Kambole Campbell One Room With A View One wishes that this movie could be erased from existence - but for now, let's hope that the burning wreckage acts as a warning to never, ever do this again. Rated: 1/5 Aug 25, 2018 Full Review Jake Wilson The Age (Australia) If I'm not dreaming, I've just seen one of the boldest mainstream American movies in ages. Rated: 4/5 Sep 13, 2017 Full Review Nigel Andrews Financial Times Occasionally it's as if The Lego Movie is reaching out a long, friendly arm to Inside Out and falling into the chasm between. But the film is inventive too. Rated: 3/5 Aug 7, 2017 Full Review Jason Best What's On TV It's hard to decide what is most annoying about this cinematic botch: the ugly animation, the contrived story or the blatant product placement, or the fact that the filmmakers spoil almost every gag by underlining it twice. Rated: 1/5 Dec 20, 2020 Full Review Leigh Monson Substream Magazine It's a horrifying scene set atop a pile of trash, but the pure absurdity of its existence is enough to make one laugh in shock and disbelief. Rated: 1/5 Sep 25, 2020 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com No one beyond the smallest of children should be entertained by this shameless money grab that fails in virtually every way. Rated: .5/4.0 Sep 7, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

This is by far the worst movie I've ever seen! This movie has no plot at all and the jokes and everything they say is cringy. I don't recommend this movie to anyone at all. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review McKay S Why does this exist? It seems like this whole movie was just ad placement for various apps. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review James G it's alright, not sure why people absolutely despise it Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/24/24 Full Review Audience Member I beat my meat to this movie Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/24/24 Full Review Read all reviews
