The Minecraft movie was pretty good. I took my son to see it and I wasn't expecting much and the trailers made it look like s***.

However, it doesn't deserve the hate it's been getting. There's some weird gay parts it seemed like like more like gay jokes not promoting homosexuality. I didn't feel they were necessary for a kids film. I don't know why they were in there. It's easy to kind of ignore them and this has been going on since they've been making movies for kids at all. Like I have a hard time finding a Disney movie where there's isn't something questionable in there so that's nothing new. 

The black chick in the movie she seemed like she was there for for no purpose other than her skin color. I do wonder like why not just make one of the kids black and cut this character out all together but maybe they had bigger plans for her and it just didn't work out when they filmed. There may have been scenes that would have utilized her more and better that were cut from the movie. So maybe she had a bigger purpose in the planning stages and it just didn't work out which happens sometimes unfortunately. 

And of course ignore the Minecraft fans. I'm Minecraft fan but I'm not going to be as harsh as these people are towards a movie for whatever reason. Anyway, I took my son to see it. It was a decent movie and don't be afraid to see it and don't let some of the reviews scare you away from seeing the movie.

It was a badly done movie but the source material was good enough to balance it out.

Yes fortunately many fans have ignored reviewers.

Jack Black is the draw. All of his movies are great humor.


Movie Year One was a favorite.  Good old testament Christian violence and other dumb non-sense portrayed with some integrity of morals.

That creates a generation gap.

Yes it was very silly for him to assume that Jack black a person nobody under 25 knows exists was the reason fans who are in the 16-24 range are flocking to the movie in droves

That’s a reference to a Minecraft YouTuber who succumbed to cancer.
