SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
View MoreA film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
View MoreNever before have I seen such grace, such beauty, such flawless execution as Frog Kingdom. It was as if I had achieved Nirvana, every second of viewing I was mesmerized with the stunning animation and the fantastic story telling. Princess Froglegs is a realistic and strong female lead, something which we need to see more of in modern day film. She is a strong, independent frog who doesn't need any man. Honestly, I can't understand how there could possibly be a single negative opinion on this MASTERPIECE. My only grudge is that there were not enough lines from Devo, who is clearly the best character. The voice acting was brilliant, everybody felt so real and you could hear the emotion in their voice. By far the best actor had to be Serpent. It send chills down my spine, my heart racing as he spoke of his cunning plans to wreak havoc on Frogville. Truly a perfect film for all the family too enjoy, with fantastic role models and an enthralling storyline. Perfect 10.
View MoreThis is a bad film. The characters and story are very poorly developed even for a kids film. There is quite a lot of needless arguing and fighting between the friends in the film which really sets a poor example for small children and made the relationships seem very strange between the characters.The animation doesn't add to the experience and there are a number of times when the movement of characters looks very unnatural. Mouth movements look like the film was probably made for the Chinese market and simply dubbed into English.Probably the worst thing about the movie is some cringe worthy dialogue and action, which for a small kids film is often inappropriate. This includes one overweight female character being called a "chubbo" and another character asking one "Are you tripping?". There is also a scene where a male character marches in 3 girls hitting them with a bar to keep them in line. This ain't Toy Story. Do your kids a favour and give it a miss.
View MoreFrog Kingdom is one of those movies that wants you to focus on the dialogue, not the action. I can tell that because the lip-syncing makes me want to hurl violently. However, the animation and modeling is quite smooth and the plot isn't that bad. Another con that I have is the jokes. A drunken uncle tells better jokes than this movie does. And this movie tells them a LOT. I would look at the bright side, but I can't when the characters are saying bad puns with lips that look like a sphincter trying to squeeze out a solid brick. I got so carried away that I actually destroyed my copy of this movie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9yrEP-6fcs). Don't buy this movie.
View MoreThe design and animation looked quite good at first, but then the voice acting is just so bad that it's had to concentrate on anything without cringing. It's like they hired amateurs, you can feel they are reading their text without even looking at the screen, worse, they all sound bored. Like, "I don't care what I'm doing, all I want is the money, let it end as soon as possible." Just another detail: as it deals with frogs in a watery scenery probably, I have been focusing on how the water is rendered from the very beginning, and that very first scene alone was screaming: "We're doing the minimum we can for it to look decent." A total waste of time would be my conclusion.
