    Probably my 5th watch through and I think I’m up to a 94% understanding of the full plot.

    Regardless, so good. Cast is insane, acting is insane, writing is insane, soundtrack is insane.

    Can’t wait to watch it again in two years.

  • The Gorge

    ★★½

    A cheesy, but entertaining, video-gamey, action-packed, romance movie. 

    A lot of dumbness with a sprinkle of bad ass moments. 

    Sigourney Weaver saying “release the quadcopters” was ridiculous but I had fun.

    Pretty spectacular. The uses of red and green were phenomenal. Background music was emotional. Characters and acting were very real. And the final two monologues were stupid good.

    The slowest of slow-burns and it paid off.

    “Cody is me, bro.”

    Pretty peak when it comes to animated films. The vibes are unmatched on Pengu Island. Whenever I have a bad day, I will picture Big Z bowing to the waves that blessed him with a great ride.

    Congrats to Chicken Joe.
