Finding Jesus
I honestly would rather be hit by a train than have to watch this movie again.
Issues I had with this movie:
-the ugly animation
-the terrible lip syncing combined with genuinely probably the worst voice acting I’ve ever heard
-unrealistic dialogue, who talks like this genuinely?
-allusions to curse words?
-the character design, especially of Joy, is horrendous. She looks like a little purse chihuahua that was dropped a handful of times.
-the starfish, Mrs Wuddly, is the worst characterization of a starfish I’ve ever seen, incredibly inaccurate
-also what’s with the names? Why is the main character named Muggles?
-Professor Shark is the worst teacher figure I’ve ever seen in media. He knowingly sends children into the deep sea alone? And into possible danger?
-the reveal of Mr. Sushi one of the most horrifying things I’ve ever witnessed. And racist? For what fking reason?? Incredibly uncomfortable to watch.
-the message is a little heavy handed, I think if it was a little subtler it might be a little digestible. A metaphor, retelling, or allegory would have been a lot more persuasive than 69 minutes of “You need to love Jesus because of this cheesy and lazy lesson.”
-possibly problematic Scottish depiction?
-something about this film made me feel deeply sad and lonely
-way too long for something this bad
That being said this movie made me laugh, and had some nice scenery shots I guess.
