Osmosis Jones Reviews

Osmosis Jones isn't the funniest movie I have ever seen, but it is very clever and has an original concept. The humour is crude I agree, but it is actually amusing- the script does have its witty and amusing parts. The animation is not too bad either, certainly a unique style of animation, the backgrounds are nice and the characters have interesting features. And the music is very good as well. As I've said already, the concept is very original and the equally original and well written story(even with one or two predictable parts) does justice to that concept. Also, I liked the characters, Ozzy and Drix are likable and what they get up to is intriguing, fun and often unpredictable, Thrax is a great villain and the voice acting from Chris Rock, Laurence Fishburne, David Hyde Pierce, William Shatner and Bill Murray is top notch. Overall, clever, original and entertaining. 8/10 Bethany Cox

To be honest, I have never been a fan of the Farrelly brothers’s work. Indeed, I completely despised ‘Dumb & Dumber’ and I really didn’t like much ‘There’s something about Mary’. Last time, I saw one of their last movies, ‘Hall Pass’, and it wasn’t really good either. Still, they made a couple of good movies and I have noticed that I above all enjoyed their more obscure movies like this one for example. First of all, I really loved the concept. Indeed, the Farrelly brothers usually have a concept in their comedies but most of the time this concept is just lame or doesn't attract me whatsoever. Not this time though. Indeed, I thought it was pretty neat to go inside someone's body with some wacky animated figures. On top of that, you get to go inside Bill Murray's body which was again a pretty far out idea. So, it was quite an ambitious project but, of course, they had to dumb down the whole thing somehow so it was nothing really amazing but I thought it was quite intriguing and pretty entertaining. The animation was also decent without being really mind-blowing. To conclude, even though it was nothing amazing, I think it is a pretty good and original animated feature and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you are interested in the Farrelly brothers’s work.
