Review of Sing (2016) by Freedomfighters — 27 Mar 2018
Illumination Entertainment has made a number of films I definitely enjoyed, such as the "Despicable Me" series, and considering that I enjoyed "The Secret Life of Pets" despite initially thinking it would be terrible and dubbing it as just "Toy Story with pets," I was very excited to see where "Sing" would take me.
Ultimately, "Sing" wasn't a huge leap forward from "The Secret Life of Pets" thanks to its slightly all-over-the-place story, the somewhat unlikeable protagonist, and the fact that Illumination's trademark humor isn't really on display here.
However, I'd be lying if I didn't say that "Sing" had some beautiful animation, great music, solid vocal performances, heartwarming moments, and other charming characters that helped keep it afloat.
Sure, it's a flawed film, and it won't rank as one of Illumination's best, but "Sing" is still an enjoyable entry in the company's filmography, and it's definitely worth giving a shot.
