William Christensen

This movie was great! I watched it with a couple friends and it was fantastic! It wasn't better than the other 3 before it though. If I'm being completely honest, I don't think that the villain role (Maxime Le Mal) wasn't fit for Will Ferrell. Don't get me wrong, I love Will Farrell and all the movies he's done. He is an AMAZING actor in my opinion, but it just didn't fit his character. It was also random that the villain was cockroach-themed but hey, there's been weirder in the series. I think Steve Carell did yet again an amazing job as well as Kristen Wiig and the three voice actors for the three girls. Great idea to bring an actual child of Gru's into the franchise but for some reason the girls proceed to never age (Which is a bit odd). The entire "Country-club" aesthetic felt odd but cool at the same time. The ending boss-fight was the weakest out of all 4 movies, however the ending brings back a bunch of old faces which is really cool and "nostalgic" in a way. Great movie and would definitely watch this movie again.

Overall, the movie was OK. Wasn't worth going to theatres for, however great movie to watch if you waited until it released on streaming services. The acting was alright, but the voice acting was better (With all the IF's). There were lots of times where it felt like I was watching what should've been a blooper or deleted scene. There was also a few times where the CGI just felt like it gave up. The movie had a decent plot with a great message behind it, they just didn't play it out super well. I think having Steve Carell & John Krasinski were a perfect choice but Ryan Reynolds felt like a weirder choice but he did fantastic. Definitely worth for a family movie night but not sure if I'd watch it again in my spare time.

For being a movie that released 9 years later, it was surprisingly good. When I went into the theatres, I didn't expect more than to have a fun time watching the movie. However, I was surprised by how well they played off a bunch of new things such as the new emotions, new thing called beliefs, and how the main 5 would just get rid of bad memories. It had a decent plot, Riley tries to get onto the High School Hockey Team and the new emotions (Mainly Anxiety) tried to guide her whilst the main 5 tried to get back to headquarters. Although it was a good movie, it came with a bunch of bad things about it. The biggest thing being, they took everything from the first movie and threw it out the window. No new islands, for some reason they refixed the control console even though they fixed it a year ago in their time (Although it was because of puberty), and forgot the fact that they stated there was only 5 main emotions. Would recommend to go see it though, if you and your family are bored.

This movie wasn't the greatest ever but definetly not the worst. ----------------‐-----Spoiler Warning------------------- I feel as if this movie is a good way to hopefully be the end of the Kung Fu Panda series as I see no other way the story could continue forward without it being bad. Storyline: The movie is about how Po must move on from being the Dragon Warrior and choose a new succesor. However, Po obviously doesn't want to give the gig up. The theme of the movie is all about how no one wants to change but they have to anyways. The antagonist "The Chameleon", is a good villian but has the worst backstory of the other 3 from previous movies (I prefer Tai Lung out of all). The jokes in it were funny but also felt rushed and repeated the entire runthrough. Also, it would've been 10 times better if Dreamworks had included the rest of the Kung Fu team as they were apparently "Doing other important things." They also almost ruined a very cool part of the KFP franchise which is when Po says "Skadoosh" as when Po's succesor does his famous move, she says "Shablam" instead of "Skadoosh" but Po stepped in and said it immediately after (I know it sounds nitpicky but to me its important). Overall this movie is one for families and animation lovers.
