Monster High: Escape from Skull Shores

( Skip the first paragraph if you only want the review ) On my quest of re-watching every Monster High Movie and Tv show, This was the first one I choose to watch. Ever since I was six years old I've loved Monster High, lucky my Dad was a chill parent and didn't care that Monster high ( a franchise made for girls ) was my favourite thing, now moving on to the review. I believe MH: Escape from Skull Shores is one of the best ones, the animation and graphs are quite dated since it was released ten years ago. But the message is pretty simple, Don't judge people on their looks basically. This movie also fuels the fan theory that Frankie was made of different parts. ( The theory is actually confirmed in the new live action movies. ) I digress, If you need a light-hearted kids movie with a good message, I would recommend this film!

There is nothing really bad about this film, but there also isn't a single aspect that makes this movie worth the watch or particularly memorable. We are in a great era for animated films right now with Pixar being top of the really strong competition, but with much quantity, there's also always films that do not deliver. "Escape from Skull Shores" is one of these. I see there are more of these "Monster High" movies that run for under an hour and this one here is the first I saw. And because of the lack of quality, it's probably also the last. The animation is really mediocre, in terms of characters, but also setting. The story is never convincing in terms of romance, drama and, the worst, comedy. I never thought this was a funny movie and there wasn't a single scene that had me laugh. I see that this is a film primarily aimed at teenage girls, but this is not a movie that the next generation of cinephiles should grow up with watching. Not recommended.

Yet another intriguing Monster High movie. And another one that keeps you interested throughout. I loved it!

Surprisingly, I really enjoyed this movie! Every part was exciting and fun. The story, and the characters plots, were all interesting. I felt connected to each character and even laughed at some moments. This movie was definitely much better than the last few.
