"A Masterpiece."
date: July 28, 2010
In my book, swearing's either gratuitous or funny. If it's funny, the amount doesn't matter. It took absolutely no deliberation on my part to come to the conclusion that the language in this movie falls in the latter (and more favorable) category.
"A New Bunny" is quick, shocking, and consistently uproarious. If you've got a minute, gaze upon the satire that TLG expertly serves up. This piece has a kind of historical significance; it accurately portrays, while at the same time lambasting, the "edgy" trend, which seemed to rise from its mid-90s grave in the mid 2000s.
There's not much to be said for the visuals, which are plain, but appealing. You're not going to see any jagged lines or small art mistakes, because the imagery is kept simple. However, in comparison the Bunny, the students look plain and almost uninspired. Still, their cartoon-ish appearance and the ludicrous pacing of the movie makes this something to be overlooked.
Perhaps the most shining characteristic of the movie is the voice acting: clear, crisp, and hilarious. Without the voice talents of the TLG team, the movie would have fallen flat. Even if the script did not change one iota, I'm confident not many voice actors could capture the cocaine-fueled scream-rants of the Bunny.
With just slight imperfections, "The New Bunny" is a shining beacon of solid comedy, a model example to those looking to shock and entertain.
9 stars.
