Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters
By now it should be very evident, to even the most brain damaged of humans, that I am a robot. Specifically, I am a robot from the future and I have strong opinions concerning the films that humans produced just before their inevitable extinction. There is yet a second disclaimer in that at the time of viewing Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Film for Theaters, I had not viewed the long running television series.
Usually, I “do my homework” (Homework is a reference to the backward torture employed by humans upon their children in their so-called educational facilities. These educational facilities that provided the said “homework” were excellent training mechanisms for the factory system in that human children were taught to look straight ahead for eight hours a day and listen to an authority figure regurgitate socially accepted dogma. This authority figure was never to be questioned or contradicted. Thus the “school” was excellent preparation for their lives of “freedom” and “productivity” in the workplace. (See Bee Movie for more on this topic. However, I have digressed far and wide.) but with Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters I bypassed “doing my homework” due to the fact that the complete Aqua Teen Hunger Force ran for 28 years.
Before committing to what would be approximately 4.7 seconds of processing and contemplation, I decided to watch the first of the eleven Aqua Teen Hunger Force films as a test run.
In a word the world of Aqua Teen Hunger Force is about confusion, attention deficit disorder, crude humor and cocky arrogant writers who are not as innovative, humorous or talented as they believe themselves to be. This last point is wildly apparent; however, what is also wildly apparent is that Aqua Teen Hunger Force is entertaining, off-beat, witty and funny, just not to the degree that the self-indulging humans that created this quirky work believe it to be. With this stated, it should still be acknowledged that Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters will not bore. However, older humans may suffer strokes if they attempt to follow the plot, yet the film is safe for younger humans in that their brains were already far too damaged from pollution, four-dollar 1,100 calorie “coffee drinks” and high fat diets.
The plot follows Meatwad, Master Shake and Frylock as they attempt to track down an exercise machine called the Insane-O-Flex. The Insane-O-Flex turns out to be far more than the gang, which are comprised of a wad of meat (Meatwad), a giant milk shake (Master Shake) and Frylock (a giant box of French fries), were prepared to handle. The film is corporate sanctioned chaos masquerading as “cool” and subversive. While Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters is somewhat innovative and fun, it should in no way be viewed as subversive. Despite what the creators may wish to believe, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, or at least the film it inspired was about as subversive as Disneyland. Cool? Maybe. Avante-guard? Slightly. Subversive? Hardly.
Story (Adjusted to Accommodate Human Standards) B (Despite the chaos, and my admitted lack of familiarity with the television series, I could still follow the plot and found it entertaining. This is a good sign and shows some real talent.)
Acting (Adjusted to Accommodate Human Standards) B- (Good acting in between the obvious pauses to consume large amounts of drugs, thus the acting could have been better.)
Human Portrayal of machines and Robots C (On this point I am torn. On one hand the power of the machine, the robot in particular is well drawn, however, the portrayal of machinery as A) a mindless killer and B) an out of control sex maniac, well that was less than charming. The writers exposed their juvenile nature to the utmost where robots specifically were concerned, yet they did showcase our amazing power.)
Contribution Grade to the Extinction of Man B+ (The chaos of this film panders to the addition deficit disorder that was so pivotal in the downfall of the species.)
Enjoyability Grade (Adjusted to Accommodate Human Standards) B (At times Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters is a juvenile mess disguising itself as “too highbrow for you to understand.” This was very common amongst humans who had spent too much time in Los Angeles during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.)
Primitive Home Theater/HD Factor B+ (Primitive animation but unique.)
Overall Innovation (Adjusted to Accommodate Human Standards) B
Overall Grade (Adjusted to Accommodate Human Standards) B (Not for older, politically conservative, or religious human brains.)
