they should have kept it on the small screen
17 August 2005
I'll admit it. I am an adult and I LIKE the Powerpuff Girls. It's a cute show and if my kids want to see it, I'll usually stick around and watch it, too. However, I was very worried about going to see this movie, as MOST TV cartoons translate terribly to the big screen. After seeing this movie, I found that my original thoughts were pretty much on target. The main problem is this--a 15 to 30 minute cartoon is fine, but stretching it and making it something it ISN'T is a very bad idea. If some Hollywood idiot ever thought about doing an Itchy and Scratchy movie, it would be the same--the momentum just CAN'T be maintained. My advice? Watch the Cartoon Network or buy one of their tapes made up of TV episodes.

PS--even my kids didn't like this movie!
