#ifmovie #moviereview #review In today's video, I breakdown the latest kids movie to hit theaters in 2024 -- 'IF' -- starring Ryan Reynolds, Cailey Flemming, Steve Carell, and John Krasinski. Enjoy :)
so its a kids film, then why is the cast so stacked? kids dont care about who is voicing and playing roles just as long as the characters and their personalities are entertaining
The “it’s for kids argument” is so dumb and disrespectful to kids. What about old Pixar movies? Toy Story, Incredibles, Up, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Finding Nemo, Monsters inc, all these are masterpieces of art enjoyed just as much by adults because they are smart films and don’t assume kids to just be “dumb kids, whatever”. Same for many Dreamworks and other animated films, just using those as examples. It being for kids is not an excuse to just be bad…
@@Stark-Cinema I said when I saw both trailers, this movie looks really stupid, every attempt at humor in the trailer is very cringe but people can’t judge it for what it is, they just see “Ryan Reynolds, Steve Carell, those guys are hilarious, whatever it is must be funny no matter what they’re saying, these are all funny people, what they say = funny” and everyone saying “oh this looks so original!” WHAT? It’s literally Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends, they even copied the name of the main friend. Then it 100% is trying to be some sort of mesh of Toy Story, Monsters Inc, Inside Out and Up like you mentioned. Also saw people saying “wow, that’s so unique how they have animated characters interacting with live action!” I think I can name 50 movies off the top of my head that have done this lol. And they promote it being written and directed by John Krasinksi like it’s this amazing auteur. I liked his work on the Quiet Place movies, this was just a misfire I also predicted Ryan Reynolds being an imaginary friend from the teaser
If they wanted to make an imaginary friend movie, why didnt they try a live action Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends? They still would have ruined it, but they probably would have gotten more attention and sold more tickets.
i worked on this movie and it gave me some of the more stressful situations of my life especially that crossciant scene and coney island..glad it didn't matter at the end of the day hahaha
I’m sorry to hear that. I’m sorry I didn’t like the movie but I refuse to back down on criticism even though people worked hard on it. I’ve worked hard at many places that received poor reviews that were outside of my control, so it happens. Hopefully you have a great day and continue working on movies ❤️
If you guys want a TV show about imaginary friends, watch Happy! It’s all about imaginary friends but they are nuts and it follows a NY Detective turned alcoholic and drug addicted hitman, it’s fuckin’ great.
I remember watching a video highlighting the period where ‘big names’ started featuring as voice actors in movies and that became more of a marketing ploy than actually adding any substance. Likely off the back of ‘Robin Williams’ as the genie & coming into the pixar era.
I felt like the scene with the IF and the fat guy was meant to be interpreted as like the imaginary friend loving their kid no matter what they look like when they grow up. They could’ve not made him comment about his appearance, but they couldn’t have made someone the audience is supposed to empathise with say “oh, you got fat” when they see someone for the first time in years. At least that’s my charitable interpretation.
Bruh, I'm an overweight girlie. Do they think I HAVEN'T tried pastries to heal my inner child?? Why do they think I'm fat?? 😭😭😭 Kidding... Kinda. Great video! Thanks for watching it so we didn't have to ❤
I watched the movie yesterday ,it was okay .It was slow at the beginning but it had some touching moments towards the end.But there were some moments I felt like it’s missing something
