After seeing Double Toasted review this, I let my morbid curiosity get the best of me and decided to check it out. Not only is this very poorly made but yawn inducingly boring.
The graphics look woefully bad and out of date like they came from a video game engine created about twenty years prior. There are obviously copied and pasted objects everywhere such as pine trees, bushes, and animals. The animation is extremely limited and sluggish, the lip syncing is horrible, and the camera and characters frequently clip through the trees and plants.
The character models look as crummy and outdated as the scenery. Acela and the kids in particular look downright creepy with their oversized heads and bulging, unblinking eyes that are set too far apart. Acela even seemed like a killer doll in a horror movie whenever she giggled! Kids would have been scared of this.
The story is completely dull and slow-paced. Half the movie consists of the characters just going on long boring walks at a snail's pace with no music and little to no ambient sound. Other times, they just stumble around aimlessly like they're on drugs.
The voice acting is totally stale sounding, as if the so-called actors are half-asleep or simply don't want to be there. The dialogue is awkward and repetitive sounding, especially the kids dialogue.
The only highlight was the alien with his admittingly good dance moves. That's the only reason I gave this 2 stars instead of 1. Other than that, there's no other redeeming qualities here at all.
This was as bad as "The Asylums" worst animated films. So, for God's sake, don't let your kids watch this unless you want to lobotomize them and yourselves, because I could only bear to watch about twenty minutes of it before I felt my brain cells begin to die from how shoddy and boring it was.
