I wish I could sayA Minecraft Moviehad any of these things besides the adventure part.
That speaks to the films lack of character depth.
When it does make an appearance, the dialogue is too on the nose.
There are occasionally fun moments, but what the film ultimately lacks is heart.
Even the comedy is missing.
There wasnt a single good joke in the entire film, and I usually enjoy Jack Blacks humor.
It all felt so forced, an amalgamation of Hollywoods worst adaptation tendencies.
It was more of a chore to get through than it was actually enjoyable.
Its bright energy and endless creativity contrasts greatly with the Nethers darker aspects.
Rachel House is having a great time as the villain.
The actress really leans into the nonsensical aspects of her character and gives the film some much-needed vitality.
The film is occasionally engaging when Malgosha is onscreen and her final interaction with Blacks character is a highlight.
And whileA Minecraft Movieis aimed at kids, it couldve treated its audience with a bit more respect.
