Too much of everything

Plenty to Like, Plenty to Dislike

Must See Movie...

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Wow... Just... WOW! I've never seen an Icelandic production this awesome. I admit that it's for kids, but there's a lot of stuff for even adults to enjoy as well. In fact, it's so good, that it managed to cut the obesity rate of Iceland, and increase the fruit intake rate by about 15%. Unlike these pandering smuts like Toopy and Binoo which says: "I LUV EATING TREES", LazyTown shows their own way of teaching via actions, and they also have clever wordplay, like Sports Candy, also known as fruit. The actors of Stephanie and Sportacus are really talented in aerobics, and the one that steals the show for me is Robbie Rotten, with his crazy antics and disguises. In fact, when his actor had pancreatic cancer, endless memes paying homage to him boomed in the internet, which means that this show's success is incredibly high. The creator, writer and star, Magnus Scheving, felt that there wasn't much sports role models around the world, so he decided to turn himself into the ever lovely sports hero, Sportacus. This show is so full of charisma and awesome actions, that it leaves me saying: "More of this for the kids please. Less of... that (Teletubbies and Toopy and Binoo) please."

Words cannot express the emotions I have towards the Oscar deserving television program Lazy Town. Set in the fictional village, Lazy Town, relationships are challenged and hearts are broken as the devilish romance between Robbie Leanne Rotten, Sportacus the Grand and young Stephanie brews. The use of symbolism throughout the program in the form of Robbie plotting to increase laziness expertly highlights the troubles in our own lives, including perverted love. Despite Sportacus only being shown as a superhero, his lust towards Stephanie shows that he is more than a superhero and he is a man, with real human feelings and desires.

OK, so why the heck is this sporticus guy running around doing flips like a monkey every damn second? Quite distracting if you ask me but then again there isn't much story to be had anyway.Very cheesy, not the greatest acting on the part of Sporticus who i will give credit only for being an athlete. The other 2 characters are more interesting.I gave it 2 stars for those other actor's contributions and because of the healthy message for kids, but sheesh they need a half decent actor who is YOUNGER to play Sporticus.Someone with a bit of charm who doesn't take himself as seriously but who you can take more seriously OK, figure that one out ;)

I thoroughly dislike shows like these. In the end it is little more then propaganda aimed at the youngest among us, and downright insulting towards the intelligence of children.Furthermore it encourages a negative way of thinking towards people who aren't sportive and people who have weight problems. It generates the idea that if you don't like sport ( or simply aren't good at it), and if you are overweight, that there is something wrong with you. There is nothing wrong with a child that enjoys eating candy, there is nothing wrong with a child who likes to sit down and play a computer game.It is bad enough so many adults obsess about the shape their body is in, and how much they weigh, do we really need to imprint these negative ways of thinking on our little children?
