Debunkers, Inc.

"Debunkers, Inc" is very family friendly. The thought that kept coming to mind was that - this film reminds me of the Saturday series 'The Inspectors' about college kids interning for the Inspector General's office of the Postal Service- or something like that. Only in style, campiness and very soft drama. Only with "Debunkers, Inc" there is a direct link to the Scooby Doo concept.

The story and overall intend is a cute, simple adventure mystery with an element of paranormal activity which sets up this group of high schoolers for a chance to show their skills. It's murder mystery in a very benign way, There is no violence and the film never gets anywhere close to thriller territory. It is all mid-morning weekend i/e approved.

The acting is disjointed and a bit too theatrical, which if the whole concept would have been to go camp, would have been okay. But the supporting cast and a lot of the situational stuff stays bland and straight which creates a clunky, disenchantment air that causes the entertainment value to struggle to take off. Overall "Debunkers, Inc" is only going to appeal to a small, select audience. Like I said, that weekend mid-morning kiddie crowd. Unfortunately though, the movie never reaches it's inspired target as Scooby approved.

In the dimly lit catacomb of cinematic despair that is "Debunkers Inc.," I find myself compelled to unleash a torrent of fury and disillusionment. My son, an unsuspecting student at Cathedral Catholic High School, was lured into the abyss of this cinematic atrocity by the misguided recommendation of a friend who, in turn, had the misfortune of witnessing this calamity unfold in the film class presided over by the dubious maestro of incompetence, Ryan Andrews.

"Debunkers Inc.," a film produced and acted in by Mr. Andrews himself, stands as a monument to the unforgivable sins committed against the art of storytelling and the sanctity of education. How dare my son's friend, ostensibly an ally in the pursuit of cinematic enlightenment, endorse such a travesty? How dare Ryan Andrews, under the guise of education, subject young minds to this carnival of ineptitude?

The plot-or what masquerades as such-of "Debunkers Inc." is a tapestry of inanity and confusion, a narrative train wreck careening off the tracks of coherence. The characters, mere hollow shells draped in the illusion of personality, stumble through scenes with all the grace of marionettes manipulated by an inebriated puppeteer. One wonders whether the script, if a script even existed, was an afterthought in the fevered dream of someone with a tenuous grasp on reality.

And then there are the performances, a cacophony of cringe-inducing overacting orchestrated by none other than the architect of this disaster, Ryan Andrews. It is a performance so ham-fisted, so bereft of subtlety or skill, that I cannot fathom how this man continues to hold a position as an educator. The supporting cast, if one can generously apply that term, stumbled through their lines like sleep-deprived zombies in a low-budget horror flick.

The visual assault that is "Debunkers Inc." serves as a stark reminder that the art of cinematography can be reduced to a nauseating display of shaky handheld shots and inept framing. It is as if Mr. Andrews handed the camera to an amateur with a penchant for cinematic chaos, leading to a visual experience akin to watching a blender mishandle a delicate soufflé.

My son, a victim of cinematic misguidance, was ensnared in the clutches of this abomination due to the ill-advised counsel of a friend who, one can only assume, fell prey to the same cinematic Stockholm Syndrome. The fact that such a film is presented as educational material in a high school film class is an affront to the very concept of learning through the medium of film.

In conclusion, my fellow film enthusiasts, I implore you to shield yourselves from the excruciating agony that is "Debunkers Inc." It is not merely a film; it is an insult to the intellect, a mockery of artistic integrity, and a betrayal of the trust placed in educators to nurture the minds of the next generation. May Ryan Andrews reflect upon the monstrosity he has unleashed upon impressionable minds and reconsider his role in the realm of education and filmmaking. May future generations be spared the torment of enduring such a cinematic calamity under the guise of education.

Randomly saw this on Showtime the other day and really loved it. It's a kids movie but it's still fun for adults and there's some real passion on screen. Well worth a watch!

I had a lot of fun watching this movie. The description literally says that it's goofy high-school detectives-- you have to understand that it's going to be silly. Each character was individually charming and well-written, the movie was well-directed, and everyone who was a part of that project is incredibly talented. Give it a watch and don't listen to that unnecessarily scathing reviewer!

Also, the actor who plays Link is real cute. Just saying.

All of these reviews are just previous students of one of the characters and are taking out their anger of probably getting a bad grade in his class because they probably sucked by leaving bad review. But I generally enjoyed the movie and cannot wait to watch it gain on Showtime!!!!!
