Rise of the Animals

Okay I gave it a 2 because it got me fooled. And I laughed! But not from the comedy. I laughed at how horrible this movie was made. Perhaps they intended this to be so stupid and faulty to entertain us. 30-40 seconds into the movie you will see what I mean. There was this spotted cat going berserk in a kitchen, lady holding a frying pan in fear. The cat suddenly jumps on her, and wham! She hits the cat (that looked like an all white teddy bear) that slams into the sink. Couldn't they just have tried to paint the stuffed thing with black spots to look like it was the cat? I can do better special effects and props in my backyard without breaking a sweat. So maybe I'm missing out on something about modern comedy. It's an adventure. The adventure of your lifetime getting ripped off on this foolish story. Horror. Oh the horrors of films made like this. I thought movies made in the Philippines were utterly horrible. Great work guys. You actually made Philippine movies look better. If you got nothing else on a Saturday night, and are prepared for the worse entertainment in the history of film making, suspend disbelief and just drink till your eyes get sucked in your skull and can't finish the movie? Then this is one of those movies out there just for you. Oh yeah, there are more of this I can assure you.

Rise of the Animals (2011)

I could not stop laughing though out this movie, not cause the jokes were funny but the movie is self was so awful, on so many levels , it was Hilariousness bad.

It was very bloody and there lots of bloody moments in this. Which is a good thing.

The rest of the movie was just......

The animals attack were so bad, they are stuffed up animals, attacking people.

If not stuffed up , there are some really bad effects, it's had to be some of the worst effects, I have ever seen.

which make this movie even more laughable.

The acting is really horrendous from every one.

I swear, I don't know what to rate this, 1 out of 10 for being one of the worst movies ever or 10 out of 10, for been one the funniest movies I've seen.

Rise of the Animals is 2011's crowning achievement. From it's big budget CGI that could rival James Cameron's "Avatar" to it's compelling acting, no greater found even in "There Will Be Blood". RotA is a flawless cinematic masterpiece. This instant classic cult film, started off really strong and controversial. I'd go as far as to say, you will not see it coming. the acting may be sub par, but that is where this movie shines the most. from quirky characters, to methed out lovers, the cast really captures it all. My favorite part was the climax and also the resolution at the same time. What other film does that? To have such important story telling elements happen at the same time... why is this movie not presented in film schools? By the end of the film, you will feel your heart racing as you quickly search the room with your eyes wondering where the closest animal is. Don't just watch this movie.. study it, breathe it, and don't forget... rise of the animals.

Greg, if you're working on any other big projects like this- I know a few people that would be interested.

Virginal pizza delivery boy Wolf (Greg Hoople) and his equally inexperienced best bud Jake (Adam Schonberg) crash an all-girl sleepover party where both guys finally get lucky. Their good fortune is short-lived, however, when it transpires that the world is under attack from the animal kingdom, with even the most cute and cuddly of critters now bloodthirsty beasts.

Rise Of The Animals is an intentionally inept 'animals attack' flick that aims to entertain with a barrage of deliberately pathetic special effects, a preposterous script, and terrible performances. And for a while its actually quite fun, the animal attacks achieved through the use of Birdemic-level CGI and manky hand puppets, with buckets of blood splashed around for good measure. It's all so dumb one cannot help to be entertained. For a while.

Sadly, as the story goes nowhere, delivering one silly attack scene after another (including mutant turtles, a crap CGI gorilla with a red mohawk and an equally unconvincing bear), the novelty gradually starts to wear off, and, by the end of the film, you might find yourself wondering why you keep on wasting your time watching cheap rubbish like this when there are so many other films more worthy of your time. I know I do. Every time. But I keep on coming back for more

This movie has some unforgettable moments in it that makes it so memorable. I won't spoil anything but some of the scenes were so hilarious I will always keep thinking about it. Also a plus for their effects, they did the best what they could :-). The only thing that could've been bit better were some of story parts. During the middle of the film it became a bit boring and some parts were totally illogical but of course you can live with it because of the comedy part.

It might have been even better if they explained the cause why they started attacking humans but of course that adds more mystery to the movie.

I would give it a 7.5!
