BRizz 2 The Bad Guys – Netflix Specials (Haunted Heist & A Very Bad Holiday) I’m combining these two into one review because they’re only 24 minutes each and there’s not enough in either to justify a full deep dive. That being said, the writing is solid and fits right in with The Bad Guys franchise’s ongoing story direction. The holiday special (A Very Bad Holiday) actually contains a Santa Claus scene that’s referenced in the second theatrical film. I didn’t fully get the joke until I saw the movie today—now it clicks perfectly. It’s a nice little connection for fans paying attention. For kids, both specials are still fun and entertaining, but they’re missing that final spark that makes the movies so great: the original voice cast. No matter how hard you try to ignore it, it’s obvious different actors are voicing the characters here. They just don’t bring the same energy, charm, and comedic timing that the theatrical cast nailed. That change shifts the tone, too. The Bad Guys movies feel like clever adult comedy wrapped in kid-friendly fun—something both kids and parents can enjoy together. These specials lean much more childish, almost like something you’d put on in the background for a toddler, rather than something the whole family would be hooked on. Still, they’re enjoyable little additions to the franchise and will keep younger fans entertained. I just wish they had brought back the original cast to make them truly shine.

The people act a lot different too. They cry like babies just because of a Santa balloon. Like what? And I thought the bad guys became good as well. And it feels like something is a bit off of how it looks, like they added high constrast or something and my brother realized that sometimes when the characters move they do a weird teleport. This is just things i realized which made me not like it. Haunted Heist I knew was gonna be better because they had more time. They could've just saved this for 2024 and not rush and get it finished in 2023.
