The Mitchells vs the Machines update feed
"First viewing - July 7th I've heard a lot about this movie, even from my daughter who watched it a few times the weekend it dropped and then came to me asking if she could watch it again with me. I didn't have Netflix at the time, however, so we couldn't do that. And now that I've got Netflix she's seen it enough times she said I could watch it without her.

“Following the debacle around ‘America: The Motion Picture’, I thought I might as well check the other animated feature produced by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller also released on Netflix this year.

It even has lousy product placement and boring color palette similar to Emoji Movie. Oh, and the Finnish dubs suck ass.
