Collider
'Shrek' is one of the most iconic titles that comes to mind when we think of DreamWorks animated films. Released in 2001, this film turned the fairy tale genre on its head by telling the story of an ogre who saves a princess and falls in love, officially establishing DreamWorks as a recognized brand. The witty writing of 'Shrek', its star-studded cast, sarcastic humor, and impressive music are just a few of the elements that contributed to its box office success.
However beloved and wonderful 'Shrek' may be, there is always room for something better. Fortunately, DreamWorks has many fantastic films that deserve just as much love as its main character. Ranging from hand-drawn productions to animated epics, these films challenge DreamWorks' green hero living in a swamp.
The animated heist film 'The Bad Guys' offers a sleek, sophisticated, and thrilling experience. Featuring the voices of Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Awkwafina, Craig Robinson, and Anthony Ramos, this animal crew is quite skilled at being bad. Recognized in the criminal world, these characters decide to change their ways to avoid prison time. However, once they get a taste of the good life, Wolf (Rockwell), Snake (Maron), Tarantula (Awkwafina), Shark (Robinson), and Piranha (Ramos) find it hard to return to their old habits.
'The Bad Guys' is an animated film that provides a perfect viewing experience for the whole family. Instead of relying on innuendo like 'Shrek', 'The Bad Guys' entertains adults with thrilling car chases and espionage scenes. Undoubtedly one of the best animated films of the past five years, 'The Bad Guys' carries undeniable charisma.
