Blue Sky is back (Now under Disney's name) with their newest animated film, it's been two years since their last film Ferdinand, which I quite enjoyed even if it wasn't great, but now they are owned by Disney, I wasn't too sure how this upcoming animated film based on a short film will make any difference since they do release some unnecessary sequels to Ice Age, but I think with this new animated film with it's all star cast, who knows. maybe Blue Sky has finally made something different and something new to offer? the short film the film is based on called "Pigeon Mission" is pretty decent as a student project, though I have seen better short films but it's pretty decent either way, well I saw the film yesterday, which is even stranger when it was released on Boxing Day. how random. anyways I saw it and. OH, MY, GOODNESS, Blue Sky has actually made a legit pretty good film and I don't mean as in eye candy or noise or just for the sake of money, no I mean a really funny, stylish, epic, creative, new and enjoyable animated feature, but it still has a few of Blue Sky's natural cliches, so let's talk about it. Lance Sterling (Will Smith) is considered as the world's greatest spy, he's has stylish, charm, one liners and smooth moves, he can take out the bad guys just like that! however there is this even bigger villain named Killian (Ben Mandelsohn) who wants to kill every agent in the world using his M-9 droids, however with the tech geek Walter Beckett (Tom Holland) Lance will have to use a spy to avoid by a team of agents who are on the hunt for him, so. he is turned into a pigeon, he now has to get used being a pigeon until Walter makes a antidote to make Lance human again, yeeeah, this does sound quite dumb and generic, it's basically a Emperor's New Groove sort of film where our hero has to go through being a animal throughout the entire film, so you can guess how this film will end up, it has so many predicable and cliched moments that make the plot feel unoriginal, not only that but sometimes the humour can try too hard with it's toilet humour that isn't all that funny, however. with all that said, Troy Quine & Nick Bruno did put in a bit of effort with what they can do, they made the humour actually legit funny and clever, the film also makes fun of spy films in a silly but fun way, but it's also self-aware about what kind of film this is, it's also got so many action and creative scenes that there are too many to count from but they are very epic and interesting to watch, I was never bored or annoyed by it, the whole pigeon point of view for Lance is funny and amusing to see him suffer and somewhat enjoy his disguise form, making it silly but enjoyable to see, which is pretty refreshing and nice since most of Blue Sky's films are kind of all over the place and not all that funny, although it is dumb and makes no sense, the story does make up for it's unoriginal and pretty predictable plot, with it's clever parodies of other films, some self aware moments and with better heart, comedy and action, Spies in Disguise's story has a identity that can easily be recognised, but mainly thanks to it's directing and writing, the team at Blue Sky did the best they can with what they made and had fun with it. The animation from Blue Sky is still super strong and awesome! like the plot, there is a certain style to this animation, it kind of has this Incredibles look to it by how obscure and cartoon the characters look, however that is a good thing because the characters are nicely designed and how this very cool look to them, especially Lance, Walter, Kimura, Killian and even the pigeons, it's also incredibly beautiful and the locations are very interesting, along with a lot of creative and super epic action scenes that know how to be cartoony yet stylish, when it comes to it's visual comedy, that can also get super funny and fun, lots of Walter's gadgets are pretty creative and awesome, while also being silly! also the opening title sequence is so much like a Bond film with it's choice of colour and transition, usually Blue Sky's films are quite beautiful, but with this one, this one succeeds that part but it also a fresh new style that makes this stand out from the rest of their films, it's colourful, epic, stylish, colourful, humorous and a lot of fun to watch! so I'm happy that Blue Sky's animation style has a fresh look that makes this film has a visual identity, making it one of the coolest spy films out there. The characters are all memorable in how entertaining they are, unlike the last two Blue Sky films, they do balance the characters out decently, most of them getting the right amount of screen time, while others have fitting small roles, Lance Sterling is a pretty likeable and charming spy, he's super funny especially when he gets turned into a pigeon and trying to survive as one, I really enjoyed him and how he is portrayed, same can be said with Walter, he's pretty funny, helpful and at times can be relatable, the chemistry between the two is decent at best, it's pretty enjoyable but Sterling can be a bit unlikeable to Walter, the other characters are also fun and cool, like Killian, the big antagonist of the film who has a robo-hand, he's threatening, menacing and even has a cool design when he find out what his actual form is, i super enjoyed him, I'm glad he's not some dumb an stupid villain, he is very intelligent and villainous, Kimura (Masi Oka) is a funny and cool villain but he's not in the film for that long, Marcy (Rashida Jones) is cool and hilarious as the agent who is on the hunt for Sterling along with her two assistants Eyes (Karen Gillan) and Ears (DJ Khaled) they are not really villains as they do work for the same team as Lance, but later on. yeah you can guess the rest, the pigeons that accompany Pigeon Lance and Walter are funny silent comic reliefs who are also helpful! Lovey has a crush on Lance who hasn't got a thing for pigeons which is hilarious, Jeff is a cute big pigeon and Crazy Eyes is just bizarre and hilarious in how he will eat anything! although I'll admit sometimes a few of these characters can be a bit unless like Joy Jenkins (Reba McEntire) and Wendy Beckett (Rachel Brosnahan) who only serve as plot elements, who do may somewhat of a big comeback and a reason for our two heroes to do this journey, the voice acting is what saves these characters from being weak and forgettable, I mean I liked all of these characters, but the voice acting is really what saves these characters from being generic, Will Smith is excellent as Lance Sterling, he has that signature charming, charisma and comedy that makes him enjoyable as this spy, Tom Holland just likes Peter Parker when he is the voice of Walter, maybe if he just did his actual accident then his American accent, that would of gave his character a new identity, Ben Mendelsohn as Killian is creepy, threatening, quiet and evil, Mendelsohn sounds like he's having a blast as yet another villain, Rashida Jones always does good comedy and charm whatever character she voices like with Marcy here, Masi Oka is pretty good as Kimura who has a nice threatening voice that fits his character quite well, as for Karen Gillan and DJ Khaled as Eyes and Ears, they also good but they sound like too much like their actual voices, sometimes it can get distracting when you recognise their voices a little too often, but either way, they are still pretty good, the characters know how to be funny, memorable and charming, they can be threatening or they can sometimes mock some other well known spy characters like with Lance, Kimura and Killian, but along with some pretty solid voice acting, the characters are fun, cool and enjoyable then they have any right to be. Theodore Sharpio's score is fantastic, it does have a very James Bond feel to it in terms of how it sounds, it is a excellent score, as for songs made for the film like "Then There Were Two. Freak of Nature" are pretty awesome and fitting songs for the movie made and sung by Mark Ronson. Well. that was a nice surprise, a nice film to end off the 2010 decade and even the year but. this might be one of the better Blue Sky films in a long time, okay it's not quite as great as Ice Age or the Peanuts Movie, but it's better then most of the Blue Sky films out there, Spies in Disguise is a nice, refreshing, super funny and action packed film from Blue Sky, it has a engaging story with lots of comedy and action that blends well together, the animation is stylish, creative and colourful, the characters are charming and memorable, the voice acting is top notch and it has great music provided, yes it's cliched and sometimes the humour can be a little gross,if you need a film to see for the whole family, take them to see this, forget Cats and Rise of Skywalker, go see this great family film. I mean there is Jumanji: The Next Level, but this is better, well, I think Blue Sky might have a chance at making something better with their future now they are part of Disney, Spies in Disguise is a good start, so I hope for more awesome and great stuff from them! but all I ask is. PLEASE DON'T MAKE ANYMORE ICE AGE SEQUELS! please make more films like this! we need more films like this! be like Spies in Disguise, don't be like Ice Age 5. I'm going to give Spies in Disguise a 8.1/10.
