Bands on the Run

I found out about this movie from RebelTaxi. I got it on DVD, too. It is a bad and crazy movie. The editing is poor, the animation looks primitive, and its so cheap overall. Also, WHY DID ENTERTAINMENT ONE RELEASE THIS STUFF ON DVD?!?!?!?!? I mean, that's crazy!

Watching the review of this movie and seeing the comments can be a field day, and I've seen some that said that the storyboards look better the actual movie. I couldn't agree more. I liked the bands themselves, as I was able to deduce their personalities as a family of sorts: Daisy - The Crybaby Little Sister Roxie - The Tomboy Older Sister Edison (I call him Ed-Boi) - The Stand-Up Comedian Brother Ray - The Cautious Father Amelia - The Caring Mother Stretch - The Badass Uncle If it was something like Small Soldiers, I would've cared for it more. But as it is, it's meh. The voice acting was decent enough for the main 6, didn't care for anyone else, cringy editing, cringier animation (from China, no less), so on, so forth. The whole thing is on YouTube for free, I'd prefer that you watch it while high and/or drunk. If not, don't even bother.

Honestly, this incredibly short film (43 minutes) is comparable to other insanely bad animated movies like Foodfight, Rapsittie street kids, the chistmas brigade and so on but Bands on the run is nothing but bad animation, a plot that doesn't exist, jokes that are on level with knock knock jokes told by a 7 year old. But once you start getting annoyed the movie ends so it feels like a potato chip, a quick taste that ends quickly and you forget quickly afterwards
