G-Force

There is a fine line in a comedy movie that can seperate the good and the bad. This line extends to the animated film as well, not just the typical movie that we see. The line is basically defined by the humor that we experience in the movie. In the animated movie, for example, we see good humor in a movie like Wall-E. It's very simple, it's genuine, and there isn't any gross-out or teenage humor in it. However, in a movie like G-Force the comedy seems to be centered around childish humor, which ultimately leads it to be the first negative review on this site.

The movie is about a team of secret agent animals voiced by the likes of Nicholas Cage, Penelope Cruz, Tracy Morgan, and Sam Rockwell. They are led by their human boss, Ben (played by Zach Galifianakis). The night before a big federal budget review, the crew heads to Leonard Saber's house. Saber has been under investigation by the FBI for years because they believe he is working up a horrible scheme that is set to occur in a little over 24 hours. They get the information they need, but the next day during the review when they try to convince the federal agents that they have this information, all the files that they recieved are about home electronic appliances, thus leading the team to be shut down and all the team to be seized. With the help of their human allies, the team manages to escape, but the escape falls short and they all end up in a local pet shop. Now the team has to manage to get back together again so they can stop the sinister plot that they all know is about to take place.

This movie had a little bit of a promise to be good, but in reality, it sucked. It really did. The humor in it was a little too childish to be funny. One guinea pig was playing DDR and the other one would be posting something on their facebook page. It just didn't make sense. I know that this is completely geared towards the kids but i felt like the makers of this movie were selling themselves short by making the humor this way. Overall, just a very disappointing movie.

Rating: 1.5 out of 4 stars. In theatres everywhere
