Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.
Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Archie, Jughead, Betty and Veronica are back in this enjoyable animated film of about 75 minutes. Imagine Jugman, a prehistoric neanderthal and distant relative of Jughead himself. The film is preposterous in its plot but it's overly entertaining and enjoyable. They're just like watching old friends.
Hi. I thought I'd comment here now that I've seen the movie. As for this being a follow up to 'Archie's Weird Mysteries,' I don't know. The voices were the same, but the animation was different. Why was Pop black? Why was Midge a redhead? In AWM the characters looked pretty much how they were supposed to. Also Reggie was a bit out of character. We all know that he's sneaky and devious, but here he was portrayed as being evil. It seems like he crossed the line here. They could have used a more convincing villain like maybe that character in the "Teen Out of Time" trilogy. It seems like the people who worked on this haven't seen the show or read the comics. But for the movie itself it was well-written and very enjoyable. I'm just hoping that the next animated Archie movie that comes out won't have as many continuity problems.
It was kind of a movie of the Archie's Weird Mysteries series. It was really good i really liked it. It had a cool story involving a cave man who looked like Jug Head and got him into trouble and all the gang was in it. A very good Archie movie. I hope they make another movie or at least another series.
