Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

Josephina

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Jones is a disgraced police cell, living inside Frank's body and trying to protect it from intruders. With the help of his new teammate, a pill recently swallowed by their host, they must fight against a very serious threat who plans to kill Frank in less than 48 hours.Contrary to my expectations, this movie isn't totally animated as the series it's based on, Frank and his miserable life being filmed in reality. It wouldn't have been such a big fuss if the actors weren't completely retarded and unpleasant, playing stupid roles in a very bad manner. Not to say that it was gross in a lot of such scenes...The story is as linear, expected and simplistic as it gets, so you'd think that it can provide something through its animated part...Well it doesn't. It's animation is O.K. but nothing more, voice acting is sometimes off while the action is boring and mostly predictable, when it's not too stupid to endure. Thankfully they thought to insert some good music throughout the picture, making the experience a bit more "enjoyable".Maybe I had high expectations from this movie as the series provided a pleasant view for me as a child, but except the two main characters, it didn't have anything for me to enjoy. Unfortunately, as a whole, it's a big letdown which I cannot recommend to anyone.

Osmosis Jones is a animated/live action film about a Zookeeper (and a father to one girl) named Frank(played by Bill Murray)who swallows a germ egg at the zoo after a monkey ate it and we later see a bunch of animated charcthers(inside Frank's body) one voiced by Chris Rock(Osmosis Jones)who happens to be a Policeman tries to help Frank from getting rid of the germ inside of Frank within the next 48 hours. So will Osmosis save Frank's insides in time before the virus gets deadly?I happened to have seen clips of this on Nostalgia Critic's review today and the animation looks very nice(as its in hand-drawn form which I miss as there aren't much hand-drawn films anymore. The film is like the new movie Inside Out meets Space Jam for some strange reason. The voice acting is great that are inside Frank's body(Chris Rock was good,and Lawrence Fishburne who plays the deadly virus who is a villain in this movie btw)were also great.I had to laugh that this was made by Farrelly Brothers(yup the dudes that were over my favourite comedy of all time Dumb And Dumber)but if you love animated /live action movies than check it out.

This is one of those rare gems that gets better and better with each viewing. There are so many in-jokes and subtleties packed into it, that it is impossible to get them all with just one viewing. Each repeat viewing evokes a new and unexpected chuckle or grin. Best viewed on DVD so you can pause and review what you just thought you saw. (Does that sentence make sense?) Although the Live Action parts are rough around the edges. Bill Murray is genius, as always, and the animation scenes are obviously a work of love. The one drawback is Chris Elliot, who, no matter what project he is in, brings the whole production to a crashing bore, due to his complete unlike-ability as an actor and a person.Those who "get" this film "get it", those who don't, chances are - never will.

Good Animation, Nicely Voiced and With An Interesting Story, Osmosis Jones is a mediocre unique type of a animated movie which is good for time-pass and can entertain you with its mind-boggling but unique and satirical story about the human body along with nice Voice acting by Chris Rock(who was very good) and Lawrence Fishburne and decent effort from the directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly.The Story is quite unique about the body of Frank Detorre and what takes place in his body which is full of oily and harmful junk food which he consumes on a daily basis, and how the protective cells in the human body fight to destroy the bacteria and virus's which come into the body through the food. The Main Character is Osmosis Jones(Chris Rock), who is a cop cell who always manages to run into trouble and harm Frank's body and he tries to become famous by defeating the harmful virus which wants to kill Frank with his partner Thrax(Fishburne).The Voice acting by the lead actors are very good and they have successfully synchronised their voices with their characters and helped in making the characters look very real! Chris Rock and Laurence Fishburne have done a good job along with William Shatner. They Really put in their best efforts to make their respective characters look real and the characters they've voiced for are the most entertaining of the lot. The Others have also done a decent job in giving voice of these interesting cells and virus's.The Directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly have done an okay-ish job with their crew and have done and tried their best to make this movie very good, but it has its flaws, but you have to give them credit for doing their best. They did a good job with the voicing of the characters and helping the actors blend in with their characters and have made this movie a good one for time-pass.The Story of this movie is quite unique and its a good satirical dig at what happens inside the human body and they have tried to show the importance of these protective cells in destroying the virus's and helping us keep healthy and from getting diseases. The Writer Marc Hyman has done a great job in making this uniquely good script and because of the story this movie is quite worth the watch and worth your time.The Animation team has done a great job in showing all these protective cells and them destroying the virus's and how they ''live'' inside the human body and the animation is spot on in this movie and the animation team has really done their best in giving the audience a good time with this entertaining animation and these interesting characters.Well, if your quite bored and have nothing to do, you can try and watch this movie for time-pass and you will find it quite decent with its interesting story and colourful characters, but if your looking for a serious movie, pass this.My Rating: 6.3/10
