Un Noël façon Bad Guys

The Bad Guys movie was really enjoyable and charming, plus the beautiful animation but what happens if you take the fun heist antics of the bad guys and take away the great animation? Your left with what feels like the cutscenes of a 2000s licensed bad guys video game.

The holiday special itself is a basic but enjoyable time that still has those characters and the heist fun that came from the original film. I do think that the limited animation definitely hinders the special as the original film had a unique and fun visual style that they try to emulate in this special, for the most part all the character designs do look good and match the films style but the rigid movement and somewhat choppy animation makes it a bit disappointing as a follow up/prequel to the movie. I do think this was do to the special having a lower budget which is something out of the control of the animators.

Overall I think it's a fine enough special that kids and adults can get some enjoyment out of during the holiday season, but not an instant classic like Charlie Brown or Garfield's Christmas specials.

So, I just watched the new Bad Guys holiday special on Netflix, and I thought it was alright. Nothing groundbreaking or anything, but it's a solid holiday special. Here's my thoughts on it.

So first off, the animation. The animation is worse than the movie, but that's to be expected since the movie was an feature length movie released in cinemas, and this is a 25 minute special released for Netflix, but the animation is still decent. It's a bit more stiff, but it gets the job done without being too distracting.

Next up, the actors. So another thing changed was that all the actors were replaced for this one, which also makes since considering this was made on a much lower budget than the movie, so it makes sense they can't afford all those actors back for this, so do the new actors do a good job? Meh, they're alright, but they don't carry the same charm as the movie actors. Mr. Wolf is alright, but everyone else just don't carry the same charm.

Finally, the story. I don't really have much to say on the story, it was alright. Basically the whole story revolves around The Bad Guys having to save Christmas so they can pull off their big holiday heist, not the most groundbreaking thought provoking story ever but it is still fun to watch.

In conclusion, The Bad Guys: A Very Bad Holiday is a short but sweet holiday special. It has a simple but fun story, but falls a bit flat in terms of the animation and voice acting. Overall, I'd give it a 6/10 thanks for reading!

The Bad Guys : A very Bad Holiday (2023)

The Bad guys movie is one of the Best movies by dreamworks , it made dreamworks even better , the animation style the character design the story that took from the book the movie was So Good

Now after the movie came two shorts one titled The Maraschino Ruby which was Really good .

And the other one is this one , and its kinda alright it delivers what promised but the animation style is kinda on a low budget which is understandable and i respect that they still gave us the movie with the budget cost

The story of it is great too and some scenes are well made , some jokes even landed which is good too Overall this Short is sweet and worth your time IF you loved The Bad Guys Movie.

Not sure why they bothered with this. Completely different voices, very sub par animation, just a b-grade budget version of the original.

Why not just make a completely different one with different characters if it's going to have nothing whatsoever to do with the original?

The story felt obvious and lazy. My child, who loves the first one, was unimpressed and asked to watch something else half way through.

I don't know if they just made this to keep the characters fresh in our minds before the second movie comes out, but if so it was a massive mistake. It just lowers the overall quality of the franchise.

I had a really a good hope for this movie. I was so happy to see the characters i loved in the original movie. Yes they are in this one too, but the cast is different. That pluss bad animation made me so disappointed. The movie doesn't have the same feel and vibes like the original movie. The story is ok, and there was some good laughs. But since i was a fan of the original cast, and was hopeful to see theme again. I was shocked when i noticed that the cast was changed.

Yhe movie might be good xmas movie for the kids and adults that don't care for who's i the cast.

I really hope that if there is an number 2 movie in the making, that they do use the original cast.and better animators.
