Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Fun *** No plot - Great thing about this is that is stop motion, which is already a huge thing. Also you see stuff that you wouldn't normally see. There are so many characters from all kinds of series and movies. One big minus is that the show has no plot or well not a strong plot anyway.

SUGGESTED MPAA RATING(MINE): TV-14 for Language, sex, drugs and alcohol, violence./ TV-MA(Varies on episode). MY AGE RATING: 15+ Hit or Miss randomness. That's Robot Chicken in a nutshell. Ranging from your favorite childhood movie parodies, to Star Wars, to it's own skits, man, risqué than South Park.An amazing skit is about Bitch Pudding. Some others you should watch are, Illegal Alien Problem, Dora the X-Plorer, and the Simpsons couch gag. Others are also amazing.Some bad ones including Tarzan, "those boobs", and 50 Shades of Bags are the misses.Cross your fingers for a good one.

I've always loved the sketch comedy sub genre because of the creative freedom behind it, you can do whatever you want. Whether it's to parody on something, put a spin on a common cliché or norm, or even just something completely different all together you're allowed to go for broke. This show is both one of my favorite animated shows, TV shows but also my second favorite in the skit comedy subgenere. This is a sketch comedy show that I feel was just made for me because it's one that focuses on the pop culture that we were all familiar with when we were kids to even now; which are basically toys, video games, comics, cartoons, movies and TV show. But also just the simple fact their able to parody on things as well as do certain things that even live action parodies are unable to do. But most of all I think by it's nature it's really a love letter to the pop culture we've all known and love throughout our lives and continues on to this day.The animation effects I think are just great because they utilize stop motion which is now a lost effects practice. Some would consider this old school but that's the way I like it and I feel that adds to the funny and fun atmosphere of the show, but most importantly gives it a retro feel. The toy as well as figure models they use are great because they look real and accurate to the pop culture characters they parody. I even like the prop models they use for background which I think also look great. Cinematography is also great, I can tell they really put a lot of time and effort into making these things possible. It's also a really violent show, there are a lot of gore effects which I think are great, a lot of characters even beloved ones sometimes get killed in creative or messy ways and die. But since their all stop motion figures and these are only skits you don't feel too bad about it, in a way it just adds to the comedy.I really love the voice acting from Seth Green whom is one of my favorite voice actors, and Dan Milano. But I also like the guest voices that come in like Mark Hamell (one of my favorite actors I think is underrated and also one of my favorite voice actors), Nathan Filion, Billy Dee Williams, Michael Chiklis, and the ensemble from the live action "Scooby Doo" films (which I thought were decent) Linda Carlini, Fready Perez Jr, Mathew Lillard, Sarah Michelle Gellar, and Frank Welker. All of them really put effort into their acting roles and were all having fun.The skits are just great, it's true not every one of them are hits in my book; but sketch comedy has always been a hit or miss operation so I can't complain. Anyway there are just a lot of memorable skits which I think are creative and in a way tap into the collective fantasies we've all had whenever we watched a TV show or movie. Whether it's a character doing this, in our modern reality, if this character fought this character, just anything that may have crossed you mind.A few of my favorite are "The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" just seeing Charlie Brown do something I've been wanting him to do for years made me cheer, I'll give you a hint has to do with Lucy and a football. The traffic jam with all of the bad guys Cobra Comander, Lex Luthor, Skellator, and Mum-Ra in one car, it was both funny and sad because yeah I hate traffic jams myself. However I my favorite sketches were always the ones based on the franchises "Star Wars" and "DC Comics" which is great since I'm a big fan of both and from the amount of them on the show I can tell the creators are big fans of them as well. Runner up is "Scooby Doo" since the ensemble cast I mention has always came back and were involved with a lot of the once creates almost on each season, my favorite one was where they go against Jason Vorhees which is cool since I like the "Friday the 13th" films, the ending of the skit is just comic gold.Well I've said enough, this show is insane fun but also a testament to show pop culture will never die.Rating: 4 stars

Robot Chicken is one of THE MOST obnoxious shows I have ever had the displeasure of watching. It embarrasses me to say that I actually used to think it was cool. Seriously, this whole show looks like something my little brother would create.The crap makes use of super-cheap gags (eg: randomly killing people, using the F-bomb), retarded voices that are supposed to be HILARIOUZZ, and jokes that are just so flipping LAME, like lame as in they tried to be so funny but failed miserably (eg: The whole "TERRORISM!!" skit, that retarded green dinosaur going on about playing your PSP or whatever, THE WHOLE SHOW). This show also thinks it's hilarious just because it features popular icons such as Mario, Sonic, ALF, Thunder Cats, and Star Wars (kinda like another retarded show called Family Guy).I gave the show 3 stars instead of 1 since there were some skits I found pretty funny (The Joker in the Shankshaw Redemption parody, and the bit with Mario and Luigi going to Vice City and then watching that loser character Yoshi get eaten by zombies LOL). So there you guys go, if you want to give any 12 year olds a complete heart attack from laughing so hard, show them this atrocity that the fellow 12 year olds at "Stupid Monkey Productions" (or whatever it was called) have named...RO-BUTT CHICKEN*poop*!!! ... Hey look! I just made a joke similar to those used in Robot Chicken! Yay me! I have what it takes to be a writer for that show!
