Ok so I'm very into animation and everything and history behind studios. I went into this movie with low expectations. Blue sky was always just kind of there. My family never went to see any of their movies in theaters. It's Christmas and we went with a cute kids movie because we were seeing it with grandparents. I was blown away. Yes it is kind of a predictable plot but it has a nice spin on it. I liked the emphasis on how violence isn't always the option, and how the movie delivered it in a non cheesy way. Tom Holland and Will Smith worked great together. I laughed a lot. Animation was colorful and fluid and I was surprised how much action was in this movie. I liked how it was an original idea and not just another sequel. Walked out happy, had a great time. Fun to see with family!

Just out of cinema - my two kids and I laughed a lot.
Scenario is not very complex but it is a kid movie don't forget 😉
I find it refreshing to have a action comedy as a cartoon

A spy... who turns into a pigeon? I love it! Blue Sky Studios made excellent use of this idea with great animation, fun characters, exciting action scenes and, most importantly, the dynamic chemistry between the voice actors Will Smith and Tom Holland. These very different characters (one a suave secret agent and the other a meek inventor) interact in very engaging and funny ways. This film exceeded my expectations.

This story is pretty fun and entertaining! The visuals are colourful, the story is light and the jokes are funny. It gives you a smile on your face, both adults and children alike.
Even the voice of the Fresh Prince is charming enough to make a good movie great. Will is the man as a man turned into a bird.
Tom Holland was pretty amazing too. For those of you who love his run as Spider-Man, there is enough of that inside this character to have you loving it.
Also shout out to Ben Mendelssohn as the villain robot hand. Perfect for a 007 inspired feature. Also, very cool hearing DJ Khalid's voice coming out of a character called sound.
Then the most important part, the animation itself which was quite amazing. They did some thangs that really captured my eye and fully helped pushed a great story.
Overall, It's fantastic.

Nerdy Walter Beckett (Tom Holland) made gadgets for his hero cop mom until her sacrifice. He spends his time making non-lethal gadgets for a secret spy organization. Super spy Lance Sterling (Will Smith) is angered by one of his devices and fires him on the spot. Lance wants things that go boom. Then Lance is accused of stealing and goes on the run to clear his name. The only person who can help is the nerd he fired earlier. Walter has a new secret potion and Lance takes it before being told that it would turn him into a pigeon.
I was expecting worst but this is actually fun. Holland and Smith are a good duo. Smith is being a cartoon Smith which is the normal Smith. Holland is a nerdy kid. They're great together. Solid animation is from Blue Sky. I'm happy that the other birds don't talk but Lance can hear them. The last act does go on a bit too long. It's biggest mistake is probably the forgettable title. I'm looking straight at it and I still don't remember it. Call it James Bird. This is good for adults and probably fun for the kids.

A fun story and funny characters make this film one that the whole family can enjoy. Be prepared to learn pigeon facts!
I don't usually go watch animated movies - very rarely, but in light of the lack of new releases (at least interesting enough for me...) I decided to tag a long with the kids and watch this one... The first surprise was to see how busy the room was - on Christmas day - that was really a surprise, secondly although a very simple story, the fun is there and I kept on listening to the little ones sending some nice laughters and grown ups as well. Is definitely one with a message that spams generations but, will resonate a lot with the kids of this generation. Is fun, has a message, it's action packed and you know what, with a little more investment this one has the potential to have a part 2...

I have to admit that I wasn't really expecting much from the 2019 animated movie "Spies In Disguise", but I got to sit down and watch it with the family nonetheless.
And now having seen it, I must say that "Spies In Disguise" was quite a nice surprise of a movie. It was as enjoyable and entertaining as it was nicely made and nicely animated. It had a good story and even better characters. And the story had enough action and comedy to keep me entertained through the entire course of the movie.
As an animated movie, having a proper voice cast ensemble is a make or break, and they definitely had a good cast for this movie, and that must certainly added to the overall enjoyment of the story.
Now, the art style was a bit odd for me, given the elongated heads and very long legs, but you quickly come to accept it and take it for as is.
I mentioned the movie had good characters, but it was the animated birds that fully and wholeheartedly stole the spotlight. The bird sidekicks were so funny that you can watch the movie for them alone.
If you enjoy animated movies, then you definitely should take the time to sit down and watch "Spies In Disguise". I am rating it a solid six out of ten stars. It offers something for young and adults alike.

I am a HUGE animation fan, and I have to say this surpassed my expectations by a mile.
Funny is my favourite. That's why unlike most I didn't LOVE "How to train a Dragon". I liked it a lot and it was funny but it wasn't "Hotel Transylvania" funny.
Spies was HILARIOUS!!! I really laughed out loud many times.
The animation is beautiful and it's the only medium I'm willing to see Will Smith in.

LIKES:
Smooth Animation Style A More Unique Concept Funny Fun Good Pace Heartfelt Moments Music Creativity With Gadgets Action At The End
DISLIKES:
A Bit Over silly At Times Villain Needing A Little More Tweak Some underutilized characters The Commercial Syndrome
The VERDICT:
Spies in Disguise had a lot of delays and to be honest, the movie does not shatter too many things when it comes to originality or that unique energy Disney does. This does not mean the film is bad though, and in fact it's quite enjoyable. Animation wise it's clean, bringing a design that matches the fun nature of the film, with comedy and adventure around every bin. And though much of the movie is a blur, the film succeeds to expand to other audience members and get some character development going, that fits in theme with the creative approach to the spy thriller. It's true the balance to silliness does veer off at times, and the villain needs some of that time to really get the full effect, but for the most part the movie's biggest limitation is not having that Disney spark and giving too much away in the trailers. Still, this film feels like a good theater run thanks to the fun adventure and special effects, especially if you have a little ones or a group to go with. If not, then please check this out and enjoy the fun ride.
My scores are:
Animation/Action/Adventure: 7.5 Movie Overall: 7.0

This movie was way better than the mediocre reviews and unimpressive box office. Will Smith as always was charismatic as Lance, Tom Holland gave an endearing performance as Walter and the rest of the cast held this fun adventure together. There could easily be a sequel that would hopefully be better received. If you are looking for a fun animated adventure for the family, this is definitely worth a watch.

An intriguing concept but it's just enough to pass the time at the cinema.
The movie delivers in regards of soundtrack, voice cast and in some regards, certain animation sequences. The humour within this movie takes affect when it starts pokes fun at modern day culture and manages to pull it off swiftly. By the looks of it, the movie aims to target the likes of children and young teens and probably would give the adults just an enjoyable movie. The movie also attempts to make certain edgy jokes to appeal to an older audience but other than that, it's a movie mainly made for well children and teenagers. The main message of the movie which is anti-war is also a heartwarming one which deserves some praise.
However, besides all the initial glamour thrown at you within the first 10 minutes you would soon be immersed enough to look past it's initial facade. The movie suffers when it comes to the plot which is something we have seen over a hundred times in other movies and of course a villain that isn't just bland but one without any real motivation other than an event that has occurred in the past which doesn't really hit you as the villain is indeed a boring one.
As a whole, I found myself enjoying the movie but with the given voice cast, the movie could've done a lot more. But then again, I'm not really the target audience of the movie so maybe you will enjoy the movie more than I do.

This movie's whole story is obvious from the beginning, yet I am so happy that we chose it for family movie night. I laughed so loud. The comedy was enough for me to ignore the weak story line, and we enjoyed it very much.

I was skeptical about this show at first, but it exceeded all my expectations indeed. I rarely laugh on any kind of show (old man like me in his mid 30's has watched hundreds of movies in his life, so I no longer enjoy any movie), but however, I died laughing when watching Spies in Disguise! ideas were brilliant and enjoyable, the graphics and animation also were so amazing. and I don't know why it was rated below 7!
You can't compare it with Pixar's films but you and esspecially your kids wil have fun.Afterall it's an animation movie.Sit back,relax and enjoy as Will Smith who has the fun of his life providing the voice.
Will Smith and Tom Holland are so great together! I really enjoy Spy movies even better mixed with science. Such a glorious adventure story about trying to catch a master villain played by Ben Mendelssohn which is an awesome actor! The animation design is beautiful, just about everything is great; I don't really have complaints.

Will Smith delivers his lines with all the humor you'd expect. Tom Holland is fun as the idealistic gadget guy, "Glitter makes people happy." The animation is good; very cartoon-y. (Not sure why they made Smith's character half chin.) The story is goofy, with lots of bathroom humor that little kids will enjoy. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot for the adults to also enjoy. The story is a bit long and the plot is questionable, even for a cartoon. There are two strong & funny female characters, which was fun to see. Overall, fun for young kids but otherwise wait for PPV or DVD.
