Boys Go To Jupiter is a Wonderfully Weird Ride For All

Review by The CriX Files

On Wednesday, my awesome boss sent me a link for an animated feature called “Boys Go To Jupiter,” written and directed by Julian Glander (Summer Camp Island). 

By Thursday, I had watched his feature film debut four times and am ready to buy it outright. 

Here’s why.

BGTJ follows Billy5000 and his friends as they navigate their way through another year in Floridian suburbia. Teenaged Billy5000 is on a tear after dropping out of school and taking a gig delivering for Grubster, as he wants to earn $5000 before New Year’s Eve so he can leave town. But his mission is constantly interrupted by his goofball friends (Beatbox, Peanut, and Freckles) an old classmate (Rozario Dolphin aka Rosebud), her mother (Dr. Dolphin), and the cutest gelatinous alien you’ll ever meet named “Donut’ (who reminded me of a squishmallow).

Paddington 2 Trailer Hits

Let's talk about a movie NO ONE give me a heads up about. The first Paddington Bear movie dropped onto Netflix with little fanfare and no one in my social media feeds losing their mind, so when I came across the title by accident, it was a complete mystery. Upon watching, I was very happy to find overwhelming charm, beautiful cinematography and an irresistibly sweet story (I would have said unBEARably, but we aren't those people.) Now...knowing what I know, I'm full on pumped for a movie that should really be something 4 year olds bug their mom to see on a Saturday afternoon. I'm owning it.

Following the worldwide hit “Paddington,” one of the most successful family films of all time, this much-anticipated sequel finds Paddington (Ben Whishaw) happily settled with the Brown family in London, where he has become a popular member of the local community, spreading joy and marmalade wherever he goes.
