It was a fun time and I shed a tear or two but it really bothered me that it wasn't in chronological order. Not sure why they decided to mix up the scene order for the movie but it was distracting as someone who has read the book.

I'm actually relieved to read your testimony. I was really afraid the CGI animals were going to ruin the entire thing.The last film I saw was "The Call of the Wild" starring Harrison Ford. It was pretty spot on for an adaptation of the book and very family friendly. "The Call of the Wild" was my favorite book in middle school, and it was interesting to see a cleaned up version of it on the big screen. The CGI animals were initially off putting, but one gets used to it. I'd probably give it a 3 out of 4 stars. I do have my gripes about the thematic narrative of the movie adaptation, but overall, it followed pretty closely to the book (minus the graphic violence).
I wish studios would actually go back to training animals LOL

8/10, only cause not all of the songs were my fav but this definitely rates higher than Frozen 1 for me.

I'm so sorry you didn't enjoy the film! Personally, I think the first half of the movie leans more towards the comedy side and the second half is where the mystery/suspense really picks up. So if it wasn't your taste in the beginning, see if you can skip a bit and then enjoy the thriller. The cast gives great performances and they only become more entertaining the more that they play off of each other. (I've already watched it twice!)Reina275 wrote: ↑01 Apr 2020, 20:30 I just watched Knives Out. I would say is the typical thing that you chose to see when you don´t have anything more to see, sadly. I heard all good things about it but I don´t agree at all. They mix drama and comedy but it is nothing fun about it and you get bored before half of the movie. I would rate it 4/10.
