Hello there random stranger how are ya? So, I may have gone a bit too harsh on this one (lol). This was supposed to be uploaded last month but I had some personal stuff that pretty much took up all my free time to edit. Also, sorry I haven't uploaded in a while! Just finished moving into a new place and now I'm finally settled in! Anyways I hope you enjoyed your stay! Have a great day and a great life!
The opening skit is way too accurate. I didn't think DreamWorks would actually come back to the movie industry. But it looks like they did. And with a vengance.
Gotta respect the gamble they took making the animation as slick as it was instead of going with clean traditional cgi. Also enjoy a parody heist movie every now and again, especially one as fun as this one.
It actually does makes a lot of sense for Diane to be working with Marmalade. She basically dares the bad guys to steal the statue then agrees for Marmalade to "change" them then pushes Wolf to be the good guy. I wouldn't be shocked if she was supposed to be a twist villain but Dreamworks just scrapped it.
@@brandonlomunts8246 I mean he just lists reasons why Diane could've been a twist villain, and it seems illogical that with all this evidence it seems weird that Diane isn't a twist villain, too.
@@bobthebacon3163 but still though, Diane as the villain jut really doesn't work either but there was an interview the professor was supposed to be an alien in disguise but they think its best for saving all that in the sequel (if that happens) so yeah that should've what this guys says what DreamWorks scrapped, not diane being being a twist villain LOL.
ngl I really liked this movie, it's one of those movies where I'm just happy to see the characters interacting in a simple plot. but the name things does bother me 😂 wolf even had the fake name "oliver poodleton" at one point... so all their parents really just... gave up in the name department lmao
Yeah true, but anthropomorphic animals having surnames that's basically their species is super common in fiction. It's funny tho because it makes me think of a guy named Henry Human lel
@@ThePrincessCH Eh. We don't know that for sure. A lot of the stuff he has done could have very easily gotten many people killed. Plus when he first found out Metroman was dead its not like he was remorseful. He genuinely thought he killed Metroman. Plus 85 life sentences? Thats like the equivelent of around 8500 years in jail. Even some of the most evil mass murders in real life haven't gotten that kind of sentence. Even if all he did was cause property damage and steal stuff then its still pretty damm evil even on account of the sheer scale of it.
I like to think that The Bad Guys movie is a "test". DreamWorks is experimenting with new ideas, and obviously, a new animation style. The movie is like DreamWorks doing a survey to the audience and asking them whether you like the stuff that they're doing. They probably didn't take too much consideration to the depth of character development and the general plot of the movie because it's just experimental... or that The Bad Guys was just a showcase of their new animation style, like the animation of the movie was the main meal whereas the plot and everything was just the side. Regardless, I think DreamWorks hit the mark with The Bad Guys. Even with the somewhat generic plot and of course, very very high furry bait, (Yes, Wolf dude and Diane Fox are kinda alluring) I still thought of it as a fun movie. The heists, music, (again) creative animation and decent comedy. With how much they showed with The Bad Guys, I can't wait to see what they have in store for Puss In Boots 2.
Person who read the books, here. The books are COMPLETLY different from the movie. There's zombie kittens, aliens, dinosaurs, superpowers, Satan Overlord Centipede and all sorts of stuff. But I still enjoy it 😅
so does the movie only cover the first book or did they just erase all that stuff cuz i heard that theres like 12 books and its pretty much impossible to fit 12 books worth of story telling into 1 and a half hour film.
I actually like that change because nowadays it’s all about time travel and what the fellow kids are into these days, I rather have a regular mega mind redemption arc then SpAcE AliEN gOeS tO tHe DiNoSaUr AgEs
4:22 the reason Dreamworks gave the main characters name's their own animal name is because in the actual books thats what they were named, and since they're adapting it from the books they have to keep it that way. So it really shouldn't be counted as a knock towards the movie but rather to the source material.
I loved that opening skit lmao- I do agree it is a little predictable but still pretty solid IMO. The humour was the worst part for me and...the animation the best obvs. Anyway 8/10.
I feel like I need to today this so people are less angry about it. Piranha farting in the car is one of his trates from the books. Although the joke is low brow and juvenile it shows that the creators of the film respected the source material.
@@theblizzard8735 I know. Its just a case of referencing something that didn't need to be referenced. But I somewhat appreciate that they added it in the film, despite how bad the joke is.
While I personally LOVED the film I can see where most of your criticisms come from, I like the idea of the bad guys each having their own trials at Marmalade's and I even have my own idea for Dianne. I have the idea that she was working with Marmalade to try and catch the Bad Guys in the act, but not to the extent of knowing about what he wanted with the meteorite. She could have made this agreed for the better of the city and with experience being a criminal it makes sense why she would do that. And she would be willing to give the Guys a second chance as she had already given herself hers to become the governor so maybe she thought they could too. This could add more to Dianne's character without changing that much from her movie iteration.
Marmalade's recording (and also Tiffany Fluffit as a character) are there to show how fickle the public's attitudes are towards the Bad Guys, and towards most things in general. You could read it as a subtle critique on cancel cultures and performative social activism (vicariously participating in the rehabilitation of criminals to make yourself feel good, instead of say petitioning for their rights). But the movie, I think, uses the cat scene, the gala scene, and any other scenes involving Fluffit to show that other people's approval and disapproval are so easily earned that they shouldn't be your motivation for anything. It's contrasted against Diane, whose mantra of "doing it because it makes YOU feel better" is the central theme of the film.
@@Aurakitty7770 Yeah! And far from lessening the impact of the Bad Guys' development, it strengthens it by making both their choices and the results solely their own in the end.
Surprised he didn't bring up the fact that snake, whilst still working for the good guys, hovered the good guys over A GAPING HOLE OF SPINNING BLADES, without knowing they would be saved
In the books it's actually a different story. My English is bad so bare with me: in the books Mr wolf (all the characters have Mr in front of their names) calls together a gang of animals who have bad reps as being "bad guys". He then tell them that they're gonna be called the good guys and try to do good. The main villain is marmalade and the plot kinda goes the same but they get introduced to Ms Fox who is a reporter but also a secret agent and they kinda work together. especially during the cute zombie animals arc And yes the character development is way better in the book and they each get their own parts
11:02 Funny you should say that cause in the first 2 book they do some good heist like breaking dogs out of a pound (Book 1) or saving chickens from a evil chicken farm (Book 2). Though, things go differently and more surreal later on in the series.
Sorry, but I find it really funny how Brian says the meteorite "came out of nowhere" when a newspaper showing the meteorite is the very first frame of the movie, and the crater it made is seen on a long shot during the opening chase scene.
Well, to be fair, I missed both of those (and the Crimson Paw introduction as well), so I felt that the meteorite and Diana being the Crimson Paw came out of nowhere. I am not the most insightful guy, but since Brian had the same problems, I guess they could have made those parts a little more noticable in the movie :)
For me this movies ie between okay and good. My problems are mostly the same as you, but also I felt like there’s a missed opportunity of them showing us the bag guys’s backstory. Since they’re just named after the animals that they are I thought it was gonna revealed there were all orphans, and were never adopted cause of there species (hence why they don’t have real names), that would be interesting as it would explains why they teamed up. Not just because of them sharing the same pain of discrimination but also loneliness, even making snake’s rant to wolf male more emotional impactful. This is also just a personal pet peeve of mine but I don’t get how they’re only like 7 anthro animals in this world, they could’ve at least did a BoJack horseman thing and had at least some animal characters in the background
The part that made me really mad was the part where the police officer or what ever her name was she really went "OMG IT'S THE GUY WE BEEN LOOKING FOR" even knowing that he is clearly the size of a piranha
Bro it’s a kids movie not an adult police documentary.You’re talking about the same movie where mr shark disguised himself as Mona Lisa.Of course they’re gonna think someone very short is was the one
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… I dunno chief. Don’t get me wrong what your are saying right here is definitely an observation of all time, you have certainly pointed an event that has happened in a movie, splendid job. And what I’m saying could be wrong because I don’t know a single thing about regular law enforcement protocols. But if I have to be guess, if im not wrong, im pretty sure (hear me out in this one) that maybe, just maybe (just a warning, this might come off as a shock to you). That perhaps *THATS THE FUCKING JOKE*
Dragons the Nine Realms killed my interest in DreamWorks as a company. Milking a beloved franchise and butchering it to hell and back for nostalgia and money. I speak for every HTTYD fan when I say FUCK DRAGONS THE NINE REALMS
@@willfanofmanyii3751 I'll blame both, because it's DreamWorks who insists on continuing this bullshit TV show to preserve a sense of relevancy with their fanbase. Which causes original ideas like the Bad Guys film to suffer as a result. DreamWorks could potentially create something new and on par with their core franchises, but they're so tunnel-visioned on HTTYD right now that original stuff falls by the waist side. Why do you think movies like Home and Abominable are completely forgotten yet having some potential in terms of premise??
@@GojiraFan-in9oo Home and Abominable were forgotten because nobody talked about the movies after their release, and they just weren't that well-received, despite how heavy Dreamworks tried to promote them. Besides, Universal is the ones calling shots, to the point the team that worked on all the other HTTYD shows and short films have nothing to do with Rescue Riders and Nine Realms. Dean already expressed problems with the third movie as Universal had guidelines for it to not be as mature as the first two films were.
I think they keep the franchise running because it's profitable. DreamWorks and Universal are just like any other business, they thrive on money and "How To Train Your Dragon" is probably one of their more lucrative projects. I think it's also the main reason why "The Boss Baby" and "Trolls" got a sequel and two series under their belts in spite of the negative critical reception towards them.
It's not a bad movie, but it doesn't mesh well with itself. It's like two different teams worked on the A and B plot. Then awkwardly tried to mash it together at the end. Plus, having a character suddenly having abrupt and sudden case of extreme incompetence/ stupidity. When in every other scene. They have been shown to be the exact opposite. Just ruins a movie for me.
The only thing that bothered me was the fart jokes , I think the narrative worked for this type of film , still better than many movies I saw lately , maybe a series for the franchise will help understanding the world and characters better , it was meant to give you good time and send a number of nice messages and test new styles of art , I give it 9/10
i think the movie time was too short fr us to actually feel anything for the characters, maybe in a sequel, we can actually dive more freely into each character. and yes the fart and butt jokes were annoying asf but i think the shark being able to disguise just added a whole lot more to the comedy, like even though im an adult, i still found that part funny as hell, maybe cz the movie had a crazy style and it was easy to go along with it XD
It's just called suspension of disbelief. It's what movies are supposed to do... And with a shark that clearly can't impersonate anything it's easy to do.
@@beaustoker3466 Yeah, it’s kinda like the world of Cars. You aren’t really supposed to dive deep into lore and the world, because there’s obviously plot holes, but i mean cmon it’s a kid movie lol
tbh this is my favorite movie rn I love the artstyle so much which is a major role in wether I like a movie, and the plot twists and turns aren't too overdone, but not underwhelming either. Its kinda like zootopia 2.0, but with a rushed ending (dang its always the ending they mess up) i think my lil feral autistic brain is part of this too but whatever lol
5:33 that is a shit take and you know it. Also, why don't you watch the TV series, where all the side characters received character development beyond their established personalities and quirks??
@@roosrebellion7749 Eh. Riders and Defenders each would take a couple days to watch. Dawn of the Dragon Racers is its own thing, but it's like a bonus episode of Defenders that foreshadows ROTE Race to the Edge I completely understand tho, as that would have to be a whole series of reviews with the amount of new content that it adds. Gift of the Night Fury is also a good one for the established canon, as it established why Hiccup never drastically updated his saddle until the 3rd film. Book of Dragons and Legend of the Boneknapper are moreso just one-off specials, not directly tied with the canon, because of 4th wall breaks in the former, and the sheer lack of the Boneknapper's presence in any other HTTYD media.
I think it's meant to be predictable. The film is very self aware, and you aren't supposed to take it seriously, rather just sit back and enjoy the ride
Honestly, I think that the movie is real solid when you ignore the issues of worldbuilding and occasional low blow jokes. I think that a lot of media i’ve seen generally takes more story driven, serious undertones that can be pretty dark because they deal with a lot of topics that require that kind of respect and care (death, for instance). From what I see, Bad Guys really focuses on the concept of creating a story that is fun and silly. Not necessarily the braindead kind of humor (Minions lol), but one that takes a concept that is dumb on paper and twists it into something that is entertaining and fun to watch on every step of the way. I’d give this movie a solid 7/10 because it kept me visually entertained and invested, but maybe my bias as an animator speaks for itself 555555+
“This must’ve been one crazy book” Man, as someone who actually read the books, I gotta say that the Marmalade twist in the books is WAY more crazier than the one in the movie.
I still don't get how Snake giving shark a push pop showed any indication of him doing good it seemed more like giving a child a pacifier or a peice of candy because you can't take the screaming and crying any more but the movie tried to play it off as a selfless act
"Those eyes are sending weird messages to my body and I don't like it." Hahaha! It's funny because it's true! My sister roasts me for liking the fox. She says, "How could you like such a boring character design?"
I think this movie was pretty good. Not amazing, but it was enjoyable. However, there was one thing that pissed me off about this movie, and that was during the car chase scene in the beginning. That scene was amazing, fastpased, and had great animation, but I had no idea why they were wasting all of that money. The whole point of the heist was to steal the money, so why the fuck did they leave their windows open and let the money just fly off!! They wasted more money than what they were left with!! I know I am being nitpicky, but that scene really got me angry! Also, great video, btw
In context the bank heist was for fun - for snake’s birthday. Wolf says “aw i wanted the car chase to be longer” when showing up at the police station, quite obviously indicating the heist is for funzies, not the money
@@sandshark2 oh, true true. Forgot about that detail. Still, they could've kept at least most of the money. But I think the reason why a lot of the money was flying around the place was just so that scene could look more detailed and cooler, which it succeeded at.
@@moonlightcray1068 they have plenty of money and gold and other precious artifacts that they stole at their secret warehouse, enough to live on for generations. They don’t need the money but they do the bank heists I assume to keep from being bored.
Beaniiebrian: As an adult...I'm not the only one who feels the sexual tension between these two right...? Me: I'm not even an adult and I could feel the sexual tension just fine...Should a 12 year old child be able to do that?
this is a film where a giant shark can wear a fake moustache and nobody would notice and your taking this movie WAY too seriously, this review absolutely sucks
Their names aren’t actually wolf, shark, snake, etc those are their nicknames like wolf’s real name is moe it’s in the books (yes I know he read the books)
Well, technically while Aquafina’s character is named Tarantula, they call her “Webbs” throughout the movie…. Which is undoubtably the most predictable name other than just Tarantula you could decide on, but still 🤷🏽♀️
I don’t know why movies now especially animated ones have to be so amazing nowadays Because if a studio does one or 2 movies that just don’t appeal to a 35 grownup ass man (not trying to be rude) than even tho those movies are meant for little kids than Fuck the whole studio I really don’t like that you can’t simply just enjoy a movie in this time, it needs to have something something that will be ground shaking or explode with the reviews And for me a simple nice movie that I can enjoy it’s enough I respect everyone’s critic but some people take those movies a bit to far with their serious criticism 😅
*me in the plane* Oh, a new movie that the piraña's voice acter is Anthony Ramos! I really liked his acting on Hamilton so gotta try! *watching* Okay, this is actually a little stupid. But I love the animation! Look at that style!! *later, still watching* You know what? I am going to skip this part. Oooh!! Action scene!!! I love it!! I really should study it when I have a chance to watch it again! *after* The animation was (chef's kiss) Though, what was the story about again? I just gonna watch the action again! :D
How did they get out of jail in a year? Wouldn’t they have spent more time in jail than they actually did? According to law, they would have spent 5 TO 9 YEARS IN PRISON.
Every movie has it's pros and cons, not every movie has to be revolutionary, it just has to be enjoyable for it's target audience and it's needs to be clear that effort was put into it. I hope everybody hear can agree that this movie was atleast decent.
Ok ... 14:38 The "good boy" is a joke about him being a wolf - dog and the good boy Also the granny and the wolf / red ridding hood ...? 14:50 Yes she could ve been a bad guy but shes woman cant have that... 15:45 Yeah survert the expectations ...
19:10 that never happened in the book in fact, the movie is basically like the 1st 4 books in 1 what happened in the book he just made an army of zombie kittens to rule the world why because he was an alien in disguise and he’s actually a child and a prince because in his alien family it’s a right of passage to take over and rule a planet it makes more sense when you ride the book
I swear, the only reason this film got such good reviews is because of the animation style. If it looked like any other Dreamworks film, the score would be the same as Shark Tale or Shrek the Third.
To me dreamworks has also been like if illumination tried harder and the bad guys very much makes me wish that it was more common to at least attempt to have some originality instead of the land of cheap cash grabs that children’s animation normally is

It’s almost like he’s nitpicking on details in an attempt to build up an argument for why he doesn’t like this movie.
For me this movies ie between okay and good. My problems are mostly the same as you, but also I felt like there’s a missed opportunity of them showing us the bag guys’s backstory. Since they’re just named after the animals that they are I thought it was gonna revealed there were all orphans, and were never adopted cause of there species (hence why they don’t have real names), that would be interesting as it would explains why they teamed up. Not just because of them sharing the same pain of discrimination but also loneliness, even making snake’s rant to wolf male more emotional impactful. This is also just a personal pet peeve of mine but I don’t get how they’re only like 7 anthro animals in this world, they could’ve at least did a BoJack horseman thing and had at least some animal characters in the background
The part that made me really mad was the part where the police officer or what ever her name was she really went "OMG IT'S THE GUY WE BEEN LOOKING FOR" even knowing that he is clearly the size of a piranha
Bro it’s a kids movie not an adult police documentary.You’re talking about the same movie where mr shark disguised himself as Mona Lisa.Of course they’re gonna think someone very short is was the one
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm… I dunno chief. Don’t get me wrong what your are saying right here is definitely an observation of all time, you have certainly pointed an event that has happened in a movie, splendid job. And what I’m saying could be wrong because I don’t know a single thing about regular law enforcement protocols.
But if I have to be guess, if im not wrong, im pretty sure (hear me out in this one) that maybe, just maybe (just a warning, this might come off as a shock to you). That perhaps *THATS THE FUCKING JOKE*
It's called cartoon logic.
You just hate everything, don’t you?
Nah he’s just making jokes. Welcome to RUclips
Dragons the Nine Realms killed my interest in DreamWorks as a company.
Milking a beloved franchise and butchering it to hell and back for nostalgia and money.
I speak for every HTTYD fan when I say
FUCK DRAGONS THE NINE REALMS
You can thank Universal for that.
@@willfanofmanyii3751 I'll blame both, because it's DreamWorks who insists on continuing this bullshit TV show to preserve a sense of relevancy with their fanbase.
Which causes original ideas like the Bad Guys film to suffer as a result.
DreamWorks could potentially create something new and on par with their core franchises, but they're so tunnel-visioned on HTTYD right now that original stuff falls by the waist side.
Why do you think movies like Home and Abominable are completely forgotten yet having some potential in terms of premise??
@@GojiraFan-in9oo Home and Abominable were forgotten because nobody talked about the movies after their release, and they just weren't that well-received, despite how heavy Dreamworks tried to promote them.
Besides, Universal is the ones calling shots, to the point the team that worked on all the other HTTYD shows and short films have nothing to do with Rescue Riders and Nine Realms. Dean already expressed problems with the third movie as Universal had guidelines for it to not be as mature as the first two films were.
Also fuck trolls and boss fetus because they scream baby movies
I think they keep the franchise running because it's profitable. DreamWorks and Universal are just like any other business, they thrive on money and "How To Train Your Dragon" is probably one of their more lucrative projects. I think it's also the main reason why "The Boss Baby" and "Trolls" got a sequel and two series under their belts in spite of the negative critical reception towards them.
It's not a bad movie, but it doesn't mesh well with itself. It's like two different teams worked on the A and B plot. Then awkwardly tried to mash it together at the end.
Plus, having a character suddenly having abrupt and sudden case of extreme incompetence/ stupidity. When in every other scene. They have been shown to be the exact opposite. Just ruins a movie for me.
5:33 I literally gasped at the same time the sound effect kicked in lmao. We gasped in unison
I was on the test audience and I loved what they showed us, I haven’t seen the final product though.
The only thing that bothered me was the fart jokes , I think the narrative worked for this type of film , still better than many movies I saw lately , maybe a series for the franchise will help understanding the world and characters better , it was meant to give you good time and send a number of nice messages and test new styles of art , I give it 9/10
i think the movie time was too short fr us to actually feel anything for the characters, maybe in a sequel, we can actually dive more freely into each character.
and yes the fart and butt jokes were annoying asf but i think the shark being able to disguise just added a whole lot more to the comedy, like even though im an adult, i still found that part funny as hell, maybe cz the movie had a crazy style and it was easy to go along with it XD
well if the fart jokes are a problem then i suggest that you blame the author cuz the directers have to copy everything from the book into the movie
I like how he always makes the title seem like he doesn’t like the movie to clickbait people, honestly really smart so I’m gonna steal that
It doesn't always work lol, but ok
@@unbreakable.3132 I guess clickbaiting is welcome here since he’s talking about The “Bad” Guys.
I actually really liked the movie, I turned my brain off when I watched it so I actually thought it was really great .
It's just called suspension of disbelief. It's what movies are supposed to do... And with a shark that clearly can't impersonate anything it's easy to do.
@@beaustoker3466 Yeah, it’s kinda like the world of Cars. You aren’t really supposed to dive deep into lore and the world, because there’s obviously plot holes, but i mean cmon it’s a kid movie lol
I think kids deserve better.
I got Blues Clues, what do they get? Blaze and the Monster trucks.
That how I enjoy jungle shuffle since is corny and clunky but I love it since cel shaded and coatis representation
tbh this is my favorite movie rn
I love the artstyle so much which is a major role in wether I like a movie,
and the plot twists and turns aren't too overdone, but not underwhelming either.
Its kinda like zootopia 2.0, but with a rushed ending (dang its always the ending they mess up)
i think my lil feral autistic brain is part of this too but whatever lol
i thought the ending was a good way of showing how taking responsibility will go a long way
There’s a zootopia 2? I’ve ignored it’s existence
@@skygazer6082 No sadly, they’re just saying it would be like one since it’s animal characters in a city environment lol
@@dryfox11 oops lol
You can enjoy jungle shuffle since it has similar art but a little clunky, just watch it for the coatis
I actually saw this movie in the theater and enjoyed it, but your review is hilarious and points out many things that I clearly didn't notice
5:33 that is a shit take and you know it.
Also, why don't you watch the TV series, where all the side characters received character development beyond their established personalities and quirks??
He'd probably say he "doesn't have time" to watch the show.
@@roosrebellion7749 Eh. Riders and Defenders each would take a couple days to watch.
Dawn of the Dragon Racers is its own thing, but it's like a bonus episode of Defenders that foreshadows ROTE
Race to the Edge I completely understand tho, as that would have to be a whole series of reviews with the amount of new content that it adds.
Gift of the Night Fury is also a good one for the established canon, as it established why Hiccup never drastically updated his saddle until the 3rd film.
Book of Dragons and Legend of the Boneknapper are moreso just one-off specials, not directly tied with the canon, because of 4th wall breaks in the former, and the sheer lack of the Boneknapper's presence in any other HTTYD media.
@@GojiraFan-in9oo Sheesh. I thought it was only like....two shows.
Some people separate the source from the spin-offs.

"Ooh, what a convenient ramp!"
-me the first time watching the movie
I am lovin your opening skits! Hilarious 😂 and your jokes always slap 👋 glad to see you back!
Glad to be back!
Why did you give the movie 5/10. The movie was to good. The animation, the characters even the story was great. I think it deserves 7.5/10 or 8/10.
6/10 try watch previous cartoon movies 2000-2010 you see how we degrade.
@@VITAS874 The movie still deserves 8/10.
@@arkadiy3004 6/10 story, graphic 8/10
They just don’t have the heart for it yet.
Guys, we all have our own opinions.
I think it's meant to be predictable. The film is very self aware, and you aren't supposed to take it seriously, rather just sit back and enjoy the ride
7:30 why is this one part got me rolling 💀 😂😂💀
I actually loved "the bad guys".
Brian : (complains on how this movie is a mess)
Me : dang, Mr. Piranha has singing talent!
0:40 what the actual fuck did you just say about turbo???
that it was shit, which it is
Honestly, I think that the movie is real solid when you ignore the issues of worldbuilding and occasional low blow jokes.
I think that a lot of media i’ve seen generally takes more story driven, serious undertones that can be pretty dark because they deal with a lot of topics that require that kind of respect and care (death, for instance).
From what I see, Bad Guys really focuses on the concept of creating a story that is fun and silly. Not necessarily the braindead kind of humor (Minions lol), but one that takes a concept that is dumb on paper and twists it into something that is entertaining and fun to watch on every step of the way.
I’d give this movie a solid 7/10 because it kept me visually entertained and invested, but maybe my bias as an animator speaks for itself 555555+
I gave it a 6/10 and still looove it. We miss similarities more than we think lol
"You'll die disappointed" YA'LL 😭
“This must’ve been one crazy book”
Man, as someone who actually read the books, I gotta say that the Marmalade twist in the books is WAY more crazier than the one in the movie.
The movie was sooooo much worse than the books
I’d love to see a remake of this film where they do breaking bad esc crimes and actually get punished for their actions in the end
Bad guys but R rated
badder guys
So basically the bad guys where they die in the end?
When you realize that a movie you watched and really liked is getting destroyed by a film critic 💀💀💀
Why is it so hard for people to animate cute guinea pigs??
What?
I still don't get how Snake giving shark a push pop showed any indication of him doing good it seemed more like giving a child a pacifier or a peice of candy because you can't take the screaming and crying any more but the movie tried to play it off as a selfless act
It’s learning how to share
The banter in the opening skit is gold.
"Those eyes are sending weird messages to my body and I don't like it."
Hahaha! It's funny because it's true!
My sister roasts me for liking the fox. She says, "How could you like such a boring character design?"
why shall you despise the bad guys!?
Dude it is his opinion
He thought it was ok-
I believe that it is NOT a mess
13:35 dude it’s a family movie, this is phub 😭
I think this movie was pretty good. Not amazing, but it was enjoyable. However, there was one thing that pissed me off about this movie, and that was during the car chase scene in the beginning. That scene was amazing, fastpased, and had great animation, but I had no idea why they were wasting all of that money. The whole point of the heist was to steal the money, so why the fuck did they leave their windows open and let the money just fly off!! They wasted more money than what they were left with!! I know I am being nitpicky, but that scene really got me angry! Also, great video, btw
In context the bank heist was for fun - for snake’s birthday. Wolf says “aw i wanted the car chase to be longer” when showing up at the police station, quite obviously indicating the heist is for funzies, not the money
@@sandshark2 oh, true true. Forgot about that detail. Still, they could've kept at least most of the money. But I think the reason why a lot of the money was flying around the place was just so that scene could look more detailed and cooler, which it succeeded at.
@@moonlightcray1068 they have plenty of money and gold and other precious artifacts that they stole at their secret warehouse, enough to live on for generations. They don’t need the money but they do the bank heists I assume to keep from being bored.
@@moonlightcray1068 I mean back in the base they have literal stacks of gold
This guy makes movies look bad but funny 😆
Beaniiebrian: As an adult...I'm not the only one who feels the sexual tension between these two right...?

Bad review
I read the books and I think one of the problems is that they just shoved 4-5 books into one movie
And they pretty much changed the most important details
Nope your not alone I think most people over five could see that 13:43
Hey. Turbo was pretty good
this is a film where a giant shark can wear a fake moustache and nobody would notice and your taking this movie WAY too seriously, this review absolutely sucks
I mean, he kinda does make jokes about that in the video

I’d definitely give the whole movie a 7/10. It was all good and all, but some certain scenes were forgettable.
5:51 I thought her name was "Fox"
This review is a mess.

7:17 I am dying of laughter here!!!!!!!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Yes, why won’t you let him have it? 0:57
12:16 yea that’s pretty realistic😮
Well there's an unpopular opinion. (Not that there's anything wrong with unpopular opinions)
The Bad Guys aint even that bad
i love you brian but i disagree i think the movie was pretty good in my opinion.
This aged badly
I actually liked this one, as a kind of parody of heist films
I dont care, i came to watch something entertaining
how is it a mess?
anything is better then boss baby
Another boss baby movie would be kinda dope And a new Netflix series like back in the office or something
No.
n o
Haha!Good joke!

Their names aren’t actually wolf, shark, snake, etc those are their nicknames like wolf’s real name is moe it’s in the books (yes I know he read the books)
Well, technically while Aquafina’s character is named Tarantula, they call her “Webbs” throughout the movie…. Which is undoubtably the most predictable name other than just Tarantula you could decide on, but still 🤷🏽♀️
I think her book counterpart was a male nicknamed Legs.
I don’t know why movies now especially animated ones have to be so amazing nowadays
Because if a studio does one or 2 movies that just don’t appeal to a 35 grownup ass man (not trying to be rude) than even tho those movies are meant for little kids than
Fuck the whole studio I really don’t like that you can’t simply just enjoy a movie in this time, it needs to have something something that will be ground shaking or explode with the reviews
And for me a simple nice movie that I can enjoy it’s enough I respect everyone’s critic but some people take those movies a bit to far with their serious criticism 😅
*1 movie later* Dreamworks is on top of every other studio *another movie later* back to the hospital
yea it’s basically puss in boots 2 a blessing
spirit untamed back to the hospital
*me in the plane*
Oh, a new movie that the piraña's voice acter is Anthony Ramos! I really liked his acting on Hamilton so gotta try!
*watching*
Okay, this is actually a little stupid. But I love the animation! Look at that style!!
*later, still watching*
You know what? I am going to skip this part. Oooh!! Action scene!!! I love it!! I really should study it when I have a chance to watch it again!
*after*
The animation was (chef's kiss)
Though, what was the story about again? I just gonna watch the action again! :D
Good tonight is a bop tho
How did they get out of jail in a year? Wouldn’t they have spent more time in jail than they actually did? According to law, they would have spent 5 TO 9 YEARS IN PRISON.
Every movie has it's pros and cons, not every movie has to be revolutionary, it just has to be enjoyable for it's target audience and it's needs to be clear that effort was put into it. I hope everybody hear can agree that this movie was atleast decent.
Ok ...
14:38
The "good boy" is a joke about him being a wolf - dog and the good boy
Also the granny and the wolf / red ridding hood ...?
14:50
Yes she could ve been a bad guy but shes woman cant have that...
15:45
Yeah survert the expectations ...
19:10 that never happened in the book in fact, the movie is basically like the 1st 4 books in 1 what happened in the book he just made an army of zombie kittens to rule the world why because he was an alien in disguise and he’s actually a child and a prince because in his alien family it’s a right of passage to take over and rule a planet it makes more sense when you ride the book
i like the bad guys but people have opinions
5:39
Fans of How To Train Your Dragon: we’ll burn you at the stake
(This is a joke)
give me a break I LOVE the bad guys. and I Loved it more than Puss in boots TLW.
My favorite characters are Wolf and Snake
They made bad guys to get money for puss in boots is my guess
I assume that it puss in boots wasn’t made in less than a year
7:48 funniest thing I have seen on forever
L + ratio
I swear, the only reason this film got such good reviews is because of the animation style. If it looked like any other Dreamworks film, the score would be the same as Shark Tale or Shrek the Third.
Haha, you at 22:20
Serves you right for making a terrible review for this movie I liked XD
To me dreamworks has also been like if illumination tried harder and the bad guys very much makes me wish that it was more common to at least attempt to have some originality instead of the land of cheap cash grabs that children’s animation normally is
