The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist

February 6th! This was really good, I always thought The bad guys was a good movie, so these small movies they have made is amazing:3
37/365 movies watched

Rating: 5.7/10

This Halloween special is a marginal improvement over its predecessor but still falls short of the original film's magic. The haunted house heist premise is fun and seasonally appropriate, but the special is let down by a flimsy script, lack of charisma, and subpar animation.

Highlights
- Fun Premise: The haunted house heist is a creative concept for the gang, with some amusing moments and creative gags.
- Competent Direction: The direction is brisk, keeping the short runtime engaging with a handful of laughs.

Criticisms
- Weak Script: The screenplay is predictable and low-stakes, revolving around a simple prank war with juvenile humor.
- Lackluster Voice Cast: The replacement voice cast lacks the chemistry and charisma of the original lineup, making characters feel like hollow imitations.
- Disappointing Animation: The animation is a significant downgrade from the 2022 film, retaining a flat, generic look.

Verdict
The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist is a passable but forgettable 25-minute special, suitable only for very young fans.

Choppy animation, different voice cast, and although it’s just meant to be a short based on the movie, I still feel underwhelmed
