The Grim Adventures of the KND (2007 TV Movie)

Fast yes, funny not really

[4/10 · 24 August 2017]

"The Grim Adventures of the KND" is a 23-minute cartoon from 2007, so this one has its 10th anniversary this year. I read that in here the KND and the Grim Squad are joining forces, but I must admit that I have no idea who these two are. But on tho good side this means I am not biased or pre-informed on what to expect here. Then again if I had been, then I may just have skipped this one. The biggest letdown for me was the character animation that did really nothing and I just wasn't a fan at all of how most characters, also core characters, were animated. The other aspects visually like sets and landscapes were better, but nothing too special either. Oh well, this latter description also applies to voice acting, the plot and the ways in which the characters were written. I found it all terribly mediocre to be honest and it does not get me curious one bit about the shows this short film was adapted from. Finally, a word on the voice actors. I don't know any of them, but I see Seth MacFarlane's sister in here. They were/are all fairly experienced though I see and I don't think they were any of the biggest problems this one has in its slightly over 20 minutes. I give it a thumbs-down overall and I can only shake my head to be honest at the fact that people, including the only other reviewer, would give it a perfect 10/10 rating. Ask yourself: Is this on the same level of the great classics, the best films and shows you have ever seen in your life? The answer is obvious. Watch something else instead.
