SPOILER! My thoughts on the MLP Movie


RulesofRarity

814 views

So I saw the MLP Movie it was great, not perfect but certainly enjoyable. I'll get the negative things out of the way first:

  • I thought the Storm King and Queen Novo were pretty undeveloped and I certainly didn't like how Queen Novo was basically going to let Equestria rot. The Storm King should've had a bit more screen time to establish himself into a worthy threat a bit like how Discord's presence was felt during "The Return of Harmony".
  • The movie was too short, at least for my tastes.
  • I thought that little bear guy(the one that was with Tempest)was a bit obnoxious. I think little kids will like him though.
  • Once again, the princesses(bar Twilight) are useless. I have to wonder what's the point of these three if all they do is get captured. It's kinda embarrassing when we are told that their magic is really powerful, so powerful in fact that two villains have tried to steal it now.

Now that I've gotten that out of the way. On to the good stuff:

  • I loved seeing lots of the side ponies again, Moondancer and her friends, Cheese Sandwich, Derpy getting hit with that stone thing(kinda sad/adorable and this is coming from someone who doesn't like Derpy).
  • I also liked that the movie focused on the Mane 6 and Spike and that their ability to befriend people is what ultimately saved Equestria not any magical macguffin.
  • The Mane 6 were all in the character and all likeable, in my opinion. Fluttershy could've done a bit more but I loved her making that guard cry! :love:Rarity was amazing as always, absolutely loved her little duet with Spike during "We got this Together". Rainbow and AJ's friendly rivalry is great too! Pinkie in this movie was the most likeable Pinkie has been for me for a while, she wasn't obnoxious or an ear ache and I found her pretty funny. She got the most to do after Twilight, and I totally understood her anger at Twilight's lack of faith. Twilight for me was the best character in the movie, I got why she was so frustrated at everyone including herself. She's a princess, the pony people look to when things are tough. She doesn't want to let anybody down and I sympathize with that.
  • I liked the new characters. Tempest Shadow is the best character introduced in this movie! Her backstory, the way she talked, the way she moved, her redemption, everything about her I loved! Princess Skystar was adorable and Capper's voice was sexy.
  • The animation was stellar. If movie doesn't win an award for great animation something has gone wrong in life.

THE MUSIC:

Probably the best thing after the animation and the characters in this movie is the music. I didn't dislike a single song and so I have tip my hat to Daniel. If I had to rank the songs

  1.  Open up your eyes. Is without a doubt the best song in the movie. Emily Blunt is amazing, and Tempest's backstory(the whole reason I wanted to see this flim, I wanted to know why her horn was broken) did not disappoint.
  2. Rainbow. I totally forgot to write about Sia. Sia is in this movie and honestly her character didn't do much. She looked cute though and her song was great!
  3. Time to be awesome. Can Rainbow Dash sing more please? The eagle captain had a nice voice! That sonic rainboom looked stunning.
  4. I'm the friend you need. Capper's voice is so sexy. Props to Twilight for being only to see through his act.
  5. One Small Thing. Pinkie Pie is at her best when she's making people smile and I certainly smiled during this song.
  6. We've got this together. Rarity and Twilight's bits were the best.

Overall, the movie was good certainly not awful like some reviews I saw were implying. 10/10 would see again!
