Review:

Teen Titans Go! To the Movies is exactly what you would expect if you gave the regular crew of the show an hour an twenty minutes and access to a Hollywood Rolodex of B, C, and D-List actors. It's incredibly stupid (in a good way, I guess?) with multiple fart/poop jokes and an incredibly simple story that takes too long to come together. If you've ever seen Family Guy, you are familiar with how they spend 7-10 minutes of there 23 minute run time to get to that the episode is actually about. They begin with farting around with scenes that have nothing to do with the episode and setting up three of four plot threads that they aren't going to follow before we get to whatever lunacy the episode is actually about. Teen Titans Go! To the Movies spends too much time establishing the plot, which is meager in itself, so we don't really get to spend enough time with it. What saves the movie, is how goofy and free it is too play around and make sun of the genre. I disagree with some of the casting choices, as it seems that for most of them, they just wanted another recognizable name on the marquee. Since nobody in the entire Teen Titans Go! universe is like their real comic book counter-parts, Nicolas Cage as Superman was fun, but why the heck is Lil Yachty John Stewart (and why is John Stewart the only human Green Lantern? Where is Hal?) and what moron thought Halsey should voice Wonder Woman? Wil Wheaton has never had a good performance in any medium and you get Tom Kenny on the payroll and you give him a random robot to voice? But I guess it works within the "wild and wacky" world of Teen Titans Go!. I loved all the small references to DC properties and most of the big ones were fairly clever. For what it is, Teen Titans Go! To the Movies, is a surprisingly funny, occasionally clever, and consistently entertaining film. It's certainly not going to be held up favorably against any live-action super hero film, but that's not really what it's trying to be. Teen Titans Go! To the Movies isn't really a super hero movie; it's a solid goofy kids animated movie who's characters are super heroes. I wish they had spent the money they used on stunt casting to make either a longer movie or at least a more focused one, but it's not a bad way to spend eighty-something minutes.

Whoops, looks like something went wrong.
