Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe beginning of this film mirrors the beginning of Pulp Fiction (1994) where two characters are sitting opposite one another in a diner having what seems to be a rather idle conversation, before revealing that both characters are actually on the verge of launching into a robbery.
- GoofsDiane Foxington wears a piercing in her left eyebrow. Later in the movie she talks about her past, when she tried to steal the dolphin statue; when she was holding it, her body was mirrored in the security glass. In the close shot of her mirrored face, the piercing is on the right eyebrow instead of the left one.
- Crazy creditsThe DreamWorks logo has Mr Wolf climb to the moon with his grapple gun and take the fisher boy's place.

Featured review
An animation gem!
So, it looks to me that the Bad Guys was influenced by the anime Lupin the third. Makes perfect sense, so many animated movies and series are. Sam Rockwell's Big Bad Wolf is a total play on this. Although I did notice that Disney's Seeing Red has a similar look so it looks like anime is getting even more intergraded in everything. I'm good with it!
The actual story is by the numbers. These animated features love the idea of teaching children to think outside the box and rising above what the world thinks you are, in a movie that's story arch could not have been more obvious if they tried, but that animation was so good that I'm too focus on it to care.
It's a good ensemble cast of characters. The Wolf, the Shark, the Tarantula (Played by Awkafina, a fav in this movie, just really cute), the Parana, and the Snake. It was a good crew and it's kind of great how the character and the voices all gel together.
But really, I can't stop talking about the animation. Its realty worth it to watch things unfold. Lots of good kinetic energy, the moving pictures never slow down and consistently lively throughout. Flawless.
Thumbs up.
