Happy Family Reviews
By 10 minutes in I was seeing Rifftrax potential. By 20 minutes in I was intrigued by this clearly British family that was super excited to go to London...on a plane... from NYC. By 30 minutes in I was over the fart jokes and weirded out by the "Dracula stalks and kidnaps woman, then gives her a magic pill" storyline in a children's movie (and I was already a bit weirded out by the rest, trust me). I did not make it to 40 minutes in, though it felt like an eternity. My son thankfully lost interest by the 5th fart joke. The secondhand vampire teeth and the attempt to kiss in astronaut helmets were funny, so it gets 1 star. Not funny enough to give it any more of my time though.
4/10. 45/100. | Was it just me, or is half this movie supposed to be originally in a different language from English? Half the time it seemed dubbed.
Umas das piores animações que já assisti, sem graça, enredo horrível e tedioso e nenhum personagem chega a ser bom.
As somebody who is of the target audience, not even I could enjoy this film. It's a production that wreaks of abhorrent voice acting, repulsive character design, and terrible storytelling. Additionally, its whole existence, in my opinion, is to be a mock buster of a fundamentally better movie; Hotel Transylvania. Please, if you plan to watch this horrid motion picture, heed my warning - Happy Family is an unsatisfactory mess. Do not watch it.
The worst 01 hour: and 33 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
my mom liked the movie
I'm not sure why this is so badly reviewed. We enjoyed it
some people are way too harsh on this film. its really not that bad. definitely not perfect, but not bad enough for 1 star. i think this is a fun family film all ages can enjoy. there are things obviously just for kids like fart jokes and some scenes do slow down such as when the mom chases after the witch in the beginning i think that dragged on way too long. however overall its a cute little story and the graphics are actually pretty good for not being a big name company. would i recommend this or rewatch it? probably not unless theres nothing else to watch but i think once is good enough
this is the worst animation i have ever seen, she is not visually beautiful, she is all pissed off, very boring and wasted characters, boring script that hurts, seriously this movie is rubbish.
Terrible. Disturbing. How it ever got made is beyond me.
With such a talented voice cast I was expecting something remotely charming, but Monster/Happy Family is derivative, unoriginal, and downright painful chocka with offensive stereotypes and a script that makes no sense let alone provides a laugh. I like animated films, but by the end of this one you don't even care if it has an endearing ending or not.
the premise of the movie is so dumb and also executed poorly not only do they introduce dracula at the beginning as a good dude who you should be pitying, and then have to quickly fix that mistake by completely changing his character for the rest of the movie, if you completely ignore the subplot of "dracula wants to marry me, but i cant leave my family," and then the poorly inserted "but suddenly my son and daughter are mad at me for TWO WHOLE seconds so i scream at my husband until he runs away all sad, and then i go agree to marry dracula, but wait! hold on! my kids still love me!" nonsense, the movie could pass as semi-decent to someone who had never seen a movie before, and therefore had incredibly low standards like they couldve inserted any other villain any other way and the general "the whole family gains confidence and learns to be happy and love each other" point wouldve gotten across fine. it couldve been an ancient curse from a dumb amulet or mirror they found. theyve got max's little "people are scared of me :(" (which is dumb, because its too short Missable if youre not careful moment, fay's little "im the only person who will ever find you beautiful" "no, Screw You, beauty doesnt matter" moment (which is also way too short, and her being able to turn into a TORNADO shouldve been introduced way earlier in the film so that they could actually play with it) and the dad beats the trash out of a bug and then dracula and has No Further Plot Development beyond that so if i were to, attempt to fix this movie, (because practice what you preach) 1) get rid of or change the trashy hotel transylvania wannabe "dracula dancing" scene at the beginning, he needs to be creepy, not cute. they Almost do a good job of this with the later dance scene where he's basically dragging emma along and it has very control-freak murderer vibes. the opening scene shoudnt be making him lovable and pitiful if hes gonna try to destroy all life on earth later on 2) every family member should have gotten like, a small-medium-large series of scenes devoted to their character growth. they Kinda do this but its not got enough like, emphasis put into it. all of the scenes serve as after thoughts. (except for the dad, in which said scenes Straight Up Dont Exist. zero reasonable character growth) 3) get rid of the kids/mom fighting scene where she pisses off both her kids off and then screams at her husband for virtually no reason (since he has 0 presence in the film save for the necessary minion fart humor) replace it with like, "oh we lost dad" and then theyre all kinda Reasonably Frustrated At Each Other and storm off, and then when the mom's alone the story can play out as it originally did, or maybe even have dracula kidnap her, which would further help vilify him!! two birds babey!!! 4) and i cant stress this enough, give us the monster family plot we all wanted/expected, where emma is a single mom trying to raise 2 kids and dracula is a a charming young man with limited knowledge of human life trying to woo her and they fall in love and its called My Vampire Stepdad, Dadcula Prince Of Darkness or something dumb and sitcom-y like that
A family in need of some time together dress up as Halloween monsters and come across a witch who turns them into their costumes in their reality. I did not enjoy the film as it dragged on and was boring with not many laughs.
I was intrigued by the premise of the movie, and throughout watching it I kept expecting some awesome things to happen, certain twists and turns that would subvert tropes and spice up the story. In fact it jumped into the tropes. We have not one but TWO villains that want to take over the world (such an original motive), and the biggest one of all, a family who grow strong through the power of friend- I mean, "family." A family, I might add, who didn't have any chemistry at all in the beginning but then out of the blue decide they need each other (it doesn't help that the mother could only think of 'three' instances of family interaction that weren't all terrible). The tropes are boring and tired, and I got the sinking feeling of dread when the father seemed only to have fart jokes going for him, which is not a lot. It doesn't help that it tries to squeeze a few learned values in there, and it feels forced. This story could've been so interesting if only they had thought outside the box, but they decided to stay put inside of it. I kept fast forwarding to see where it was going to surprise me, to give me something good, but that moment never came. Viewer beware, you're in for a scare, but not the good kind.
As a child I was always easily terrified of monsters and villians. While watching movies or shows I would always find myself cheering for the good guys to win. Much has changed since then, like my ability to empathize with the "villians". You see, I'm one of those foolish people who thinks that in most cases the "villian" is just misunderstood and I find myself cheering them on now. In this movie said "villian" is none other than Dracula, the Prince of Darkness. Over the years an obscene amount of films, games, books, etc have been created based on Bram Stoker's Dracula. So many different versions of his story circulate the globe, it's hard wrap your head around all of it. This is not the first time that Dracula is painted as a cold unfeeling monster, nor will it be the last I'm sure. However, he clearly says that he just wants someone to love. He's all alone in this miserable world and he finally finds someone who can be his light in this dark and dreary existence. Someone who he sees is miserable in her mundane life. He wants nothing more than to lift her spirits the same way she's lifted his. Dracula offers her happiness and love at his side but does she take it? No, instead she goes back to her broken family, to a lousy husband and ungrateful kids. Abandoning this poor damned soul, who truly needed and appreciated her and who would have laid the world at her feet. Pathetic.
it was ok overall as a nice family movie, but, it had potential to be much better.
As far as I can tell it's basically a good visual pleaser. Animation and character design is wonderful and at international standards of other animation studios like Pixar and co. The film has its problems with the dialogues and the storyline. Some puns don't work and other scenes are too short. Some characters don't get enough time to develop on their issues. Progress and family morals are forced on us and doesn't develop on its own. The original book of David Safier is better in terms of the story and background.
The movie is so bad if i could i would pit zero stars. I dont know what else yo say, its boring, not funny, cringey, and just bad altogheter. Sky screwed up on their first original movie.
