even…
Cartoonish, loud, and flashy in the correct ways. Robert Pattinson in this nutjob performance and Mark Ruffalo playing who looks to be a horrifying bastard child between Elon Musk and Donald Trump were the standouts.

There are certain things that confused me, like the character Kai and her motivations. But this movie felt worth the time and money I spent to watch it.
Why the hell are there three movies? WHY THE HELL ARE THERE THREE MOVIES??
