In theory an interesting story, but SO poorly executed
14 December 2023
Warning: Spoilers
Some of the worst camera work I've ever seen. The shots were so ugly, didn't make sense, and were sometimes unnecessary. The colouring was blown out and so ugly. It looked like a bad student film.

Soundtrack was terrible too, cheesy piano riffs at the wrong time that sounded like they were downloaded from a public domain riff site.

Tons of moments where the writing just was silly or didn't make sense. Moments like how clay is totally trusting of GH and his daughter but shows no compassion to the sobbing Spanish lady in distress.

When GH goes to the beach he magically doesn't see any of the bodies or wreckage directly in front of and around him, not until after he first sees one dead person the ground at his feet.

And Amanda is so unrealistically suspicious of GH and his daughter that it's just irritating.

Encanto (2021)
Lovely music and animation, not the strongest story
27 December 2021
Warning: Spoilers
Would be much better as a Broadway Musical. Where each family member would have their own song, and more time spent with them etc. The songs were fantastic, animation and character design was beautiful. But the story was just lacking, it felt incomplete and like there wasn't a proper thread that tied everything together at the end.

There were just too many characters to fit into a single movie. It felt weird visiting one character after another with Mirabel and never really going back to them again. Eg. A song with Louisa, get to know her issues, and never really revisit her again. Same with Isabela, Bruno, Antonia, Pepa...just didn't work well for a movie.

I'd definitely watch again here or there, and some of the songs were mega catchy, but Disney has done some much stronger storylines in the past.

Kim Possible (2019 TV Movie)
I expected it to be bad but was still let down

It hurt me deeply. Kim wasn't even Kim. She's supposed to be confident, smart and fairly popular.

A girl shows up who's exactly like her and is suddenly more popular?? What??

Backcountry (I) (2014)
Painful to watch if you have any camping/wilderness knowledge

I'm shocked these characters are supposed to be Canadian. It hurt.

A treat for those who love to make fun of awful movies

If you love to watch and critique terrible moves this is another great option to add to your list. Always excited when the Asylum comes out with another masterpiece!
