Well Deserved Praise

Really Surprised!

Awesome Movie

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

I remember when I first saw the commercials for this I knew it was gonna SUCK! And it did, after I first saw this I instantly hated it. For one thing I hate what they did to the characters. They made them look like idiots. Like in one scene Mayor couldn't reach his pickle jar because it was on a high shelf so he calls the girls to help him. But Bubbles won't leave because she is addicted to this dance game they got at the store. So they go without her. But when the other two get to the mayor's office they discover they need Bubbles to help them get it down. WHAT?!?! How many Powerpuff girls does it take to take a pickle jar from a high shelf? Apparently according to this special, all three. And another thing that doesn't make sense is when they're forced to work for the evil side they somehow turn into these robot things. Even the way the robots are defeated is a dance off. Once again: WHAT?!?! WHY?!?! It literally feels like the characters were watered down from the original show for this special. And another thing. The animation, It's ugly, which is sad because technology has gotten better. If the original has better animation than this than that's saying something because it originally came out in the late 90s. So what I would do is give this a skip and go watch the original some more.(including the 2008 special Powerpuff Girls Rule! which should of been the last episode)

"Dance Pantsed" is a Powerpuff Girls (voiced by actresses in their 40s and 50s) short film that runs slightly over 20 minutes. The trio are up against a bad villain again and have to make sure to save the world again. It's a bit of "Charlie's Angels" with animation and the heroes considerably younger. It's also a lot worse. I have no idea what the Emmys were thinking when they awarded this one or what the Annies were thinking when they nominated it. The animation style is terrible, even if that's just perception. The action is very quick and doesn't make any sense absolutely, but not in a weirdly entertaining way, just in a completely pointless manner. What was up with the random dance sequence at the end? And the talking was really quick and impossible to understand for foreign audiences without subtitles, probably also tough to follow for American native speakers if they are still children. I love myself a good animated movie from time to time, but it's impossible to believe that grown-ups can enjoy this one. And children probably should not watch it because it is simply a crappy movie. Highly not recommended and it's shocking to see a legend like Ringo Starr in here.

The only positive thing I have to say about this is that it was nice to see some effort into bringing the Powerpuff Girls back to television, but it was a poor attempt. This special had inaccuracies in relation to the history that was mapped out in the original series. The humor is pathetic and nothing like the witty jokes I remember. Regarding the artistic style, it gives off an attitude that is unlike the original series and all that it stood for. It beautifies the girls and makes them out to be much older than they are, which is appalling, and they are written completely out of character. Rather than pay homage to the classic series we all know and love, this title goes for cheap comedy that is poorly executed. It's just white noise with all the other sub- par cartoons on television.

I really loved the Powerpuff girls, and i love all of the episodes, even the movie, the key to the city episode, and now.. this episode. Cartoon Network really messed up the whole production of this special because of Craig McCracken was not involved with this one. The continuity is especially, without a doubt, nowhere close to the original episodes, because Craig Mccracken throws in a curve-ball to change the arts. At least the special gives off a few good ideas, and a handful of exciting moments, but unfortunately, it is not enough for the girls and their professor to recover from this malicious loss in control. On the other hand, the graphics look so showgirls-esque, and only a hyper-active Fanny can squeeze any enjoyment out of Cartoon Network's latest adventure with the girls. Overall, i love the Cathy Cavadini, Tara Strong, and Elizabeth Daily, and the original voice actor's reprisals of their respected roles. Concluding my review, Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup were not too cute for me. Stick to the original episodes, even the post-movie episodes.Graphics: 1.5/10. Canon and Continuity: 0/10. Voice Acting: 10/10. Quality: 0/10. Overall: F-/
