EAT SHIT, DAVID ZASLAV!
This is a really entertaining comedy, with a pace that's fast but not breakneck so that moments have a chance to breathe, lots of funny jokes, and beautiful animation. The animation itself has a lot of gags with some characters designed to exploit the Uncanny Valley so that the mere sight of them cracked me up. The only time you could feel the pacing slow down is when it focuses on the plot, since the exposition…
Goddamn, Henry Cavill would make such a great James Bond...

Then it briefly becomes a love triangle that kinda goes nowhere.
Then it becomes a different sci-fi film about colonization.
All of which is regularly interrupted by the director screaming about how much he hates Donald…
