Review Time

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful/shooting

I must get back to Earth: briefly; Victor Perkins [voice by Jason Segel:] he is a long-term rival of Felonious Gru and finds himself on the moon, he sets to work to get back to earth and this short project follows his attempts to achieve this. Meanwhile he is also joined by Stuart/Kevin/Bob [voiced by Pierre Coffin:] without giving too much away Stuart takes the easier approach to getting home and yes even offers its to Perkins.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing is good and straightforward as it only has roughly 9 minutes to work with.

Art, comedy, action, character developments and voice performances; as always from this franchise the art is highly engaging and easy to settle down with. The comedy and action mimic of something like out of Looney Tunes; Wile E. Coyote as in project Perkins in theory has all of these great ideas including his technical support, but likewise as in practice Perkins has a similar success rate as Coyote catching the Road Runner. For a brief example in this project; I like the old slingshot idea that Perkins has; in a nutshell he makes his suit have longer arms wrap them around some rocks and basically back up and say goodbye to the moon and then slingshot back to earth in theory; but in practice this does not happen and finally the character developments and the performances are all good.

This film receives: 9/10, this film is excellent; the only disappointing thing about this project is when this content was first dictated it has no awards accredited to it and based on my viewing experience, I would think it would get at least one from somewhere for being either animatedly pleasing or/and comical, in fact on reflection I have decided to award another mark, just because I like this style of comedy of you have this character trying to achieve something and as I have already indicated in theory it works, but in practice you may get a different result or results; based on how many times you try one thing, but then again full disclosure I have always loved Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote and likewise Tom, Jerry and Spike [the Dog;] individual shtick anyway.
