Hitpig!

I can't really deside if it was my screening copy that was faulty.

Or if this film is released with an almost complete lack of folie audio.

The audiotrack seemed miss a whole portion of folie artistry. The voiceactors, the music track are present. But only 10% of audio special effect was present. Some folie audio track. But as if a folie department made the bare minimum of atmospheric audio.

Outdoor scenes, for example in the street, totally lacked any noises of a street enviroment. Only dialog, music track and a few folie sound effects. For example: as if a door closes. Or a car starts. But nothing else. Just flat and silent.

The animation isn't horrible. The story and general plot is okay. The voiceactors does their job. But either the mixing departement forgot to included most of the folie audio tracks. OR! My copy is a early edit.

First time for everything I guess.

While there are fart jokes, the fart jokes are woven into the plot. Which maybe sounds bad lol. It does have a better than average sense of humor though. Probably because the jokes often relate to characters rather than just put in randomly.

I enjoyed the chaotic, almost fever dream quality of the story. It helps the movie strike a good balance between lighthearted cartoon and heavier concepts like animals being mistreated. A lot of modern films are too serious, this isn't. Yet there is enough meat on the bones to care about the characters.

The biggest flaw of the movie is a very generic villain. At least his goal is fairly unique. He's also not the main focus. The heroes are much better.

This movie was a complete disappointment. From start to finish, it was packed with cringe-worthy one-liners and forced humor that just didn't land. The characters felt hollow, with no personality beyond ignorance and shallow stereotypes, making it impossible to connect with them in any meaningful way.

I brought my five-year-old, hoping for a fun family experience, but within 30-35 minutes, she turned to me and asked to leave because, in her words, "this movie is taking too long." When even a young child can't stay interested, you know there's a problem. I've sat through some rough movies before without walking out, but this one really tested my patience.

Honestly, I don't understand how there could be any positive reviews out there. This movie was so disappointing that I felt compelled to warn others, even though I usually don't bother with reviews. I spent $17 on two tickets and another $19 on tea and popcorn, and I genuinely regret it. Save your time and money-this one just isn't worth it.

Hitpig is a delightful animated film that effortlessly blends humor, heart, and stunning animation. The voice acting is top-notch, bringing each character to life with personality and charm. The humor is both clever and silly, appealing to both kids and adults.

While the animation may not quite reach Pixar's level of detail, it's still incredibly impressive, with vibrant colors and fluid movement. If you're a fan of animal-themed films and enjoy a good laugh, Hitpig is a must-watch. It's a heartwarming and hilarious experience that will leave you smiling.

Whether you're a child or an adult, Hitpig offers a fun and engaging experience that will stay with you after the credits roll.

A new animated movie has snuck into theaters called HITPIG!. Based on a children's book called Pete and Pickles by Berkeley Breathed, This is a story about Hitpig (Jason Sudeikis), a pig bounty hunter who returns escaped animals to their owners. Right off the bat, the title doesn't make sense, the pig doesn't kill anybody like a hitman. It probably should be called something like PETE THE BOUNTY HUNTER or just PETE AND PICKLES. He's literally named Hitpig. Moving on, he meets Pickles (Lilly Singh) the elephant who escaped from deviously arrogant Leapin' Lord of the Leotard (Rainn Wilson). They form a bond that makes Hitpig question his career and life. This movie is fine. I understand it wasn't made with me in mind. The humour is all over the place, sometimes aimed lower for kids, sometimes aimed a smidge higher. Lotta butt jokes. The story moves a mile a minute, sometimes literally, not letting you breathe. The characters are all talking fast, I did enjoy hearing Hannah Gadsby as a sassy koala though. The movie looks low budget, and I'm actually surprised it made it to the theater. There are a couple of good enough scenes about the family you choose. HITPIG! Is a fine movie I guess, but instantly forgettable and not worth spending money on, unless you have a young kid with ADHD who loves loud noises and bright colours.
