Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie

Review by Ryan Davidson

Score: 9/10

This movie is surprisingly excellent. For a film that could've so easily drowned in bad potty humor it's even more satisfying when it ends up being an incredibly well thought out and creative venture. While it does stay faithful to the source material, it makes sure to not over do it on the potty humor. This movie is funny and clever, and just continued to impress me more and more with its unique storytelling. I'm a sucker for good animation, and Dreamworks has disappointed recently. It's nice to see them bounce back with something that is actually worth watching.  Although many will see this film as "too-childish," it is actually one of the more creative films to be released. It's off the wall, it's goofy, and it's funny. Those are what I expected going in, and I got those in bunches. I definitely recommend seeing this.
