Frog Kingdom

Never before have I seen such grace, such beauty, such flawless execution as Frog Kingdom. It was as if I had achieved Nirvana, every second of viewing I was mesmerized with the stunning animation and the fantastic story telling. Princess Froglegs is a realistic and strong female lead, something which we need to see more of in modern day film. She is a strong, independent frog who doesn't need any man. Honestly, I can't understand how there could possibly be a single negative opinion on this MASTERPIECE. My only grudge is that there were not enough lines from Devo, who is clearly the best character. The voice acting was brilliant, everybody felt so real and you could hear the emotion in their voice. By far the best actor had to be Serpent. It send chills down my spine, my heart racing as he spoke of his cunning plans to wreak havoc on Frogville. Truly a perfect film for all the family too enjoy, with fantastic role models and an enthralling storyline. Perfect 10.

Everytime my 8 year old decides to watch this, I want to drill a hole into my head. The animation is "meh", clearly dubbed from its original language, and lacks imagination. The voice acting is emotionless, poorly timed, and at times feels like lines were made up for the sake of filling space. The script and story line are repetitive and utterly predictable. The plot goes on without building any secondary characters or plot interest. Everytime it's on, it feels like a 20 minute show that's been stretched into 3 hours. There's not even a morale to the story or lesson to learn. My kids don't have discriminating tastes, but I will say that most of the shows they watch at least try. This is a dumpster fire in action and I can't think of a bigger waste of time.

Super animation, but disjointed in places. Good characters, but overall lacks the fluidity of other films.

Frog Kingdom is one of those movies that wants you to focus on the dialogue, not the action. I can tell that because the lip-syncing makes me want to hurl violently. However, the animation and modeling is quite smooth and the plot isn't that bad. Another con that I have is the jokes. A drunken uncle tells better jokes than this movie does. And this movie tells them a LOT. I would look at the bright side, but I can't when the characters are saying bad puns with lips that look like a sphincter trying to squeeze out a solid brick. I got so carried away that I actually destroyed my copy of this movie (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9yrEP-6fcs). Don't buy this movie.

This movie seemed like it started in the middle. It felt abrupt to me. I watch tons of kid movies with my 2 kids, but I couldn't sit through this one. Besides the questionable acting, the sound was really strange. Maybe it's just the On Demand version from Comcast, but the voice track sounded louder than it should be and like a Prue-edited version. Like when the actors were watching it and recording their parts. The background music was very quiet so the movie seemed oddly quiet at times. It was really distracting.

The animation was fine, but I would not pay $5.99 to rent it On Demand again. My kids barely watched it too. It's rare that a straight-to- video movie is very good anyways.
