    Spy x Family = Average Family Film
    Being a fan of the show, I was eager to see the cinematic release of Spy x Family's first major film. The anime had a really nice blend of undercover action and clever slapstick that entertained both children and adults, and I was hoping that it would be further elevated in movie form. And unfortunately, that's not what I got here. While I had some good laughs here and there, I felt a bit underwhelmed by the story.

    At first it starts out pretty funny, with the Forgers going on a winter vacation in order to gather info for a school project. The animation is really expressive, the winter festival setting is relaxing, and there's plenty of great jokes. I think it's really interesting how similar the creator Tatsuya Endo is Twilight. At first, he didn't really like the characters he made, but overtime he started to form a connection with them. Similar to how the lonesome spy formed a connection with Yor and Anya. Battling his depression in a sense.

    It's the film's greatest strength and weakness. Because while it is a fascinating concept, it does make me a little sad that his passion project has yet to reach the big screen. Which is probably why the story feels a bit too basic. I very much doubt he was thrilled to work on this project.

    While the slapstick feels fresh, the narratively weak plot hurts the film a lot. With plenty of convenient encounters and plot holes. This is just another episode about stopping a villain from starting a war, only with better animation. Kids won't mind it too much, but adults may be a bit confused. How did Anya pay for that item? Who cares, she's getting kidnapped. And man, the way they tied up Anya in the third act made me really uncomfortable. Not that the gross out jokes were helping my mood.

    While I liked most of the jokes in this movie, the jokes involving Anya trying to avoid using the bathroom really stressed me out. They drag on for way too long. And in theater form, where the bathrooms are faraway from the screen, and people are hoping to just wait till the movie ends, it's pretty painful to watch. I came here for some laughs and exhilarating action, can we just stop whatever this is?

    And while the fight scenes in the climax are fast paced and really fun, I won't give too much away, I did wish the main villain had more depth than just being an evil general. The animation looks nice, but this feels like a film I would put on during hotel trips with all the weak set ups. I don't know if this film will inspire any kids, but for a family flick, it's best to watch at home, especially with a remote and a close bathroom. Personally I like the show a bit more, but if you're a fan of the anime, I doubt it would leave a negative impact on you. If you don't mind gross out humor or convenient plot points, you'll enjoy this fine.

    It was premier in Christmas but on April
    SpyxFamily is one those rare anime that make it unique n fun. From undercovering info job Lloyd a k a Twilight, assassin eyes wearing black dress for the kill Yor a k a Thorn Queen, forgot the mishiei Tp(telepathic) Annya with futuristic see all dog Bond.

    Forming the family with secrets the Forgers, with two seasons hiding bringing em there full length movie, that ye need be undercover to see it, with out killing nobody.

    The story was entertaining on how the Forgers go to trip just to taste a cake, for the principal of Annya, only to be involve in conspiracy of a general who wanna stard war very casual but at same time we explore the humor that the Forgers have.

    From Lloyd trying to get the recipe for cake in the market, to Yor doing her tsundere act suspecting there's infidelity involved that she got drunk to ve the answer, finally Annya always involving in some kind mischief to swallow a important tape that could star unexpected.

    The characters re riot been themselves but for me that always the star is little I can read yer mind Annya is her joy been involved in the mission of her parents n expression especially when is bathroom break were her shine.

    Ok I m of picture here I really love the anime, n the characters that making their first motion picture was awesome.

    The animation was standard trying new styles like Lloid fighting the general with yellow, red, blue tones giving that wild 60's looks, Yor doing her parkour moves fighting with cyborg, just defeating with chopstick, n well there's Annya stealing the movie with not wanting to go restroom. Did forgot mentioning the toilet dream sequences since when studio Ghibli was involved The setting was well built for a 60's cold war vibe to it, even giving more action when come to the style of the warplip n the action that follows.

    The soundtrack give it the suspense that any spy films has, but is more xited when we see the Thorn Queen doing her thing.

    So conclude the most fun have watching the Forgers doing what they do best just been secretly family with 90's family sitcom way, haven't seen the second season but something tells me is way funnier, enjoy the spectacle that film brings to OtakuHeads. Why say that there girls cosplaying Annya, so Tom Cruise better get adopted family.
