Wendell & Wild (2022)
Gorgeous animation... Unsatisfactory plot.
The animation is actually stunning. I found myself being throughly engaged just from the animation alone. The representation was also refreshing.
However, there is far too much going on. The plot tries to do too much which means no one character is developed enough. Wendell and wild are hardly seen during this film which is strange, considering that the film is named after them. If this film must be remade, I would recommend trying to reign in the character focus.
I feel like in an attempt to make this film representative and inclusive as possible, it fails to properly aline it's story.
Still worth a watch just for the animation.
The House (2022)
Neither horror, nor comedy.
Watching this film, I wondered if I'd be more productive if I watched paint dry. The film is far too slow. To have 3 acts was an interesting choice, however they're not all of the same quality. If they had kept up the themes in act 1, the film would have been way more interesting. It almost felt like I was watching a really long trailer or multiple films with no endings on a loop. The stories were okay but hardly funny. I don't even know if I can call it horror. At most I was unnerved, and this was purely from act 1.
The one good thing that this film has going on is the animation.
