Hormiguitas, Eric Darnell y Tim Johnson, 1998
Si nos ponemos a rascarle a los clásicos de la animación por computadora, la verdad es que esta película es una joya oculta que se adelantó muchísimo a su época con una historia bastante madura y llena de cosillas políticas. La trama nos mete en el hormiguero de Central Park y nos pone en los zapatos de Z-4195, una hormiga obrera neurótica e inconforme que odia por completo esa idea de ser un simple engrane desechable dentro de una máquina colectiva gigante. El asunto se pone interesante cuando, por andar queriendo impresionar a la princesa Bala, cambia de lugar con su compañero el soldado de infantería Weaver y termina metido a la fuerza en una guerra sangrienta contra las termitas, descubriendo de paso un plan maestro bien macabro del general Mandíbula para exterminar a la clase obrera del nido.
Lo verdaderamente genial de esta entrega es el tono tan humano, cínico y conversacional que le dieron los directores, alejándose por completo del clásico cuento infantil de hadas para meterse de lleno a platicarnos sobre el existencialismo, el valor del individuo y la manipulación social. Los diálogos son una belleza porque se sienten como una plática de café sobre las ideas Sociales o de Sigmund Freud, pero explicadas con monitos tridimensionales y chistes muy ingeniosos sobre la terapia psicológica y la huelga laboral. Visualmente, el equipo logró crear un ambiente subterráneo sumamente imponente, jugando con luces cálidas, texturas de tierra muy realistas y secuencias de acción brutales que de verdad te hacen sentir la opresión del entorno y la inmensidad del mundo exterior.
Ver esta joya de nuevo nos recuerda que los buenos guiones no necesitan suavizar la realidad para conectar con el público de todas las edades. Es una recomendación perfecta para pasar la tarde porque nos regala una aventura divertidísima que, debajo de sus pixeles de finales del siglo XX, nos deja pensando un buen rato sobre la importancia de pensar por nosotros mismos y cuestionar a las autoridades que nos quieren uniformados y callados.

*Dog Man* (2025).
Like several other #DreamWorks animated films, the premise is too ridiculous for me, so not even its self-awareness eases the annoyance. Li'l Petey *almost* saves it with his adorable innocence and effect on everyone around him, but the other characters, the pacing and especially the climax are just irritatingly insane.
My rating: 30%. -

*Ruby Gillman: Teenage Kraken* (2023).
I *hated* it! The opening establishes nothing before bombarding you with incessant nonsense; it's so fast-paced and brash that it's infuriatingly obnoxious. That rapid-fire insanity persists, with some brief glimpses of brilliance buried beneath terrible dialogue, and I'm not buying for a second that people accept the krakens as human.
My rating: 20%. -
*Captain Underpants: The Epic First Movie* (2017).
Just as immature as the title suggests, yet so imbued with childlike glee that it's hard to dislike. It embodies the comics designed by its young protagonists, from the art style and energised animation to the mostly crude but sometimes genuinely funny jokes… and, unfortunately, some blatant lapses in logic.
My rating: 55%. -

Next in my #Dreamworks marathon is *The Boss Baby 2*. But first, here's my review of the original, which I've seen before.
*The Boss Baby* (2017).
It's a theoretically funny idea, and I love the mix of art styles during Tim's fantasies. But once the main conflict's introduced – puppies stealing babies' attention and love – it becomes too silly to be funny. Therefore, while it sometimes makes good use of established plot elements, it's never fully captivating.
My rating: 50%. -
Next in my #DreamWorks marathon is the *Trolls* trilogy. Once again, I've seen the first movie before, but the sequels were new to me. I'll attach my reviews of all three as replies here.
-
*Penguins of Madagascar* (2014).
It has its moments, like recurring puns involving Dave's henchmen's names, but it continues the *Madagascar 3* trend of being too insane for its own good. I can accept the animals using and even repairing machines, but high-tech gadgets, buildings and an advanced secret agency is officially going too far.
My rating: 35%. -
*Mr Peabody & Sherman* (2014).
I haven't seen the show, but quite enjoyed this movie regardless. The jokes are consistently funny, while the dramatic moments are standard but tolerable, except for a pivotal scene that feels *very* forced. The opening, I assume, summarises a typical episode of the show, and the climax is a blast.
My rating: 65%. -
*Turbo* (2013).
It's mostly just dull, with bland characters and an unremarkable message. Aside from the ridiculous premise, there are some notably stupid moments, like Theo's speed and other car-like abilities coming from simple nitrous oxide, and it's so ham-fisted with its message that Theo and Tito's brothers are brutally, unreasonably discouraging.
My rating: 35%. -

Next on my #Dreamworks marathon is the recent *Megamind* sequel. But first, here's my review of the original, which I've seen before.
*Megamind* (2010).
What starts as a superhero parody becomes something else entirely. Analysing what makes a hero or villain is not a novel idea, but it really works here because of how much you like and understand the characters. It's well written, funny, and satirising society's expectations is part of the story.
My rating: 80%. -
*Monsters vs. Aliens* (2009).
I like how all the main cast is inspired by 1950s movie monsters, and there are a few scattered laughs (mostly from quick references), but the characters are pretty bland, therefore so's the movie. Gallaxhar is a pathetic loser but also supposed to be a credible threat; it doesn't work.
My rating: 55%. -
*Bee Movie* (2007).
An unbearably stupid premise, although not at first. It starts out pretty strong, with a barrage of genuinely funny puns and brilliant flying shots that emphasise the bees' speed. But once Barry engages with the human world, it immediately plummets downhill; everything that follows is too absurd to be funny.
My rating: 35%. -

Is any of the #liveAction / #photorealistic #remakes of #animatedFilms by #Disney, #Dreamworks and the like any good, or are they the equivalent of the low-quality #sequels to successful titles (often recycling the same story with the protagonists' children taking their role) they used to make when I was a kid?
I don't think I have watched any of them since Alice in Wonderland in 2010. -

Just saw #HowToTrainYourDragon for the first time.
I see why this is considered the best #DreamWorks #film.
Although I am still more partial to #KungFuPanda.
