Dick Figures: The Movie (2013)

As Good As It Gets

This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.

This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The acting in this movie is really good.

This film must be watched a lot of times. Dick Figures: The Movie is way better than the TV show of the same.

"Dick Figures: The Movie" is a hilarious epic story about two friends named Red and Blue and their quest to recover the legendary Sword of Destiny. If you're looking for a great comedy, this is it. This movie has action, drama, and of course a hefty dose of raunchy humor. This is definitely not a kids' movie, as you might infer from the title. There is a lot of profanity, sexual references, violence, and more. Think "South Park" without the annoying voices. I recommend this for anyone who likes movies such as "Pineapple Express", "Ted", "Dumb and Dumber", "Shaun of the Dead", or others like that. It has some stoner humor like Pineapple Express, a cute talking animal like Ted, a hilarious epic road trip like Dumb and Dumber, and tons of action and one-liners like Shaun of the Dead. Some of the humor is related to the original web-series, so you'll get more out of it if you watch some Dick Figures episodes first. They are all free on YouTube.Bottom line: if you haven't seen it, check it out!

Despicable Me 2- 3/4 Monsters University- on its own it's a great film, which is why I give it a 4/4. That being said, it's not as memorable as other Pixar films. Cloudy 2- 2/4 Epic- 2.5/4 Escape from planet earth- awful in every aspect, 1/4 Dick figures: the movie? This has been a bad year for animated flicks and this has probably been the highlight of them all. Great film that should be released in the theaters everywhere. It would have a better chance of getting an Oscar nod but eh, it's all right. Its fine the way it is. a youtube movie.That may be changed when Frozen comes out though. A very memorable and heartfelt adventure, even if it's short and a little campy at times. 4/4

"Prepare yourself. For STICK FIGURES. And RACCOONS. And NINJAS. And EXPLOSIONS. And LOVE. And HATE. Two friends will risk it all to find the greatest treasure of all time." I have been eagerly awaiting this movies premier since it was first announced. This movie was made for the fans, (funded) by the fans, and they didn't disappoint. I've been a big fan of the series since I discovered it halfway through season 1.While some movie adaptations stray from the series on which they are based, Dick Figures: The Movie keeps what made the series so great, then turns things like the animation and action up to 11. I think a big part of this is that they went with crowd sourcing, raised the movie, and produced all in house with complete creative control, rather than being at the mercy of some big Hollywood studio.There was some great action sequences, lots of laughs including some gut busting hilarity in the Paris restaurant scenes. At the same time, Ed and Zack have taken the opportunity to not only bump up the animation, action, comedy, and explosions but also give more depth to the characters. We get to learn more about Raccoon, and we see a softer side of Pink that literally confirms that she loves Blue. We also learn how Red and Blue's friendship came to be, the strain that gets put on it, and ultimately the greater appreciation they have for it. Red (eventually) shows that he really does care, and Blue finally has his day. There are some genuinely touching moments that really make you feel for the characters.Then of course, there's the Easter Eggs. After watching it the first time or three, it's worth watching it again and pausing to check out all of the neat pop culture references and references to the series as a whole. For example, have a good look in Blue's room, especially the bookshelf.This was such an awesome movie, and does the fans proud. If you're a fan of the series you owe it to yourself to buy or rent it. If you're not familiar with the series but enjoy action, explosions, and wacky, colorful characters, check it out.
