    A movie to shut your two year old up
    I was forced to see this movie and to put it simply, its a movie to shut the kids up. I laughed at none of the jokes, and found the Brony jokes really unnecessary. I do not think paying a copyright bill was worth it fore those jokes. But i can't blame the movie because its a kids movie. I guess i'm sour because i waisted about two hours (Or what it felt like) of my life watching a bland kids movie. I'm not saying its bad, but boring. So if you're watching it and your a adult take your two year old or someone young so you see someone having a good time.
