If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
View MoreIt's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
View MoreEach character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
View MoreThis movie is a cinematic adaptation of the animations of the website Huevocartoon (Eggcartoon).I like to see those animations: Even when the quality of the animation it is way too simple, the jokes are pretty funny and witty. However, this movie, unlike the animations from the website (Which had plenty of adult humor) was aimed to the children. For that reason, most of the humor was considerably toned down (Though there are still a few hints of adult humor which appear in some moments of the movie. There are also some cameo appearances of some of the regular characters from the website, playing several of the most famous gags, but most of the characters from this movie are completely new.Even if this movie isn't a masterpiece, it still possess some entertaining qualities that made it work.
View MoreEven though the film is of Mexican origin, it was totally produced in Argentina by Hook Up Animation studio which has been in charge of its production since the story board, composition and the editing of the film as well.

Along all this time, work has been devised in order to be able to overcome one of the most important challenges: that is, give life to these well known characters conceived on the internet, and take them to the big screen.

View MoreWell, I've been a fan of Huevo Cartoons for years, and honestly, the movie is kinda disappointing... Don't get me wrong, for some people who haven't seen their work before, it may not seem that bad, but for me, who I'm used to their REAL type of humor, this was just an entertaining movie that could have been SO much better without trying to soften the humor for the kid's sake, I think they'd have been much better off by just rating the movie as an adult's movie so that they could exploit the real potential of the movie, after all, the success they've had in the internet speaks by itself... But this movie can't give any idea of their real work to people who have never seen their sketches on the internet... Hopefully, next time (if there's another after this one)they'll exploit the whole potential and create better characters with another type of story... I mean, not so much for kids :-s , because, anyway, the people who watch their cartoons on the internet aren't kids (and if there are, believe me they're doing it behind their parents backs).I'll give the movie a 6 because the animation was good, and I got a couple of laughs from some things in the movie.
View MoreThis is definitely a movie for Mexico. The animations are funny clips that you could download from the internet, sometimes for free sometimes for money. Due to the rising popularity it was obvious that the makers should try and make a full-length motion picture. the result was a funny story which's only goal is to entertain. Some of the jokes are impossible to understand in anything but Mexican Spanish, still it can be interesting for everyone. The animation is pretty good and you will be able to find some interesting shots as well as the blend of music and characters which are quite few. The story is not much, but all you have to do is to remember that it is just a cartoon and should enjoy bits and pieces of it and not expect Shakespeare meets dream works.
