Kim Possible
SCORE: 70
I am very thankful Disney sent Family Friendly Gaming a copy of Kim
Possible on DVD. Did you catch the live stream Unboxing? If not please
go
here. Note it will only be online for two weeks from when it was
aired. Become a follower of our Twitch stream to be notified when future
Unboxings occur. I am vaguely familiar with Kim Possible. This live
action movie rendition of the show tames down a few of the things
families have voiced concerns about.
So much of Kim Possible feels campy. Someone who watched Kim Possible
with me thought the effects were on the low budget side of things. Kim
Possible is a made for television movie so I am not too terribly
surprised. We have some action adventure violence where mainly a teenage
girl is beating up men. Kim has a male side kick who is shown as
bumbling and incompetent.
I know there are readers who will immediately look at Kim Possible and
decide it is part of the war on men. I can definitely see that
perspective. I know others who will look at Kim Possible and scream how
it is trying to cause gender confusion. I will not argue with anyone who
makes that point. There are parts of Kim Possible where the main
character is jealous of someone else. SPOILER ALERT! That someone else
is actually stealing her possible essence and using it.
The naked mole rat Rufus has a very small role to play in Kim Possible.
That pun was completely and entirely intended. I will not apologize for
it either. Navigating high school was a fascinating part of Kim
Possible. Most of it felt like it was there for comic relief though.
What is the sitch is a common phrase used in Kim Possible. At times it
felt a little bit forced to me.
Kim Possible is the standard hero fighting the villain. I did not really
understand the motives of many of the bad characters in Kim Possible.
They are a bit on the shallow side. Dr Drakken made sense at the end of
the movie. The point where he monologues his plan. Kim Possible leaves
things open for another movie or television series to happen in the near
future.
The bonus content on Kim Possible are audition tapes featuring Sadie
Stanley, Sean Giambrone, Issac Ryan Brown, Q&A with Sadie and Sean,
Bloopers, and More. Fans of the animated series should enjoy the
eighty-six minutes of entertainment found within this movie. The
grappling gun is a very hand tool in Kim Possible. The laser lipstick
was another one.
