I watched this a while back, like, I think the Christmas before last, out of morbid curiosity, and I don't feel like rewatching the pissing Grumpy Cat movie just to write a review, so I'm entirely going from very vague memories here, but here goes. Since I can hardly remember it, I'll write this review as a list of assorted thoughts; 1. Idk if Aubrey Plaza is meant to sound bored all the time because, well, grumpy IS the name of the character she's playing, or if she's just genuinely bored to be in this shit, because, well, this IS the Grumpy Cat movie 2. There's a paedophilia joke towards the end. A euthansia joke at one point as well. Who are these jokes for? I can't imagine the type of person who would willingly and non-ironically watch a movie based on the Grumpy Cat meme but also has that edgy a sense of humour. 3. This movie has "if we use unfunny self-deprecating humour it makes up for the fact the movie is shit" syndrome. One of the most severe cases of such I've ever seen in a movie. The movie breaks the fourth wall to openly ridicule the viewer for watching it numerous times, and they even do a version of "merchandising" gag from Spaceballs, except not funny. 4. I can't believe we're at this low a level where it is accurate to state "Garfield without the charm" 5. The plot is precisely as jumbled and limp as one would expect from a feature film based on a funny picture of a cat 6. The tone is so confused. It's very cynical at times but so bland and inoffensive in style 7. Watching this film felt like watching a snuff film, in that I felt actively guilty for watching it. Of course, the real "Grumpy Cat" was already dead when I watched it so it's not like it would be able to get a sequel even if I had paid money for this (unless they pulled a Lassie and used a similar looking feline, but I think that ship has long sailed by now), but honestly this is such a blatant cash in, and literally open about that fact, I felt like I was taking part in it just by watching it. 8. More like Grumpy Cat's Worst Movie Ever amirite? Nah, there are worse movies, but I couldn't resist the low-hanging joke. All in all, a horrible experience of a film. Maybe I'll rewatch it this December and write a full review, but don't count on it. I may be depressed, but I'm not depressed enough to self-harm like THAT. Yeah fuck this shit. I mean it's the Grumpy Cat movie of course it's bad.
