Hop (2011)
5/10
Weakest Illumination Film (So Far)
18 April 2022
I know there's people that say Minions is worse, but I thought that film was just okay. In fact, at least I take that over this. Hop is by far, the weakest movie from Illumination. Yeah, it has some good ideas its going for, some good animation that brings Easter to life and actors that have a decent amount of effort. But considering this is from the creators that brought Alvin And The Chipmunks, the story is lazily predictable. The tone tries to be modern for the young crowd making it outdated. The humor is mostly weak. The characters feel they aren't something for an Easter movie. And the ending was highly childish. The one thing I can recommend this is for the children for Easter time. As for anyone else, I think it's best to stick with the Sonic The Hedgehog movie from 2020. It may have the same plot line as this, but at least a good version. The idea sounded great of something like one of those Christmas specials, but the movie itself is just easily mediocre. Maybe one day we'll get a good Easter movie, but this is not really it. Happy Easter.
