THE WILD ROBOT

One of the most memorable children's books by Peter Brown comes to life from the folks who gave you Shrek, Madagascar, and Kung Fu Panda. Time to discover what it means to be...wild.

THE WILD ROBOT
THE WILD ROBOT

THE WILD ROBOT, a movie adaptation of a bestselling book by Peter Brown, is the latest masterpiece from DreamWorks Animation. It features an all-star ensemble who lend their voices to this animated movie such as Lupita Nyong'o, The Mandalorian actor Pedro Pascal, Bill Nighy, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice's Catherine O'Hara, Kit Connor, and Stephanie Hsu.

This movie centers on the life of a robot called ROZZUM 7134, "Roz" for short, who got stranded on a mysterious island. Feared by its inhabitants, Roz began caring for a newly hatched gosling named Brightbill. She later joined forces with Fink, a calm but questionable fox with a rather selfish attitude to help nurture the gosling and mature. Struggling about her true purpose, Roz discovers the meaning of home, family, and freedom within the wilderness.

Another calm and mindful robot movie since WALL-E, THE WILD ROBOT showcases the true meaning of home, family, and freedom. The bedazzling visuals, music, and sound are easily overshadowed by the storytelling that proves even a steel-bodied mechanical wanderer can embrace its wild side. Contrary to every robot character we know, it CAN experience love.

This is by no means one of the must-watch movies of the Fall Season. With its heartwarming storytelling and stunning visuals, THE WILD ROBOT is as WILD as it gets. Nature calls.

Yumi's Cells: The Movie

After two seasons, the hit TV series Yumi's Cells made its way to the big screen as the titular cells were up against the biggest challenge of their lives to keep their host human Yumi happy.

Yumi's Cells The Movie

In the movie version of the hit TV series, Yumi decides to prepare for a contest after achieving the dream of becoming an author but she's starting to worry about the future. As the conflict between the cells intensifies, their beloved cell villages are at risk of euthanasia. It's up to Yumi to get herself back and regain her happiness.

Unlike the TV series it was based on, the movie version is focused solely on 3D animation, meaning it's basically a cartoon movie for the whole family to enjoy if they're into it. Still, even without the K-drama bits from the TV series, the movie showcased the peak of Yumi's Cells, showcasing the closure fans needed after the end of the show's second season.

Fans who've watched the rest of Yumi's Cells look no further to watch the movie version for the closure but for those who have not seen the K-drama, it looks fine. Either way, this is the peak of it. This is the Yumi's Cells everybody knows at Victory Road and it's time to give thanks to the cells that made it possible.

Kung Fu Panda 4

Po's back in his most challenging adventure ever as Kung Fu Panda returns in its 4th outing as he and his new pals are up against a faceless threat.

Kung Fu Panda 4


With Jack Black reprising his role of Po, the Dragon Warrior, Kung Fu Panda 4 sees the titular character in a much-needed break as the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace until a faceless threat called Chameleon (played by Viola Davis) plots to steal Po's Staff of Wisdom to bring back the enemies Po defeated in previous installments. With uneasy alliances with a thief named Zhen (played by Awkwafina) as well as the Bad Bunnies, Po's on a mission to stop Chameleon's sinister plot for world domination. How hard can it be?

This latest installment showcases how much Po has changed since his last adventure and the awesomeness still kicks in, meaning there's no sign of slowing Po's awesomeness down despite the thrilling action and adventure. With the quick blend of action, comedy, adventure, and moral values, this is the Kung Fu Panda adventure that exceeds expectations.

It's great to have Po back in his heroic and comedic ways. With his latest adventure finally out in the open, it's an awesome time to watch one of the best movies of the 1st quarter of 2024. Not yet springtime but who cares? Enjoy Po's most awesome adventure yet while you can.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem

COWABUNGA! The new generation of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles has arrived on the big screen and it's an all-out, butt-kicking, laugh fest as our iconic heroes in a half shell, redefined for Gen Z, kick mutant butts in the streets of NYC.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles:
Mutant Mayhem


Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem is an animated movie that features a fresh new take on the iconic cartoon heroes, featuring an all-star ensemble giving voices to familiar favorites such as Nicolas Cantu as Leo, Shamon Brown Jr, as Mikey, Micha Abbey as Donnie, Brady Noon as Raph, Jackie Chan as Master Splinter, and Ayo Edebiri as April O'Neil.

Even the rogue gallery of mutant villains got voiced by celebrities as well such as Ice Cube as Superfly, Seth Rogen as Bebop, John Cena as Rocksteady, Paul Rudd as Mondo Gecko, Rose Byrne as Leatherhead, Post Malone as Ray Fillet, Hannibal Buress as Genghis Frog, Natasia Demetriou as Wing Nut, Maya Rudolph as Cynthia Utrom, and Giancarlo Esposito as Baxter Stockman.

This new breed of TMNT delivers a double hit of butt-kicking action and an endless barrage of jokes only Gen Z kids can truly understand, especially the scene Jungkook must not watch. Yes. Jungkook, please don't watch this because... "insert BTS joke here".

It's just like the Rise of the TMNT TV show a while back in so many ways. When the butt-kicking commences, the laughter begins and with this movie, the gags go full force all the way to their finale where everything starts to unravel.

Some would call it corny, most say this is the best TMNT movie of this generation. Sure, it is a corny movie indeed but we all love corny jokes. This is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, redefined for the Gen Z youth.

Get your popcorn ready, kids.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse

Miles Morales and his web warrior pals are back in the long-awaited sequel to the hit animated movie, Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse, and this time, he's on a mission to unite the web warriors as they're facing a powerful threat.

Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse
Spider-Man: Across the Spiderverse

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse is the long-awaited sequel to the award-winning animated movie, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse, where it picks up moments after the first Spider-verse movie as Miles Morales returns for his newest adventure as Spider-Man.

In this sequel, Miles Morales is caught in a middle of a heated argument between the other web warriors as they are dealing with a powerful new threat no one's winning. Racing against time, Miles is on a mission to unite the web warriors and save the Spider-verse, whatever it takes.

Like the previous Spider-verse movie, the sequel still packs the same formula; comedy, drama, action, and moral values. The latter is what was championed the most in the first one and the sequel is no exception because this movie is all about the value of teamwork because, for the web warriors in this sequel, nobody wins if they battle alone and with the power of teamwork, superior numbers will win the day.

Because of the moral values that served as the top priority of this sequel, Across the Spider-verse is no doubt one of the must-watch movies ahead of the summer season, and those who have watched the first Spider-verse movie are looking forward to continuing Miles Morales' story in this sequel.

Trust them. The world, no, the universe needs more than one friendly neighborhood...again.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

The world of Super Mario Bros. comes to life on the big screen and no, we're not talking about the completely flawed live-action movie three decades ago. We're talking about the 3D CGI movie made in collaboration between Illumination, the animation studio behind the Despicable Me movies, and Nintendo.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie

The animated movie adaptation of the Super Mario franchise brings the world's most iconic video game to life and to please Nintendo fanatics worldwide, the movie looks just like the games themselves but with a shocking twist; the voices. This movie stars Chris Pratt as Mario, Charlie Day as Luigi, Anya Taylor-Joy as Princess Peach, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong, Keegan-Michael Key as Toad, Jack Black as Bowser, and more.

The Hollywood voice cast may have thrown a curve to the fanatics, which is a real shocker this movie delivers, but the classic Super Mario formula is alive and kicking. It hits every viewer like it collected a Starman and runs through all enemies. Cue the Starman jingle. Aside from the memorable moments this movie delivers, it packs some easter eggs that will surprise moviegoers.

Despite the use of Hollywood celebs to voice the Mario characters, this is the real movie adaptation Mario fans deserved as it behaves just like the games themselves. Cue the stage clear music.

Hello Carbot The Movie: Secret of the Suspicious Magic Gang

After wrapping up their twelfth season on the telly, Cha Tan and his Carbot pals are back to the big screen with their newest Hello Carbot adventure. It's their fourth movie!

Hello Carbot The Movie:
Secret of the Suspicious Magic Gang

Secret of the Suspicious Magic Gang is the title of the fourth Hello Carbot movie adventure and it follows the success of the previous three Hello Carbot movies with an eclectic mix of action, comedy, some tearful drama, and of course, new Carbots to summon from Cha Tan's Cube Watch.

In this latest adventure, Cha Tan and his parents are visiting a province to meet their grandparents while going out harvesting some watermelons. All that changed when Cha Tan encounters a young girl named Sam-soon while a mysterious UFO steals the watermelons and a mysterious magician was running a magic show...with a terrifying plot to take over the world!

In addition to familiar favorites such as Power Crewzer and of course, Pentastorm X (arguably the best version of the all-time best Carbot), this movie features two new Carbot friends, King Dozer and Green Farm. Which reminds us, these two should have been in the ninth season two years ago. What just happened? It's a secret but anyway, with King Dozer and Green Farm making their debut, this is Carbot adventure that saw kids and families standing up and cheering as Cha Tan and friends battle against a terrifying new threat and save the day!

Thrilling, perilous, hilarious, and tearjerking, these are some of the things kids would say after enjoying the latest Hello Carbot movie adventure and because it's one of the most successful Korean animation franchises, this movie is a definite talk in the town or talk in the classroom as expected as kids had a lot of explanation just how big and awesome this latest Hello Carbot movie adventure is. Whatever the reason, it's a big impression.

Minions: The Rise of Gru

The Minion rush is back in town as the origin saga of our ever-lovable Minions from the Despicable Me franchise continues with the secret origin of Gru, the boy who would become the world's most despicable supervillain we love to hate to hate to love. You get the point but it's here to drive families bananas. Get it? Bananas!

Minions: The Rise of Gru
Minions: The Rise of Gru

Minions: The Rise of Gru picks up where the original Minions movie left off as our favorite little yellow friends found themselves their potential master; the boy who would become the most despicable supervillain the world knows.

As fans get to know about Gru's origin story, The Rise of Gru features new kinds of Minions to love, including the Yellow Bunny Minion in one part of the film where the trio is facing a pack of beasts. Let's not forget Airline Bob as well. What? There are plenty of Minions to enjoy in this sequel, you know. There's no fighting about which one is the favorite, friends.

With hilarious Minion moments to drive them bananas, literally, this Minions sequel movie is almost as hilarious as the first one and it's an all-out cutefest that fans can't get enough of. 

If you're stressed out after a week of stress and in the mood for something cute and funny, this is the movie for you. Word of warning, though, once you watch this film, you can't get enough of the Minion rush.

The Bad Guys

DreamWorks Animation has done it again with their newest animated comedy movie that delivers a stellar all-star cast in a movie about...the bad guys.

The Bad Guys

Featuring the voices of Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Craig Robinson, Anthony Ramos, Awkwafina, Zazie Beetz, Lilly Singh, and Alex Borstein, The Bad Guys is loosely based on a Scholastic book series by Aaron Blabey. It's about a group of...you guessed it, bad guys who are good at being...BAD.

Let's admit it, we all love crooks of all kinds because this is the new normal and good is no fun at all, and this movie reflects our obsessions with all things bad and notorious. With such hilarious moments, this movie makes ODDTAXI look like Zootopia or perhaps the exact opposite of what just said but whatever, this is an animated movie about notorious animal characters doing notorious stuff by all means necessary, and good luck trying to dress like them on costume parties or comic book conventions.

Like a mix of Zootopia, ODDTAXI, and Ocean's Eleven, The Bad Guys is one of the must-watch movies of the spring movie season and despite being family-friendly, no one can escape the sharp and witty charms of these bad guys because...it's good to be bad.

Space Jam: A New Legacy

In the summer of 1996, Warner Bros. brought us the most unique team-up ever spawned; Michael Jordan and the Looney Tunes. In the original Space Jam, MJ teams up with the Looney Tunes to battle against aliens in a winner-take-all basketball match. It was an instant classic and that movie gave Michael Jordan the attention he deserved. In honor of Space Jam's 25th anniversary, the Tune Squad's back in the game and this time, a new hero enters the intergalactic basketball court.

Space Jam: A New Legacy

Call it absurd and weird but the newest Space Jam movie, called Space Jam: A New Legacy, pays tribute to the original movie while bringing this generation's GOAT to a whole new perspective. That's right. In the newest Space Jam adventure, LeBron James is chosen by the Looney Tunes to be their new basketball hero as the Tune Squad are back for another intergalactic basketball match, and this time, they're up against a more powerful alien threat where most of the basketball players Lebron and the Looney Tunes will face got juiced with alien powers. How hard can it be?

Most would say that this sequel couldn't match the charm of the original Space Jam but despite that, this film really is a homage to one of the coolest family movies of the mid-'90s. It's 25 years in the making and like the original Space Jam, the sequel movie packs all the laughs, the thrills, and a load of ACME stuff to throw at it, making this tribute movie one of the must-watch films of the summer, whether if you're at the theaters or everywhere with the HBO Max subscription alongside you.

Like it was previously said, this tribute movie can be downright absurd and weird in every way but this film really is a fitting tribute to the original. It's their way to celebrate the original Space Jam's 25th anniversary...or rather a way to make LeBron James be loved again by many in the same way that Michael Jordan did in the original. Either way, this sequel movie isn't really a sequel at all. It's a celebratory homage and you should be really thankful for this movie to hit theaters and on HBO Max.

Happy 25th anniversary, and welcome back to the Space Jam!

Disney's Frozen II

Six years ago, Disney brought the world a Thanksgiving treat for the whole family called Frozen. It's about Anna trying to overcome the odds to bring back her sister Elsa, whose icy powers enveloped her into isolation. Now, with Thanksgiving drawing near, the story of the two sisters continue in a long-awaited sequel that promises to be more magical and more enjoyable than the first one.

Disney's Frozen II
The sequel to the hit 2013 animated fantasy film made from the wonderful world of Disney continues the story of the two sisters Anna and Elsa as they are faced with a grave new threat that threatens the kingdom of Arendelle and they must explore further to save their beloved kingdom while uncovering Elsa's secret that will be the biggest plot of the film.

Like the original film, Frozen II is a spectacle of music, fantasy, and overall vibrance that delivers all the right emotions moviegoers need. With all the joy, sadness, and anger the film delivers, as well as some more Olaf mischief to cheer the moviegoers up, Frozen II is on the verge of being one of the best animated movies of the year and it really is the best Thanksgiving treat the whole family enjoyed. 

Although it's obvious to call it "cute" by movie standards, the sequel earned a lot of love and respect just as the original did six years ago and that really is the bottom line.

My rating: 4.5 out of 5.

The Angry Birds Movie 2

Pigs and birds are always at war in the world of Angry Birds but what happens when these two rival sides join forces to take on a more powerful threat that could wipe them both out? This is exactly what happens in the sequel to the movie adaptation of the hit mobile app game made by Rovio which spawned a worldwide phenomenon that made them "angry" for more Angry Birds.

The Angry Birds Movie 2
With an all-star cast like Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Danny McBride, Peter Dinklage, Bill Hader, and more, the Angry Birds Movie 2 promises to be even more angrier than the previous film and in this film, cue the Game of Thrones catchline, winter is coming as a powerful new threat emerges to destroy both the birds and the pigs' homes. Feared of losing their homes, the two mortal enemies ended up joining forces to stop this powerful new threat and save the world. Yes, that "let's save the world, you jerk" feeling when two rivals join forces to defeat a common enemy. Sounds classic.

That odd partnership between the two rival enemies surely made it the biggest Angry Birds adventure yet and it's also one of the corniest animated comedy films you would want to laugh about because with all the humor that really leaves viewers a mild pinch rather than a heavy punch just as powerful as a pack of Angry Birds crash-landing on their targets, you can slightly leave yourself a not-so-big smile when you finished watching the film. 

While some suggest that this is just another filler to occupy just another Friday on the summer movie season, there are some upsides about The Angry Birds Movie sequel as fans of the phenomenal franchise would agree and cuteness aside, the biggest of all is the clear lesson about it doesn't matter which side you're on, as long as you are working towards a common goal with your foes (whatever it means) to save the day. 

Yes, everyone knows this lesson but this sequel surely knows how to leave families and fans with an angry smile on their faces that are more angrier than they where when they first saw the first Angry Birds movie. Not quite the ideal movie to watch this summer but if you are here for some animated laughs while trying lighten yourselves up with some mild cuteness (trust me, these guys aren't cute), consider this film set.

My rating: 3.5 out of 5.

Disney's Ralph Breaks the Internet

Wreck-it-Ralph and Vanellope are back for the Thanksgiving weekend and this time, the wrecking duo are breaking through the biggest world of all; the internet. How hard can it be for the duo to crash through the information superhighway?

Disney's Ralph Breaks the Internet

Ralph Breaks the Internet, the sequel to the 2012 Disney animated film Wreck-it-Ralph, sees our favorite duo of Ralph, the villain of Fix-it-Felix, and Vanellope, the heroine of the Sugar Rush racing game, break through the internet to find a replacement part to save Sugar Rush.

These guys sure know that they're going to break more than firewalls to save the game but there's so much stuff to talk about the long-awaited sequel to the film that caters even the most discerning video game enthusiasts. Video game references aside, Ralph Breaks the Internet features so many internet references we all know about. Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, those emojis, this film had them all. There's even special cameos from Star Wars, Marvel superheroes, and Disney Princesses as well, making this film the ideal party crasher just as Vanellope crashes the Disney Princesses like a boss. Get it?

Compared to the Wreck-it-Ralph film six years ago, this sequel film still feels like the original but with so much internet references capable of wrecking our heads, this film surely wrecked our minds with joy, sadness, disgust, anger, and fear. Oh wait, that was from another film, but still, it was impressive to see all of the things viewers said about this film, creating a melting pot of what a Disney flick fit for the Thanksgiving weekend should be and above all, we really like it.

My rating: 3.9 out of 5.

Teen Titans GO! To the Movies

Teen Titans GO!, the hilarious spin-off to the DC Universe's own Teen Titans where the gang went into series of misadventures. They got stranded to the beach, going on auditions, hacking computers, avocado jokes, battle against Santa, Dance Party, road trip, Beast Boy's coming of age, they even face off against the series creators. What over-200-episode madness the Titans couldn't think of? So, when the Titans get themselves their very own movie, it's not a joke or is it? That's where the Teen Titans will find out in this hilarious movie adaptation of the hit Cartoon Network show.

Teen Titans GO! To the Movies

Yes, Robin, Starfire, Cyborg, Beast Boy, and Raven finally got their own movie about them, trying to have their own movie like every superhero in the world got, which is more of a butt-in joke if you ask them, until a ruthless supervillain manipulates them into series of unfortunate stuff and it's up to the Teen Titans to save the day...and this movie they really wish to have.

Although this is basically a hilarious satirical take on superhero films that we have every moment, this film kind of shows the error of the ways and for a Teen Titans GO fan, it's downright hilarious for a superhero movie that makes fun to the superhero movie genre. While this is downright funny because of the signature jokes the Teen Titans blow from their noses just like what they did for the past 200 episodes, some would say it can be downright boring for a superhero flick. In fact, most of the bashers think that it's too redundant for a superhero cartoon flick and a bit too childish.

Call it boring, call it meh, or whatever you may, this Teen Titans GO movie is all about what's wrong with the superhero movie genre as demonstrated by the Teen Titans themselves who finally got the movie they wished for and because of all the jokes, consider this film a laugh out loud riot that will make you going to the toilet very complicating.

My rating: 3.5 out of 5
