Review of Ferdinand (2017) by Arth J — 28 Feb 2018

It's about time we meet again..

Ferdinand.

The animated features are supposed to attract the viewers into their new and attention seeking world and to be rich in details which helps connecting to them, unfortunately none of it is offered in here. Just a mere idea is projected by Carlos Saldanha; the director, which already was present in the original book and addition to that, it fails on delivering what was already there too. John Cena at the centre of it, is quite convincing but in here Kate McKinnon steals the show as her character is strong too along with her work. Ferdinand is a forward pass in its first act and a complete downer on its second one where all the clichéd characters and sequences jumps in that awaits and predicts the last act that even though being exhilarating (the chase scene is the only high point of the feature) couldn't charm anyone.
