Storks (2016)

Absolutely the worst movie.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I don't really have that much to say about this movie. Its not bad necessarily. The plot is a bit predictable and yet all over the place. The animation is ok. Its kinda funny. I didn't laugh much. There's a lot of cringeworthy moments. There is a love story between a human and a bird for some reason? I don't know why I saw this in theaters. Its not worth its runtime. I guess you could put it on for a kid. Its very boring though, despite how bizarre it gets.

I was so disappointed. This is possibly the worst cartoon I watched. At 44mins in, I haven't laughed once. It is borderline painful to watch how a somewhat cute idea was so badly delivered. The script is just ridiculously awful and forced with idiotic jokes. I expected an easy to watch, cute kids movie, but watching Storks became almost a challenge to see how long can I endure wasting my time watching this pointless thing.

Storks is one of my all-time top 10 favorite movies ever. The story line is compelling, the humor is belly-laugh outrageous, and the creativity is superb. What's disappointing is that it isn't more popular, because when I saw it, I was sure "wolf pack, form (insert random noun here)" would become part of our cultural vernacular. The pigeon scene (how do you like me now?!) was snort-milk-out-your-nose funny. The brilliance of the writing is that instead of relying on tired, over-used 'bad guy' scenes to move plot ahead, even the what-you-think-will-turn-into-scary-scenes have a way of turning on a dime and becoming screamingly funny.

I had no idea what to expect of this movie before I watched it, but I enjoyed it, although part of it are seriously weird. The conflict is that a whole bunch of storks run a business and their job does not happen to be delivering babies. However, a red-head girl accidentally makes a baby with a machine, and she and a stork named Junior have to deliver it in secret; the business owner must not know. Along the way, they meet wolves. There is a certain boy that ordered the baby because he is a single kid and wants more family time.As for the humor, a lot of it was cheesy. The humor was for kids six and under, yet most say the plot is for kids six and over, which means it has a small age range. However, the whole family enjoyed what the wolves did. Everyone would burst into laughter and want more. What the business owner did to show the income was pretty funny.The wrong actors were selected. The characters talked too fast, mostly the main two characters, which was annoying. There were no characters singing, but when the characters weren't talking, there were a couple of songs, and they were horrible.At the end, storks are delivering babies again. It shows a bunch of parents happily receiving their new children. Two of the pairs are homosexual, one of two dads, and the other of two moms. You see them only for a split second. I won't say where I stand.I wish it was less cheesy and that the actors had talked a little slower, but it was otherwise mostly good (again, weird plot). Not the sort of movie worth watching in the theater. That would be a waste of money. Perfect movie, though, if you want to watch something with your kids on the weekend.
