Review of Peter Rabbit (2018) by Squarerayz — 23 Feb 2018
When I saw this film in theaters, I thought it was gonna be absolute garbage, like a certain animated film that Sony released a while ago, but, since I did see it in theaters, what was my reaction? Well, I thought it was... another boring and clichéd kids film.... Before I get to the bad, let’s start off with the things I did like about it.
PROS:
The acting is pretty good, especially with James Corden as Peter himself,.
Even if I’m not much of a big fan of him...
The animation on the animals are pretty decent to look at, even when they move in a bit of a cartoonish way.
There are a few scenes that did make me chuckle.
Okay, so with the positives out of the way, let’s get to the cons...
CONS:
This kind of story/plot has been used plenty (or even several) times in other kids films.
We’ve seen these old cookie cutter characters before...
And last, but not least! The overall humor of the film... I mean, seriously, it’s just Alvin and the Chipmunks and The Smurfs all over again, but at least this one did it slightly better.
FINAL SCORE/GRADE:
Overall, this film is just, again, another mediocre kids' film that has nothing interesting or unique about it, my best recommendation is to just stick with the original book by Beatrix Potter herself, or just show to your kids if you have nothing else to do to entertain them.... if you have any. (probably not).
Since it’s just another uninteresting and bland kids' film....
I’m gonna give Peter Rabbit a C-...
