The Flintstones is brand that like it or not hasn't been relevant since the 1980's and WWE is company that hasn't been relevant since the late nineteen nineties. So when WWE announced that they were making a crossover movie with The Flintstones is was a little bit excited since I am a fan of both properties however I had the same the question that alot of you might have right now reading this review and that's why and so then join me as I review the film that is just quite simply utterly really pointless with the film in question being called simply just "The Flintstones & WWE: Stone Age Smackdown!" enjoy.
The plot of this film is Fred wants to raise some money to take his family on vacation and so starts charging people money to let them watch fights. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad since this films plot does do a pretty decent job of incorporating The Flintstones world and the world of the WWE however the plot itself just isn't that entertaining or even engaging for that matter in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this film is Jeff Bergman as Fred Flintstone and Kevin Michael Richardson as Barney Rubble. Also starring in this film is Tress MacNeille as Wilma Flintstone , Grey Griffin as Betty Rubble , Russi Taylor as Pebbles Flintstone , Eric Bauza as Dino , Hoppy and Bamm-Bamm Rubble , John O'Hurley as Mr. Slate , Brie Bella as Brie Boulder , Nikki Bella as Nikki Boulder , Daniel Bryan as Daniel Bryrock , John Cena as John Cenastone , Mark Henry as Marble Henry , Vince McMahon as Mr. McMagma , Rey Mysterio as Rey Mysteriopal , CM Punk as CM Punkrock and The Undertaker as Himself.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad. With all of this films cat turning in the best performance that they can do however the issue is that this films script gives the cast nothing to work with interms of what their characters personality is and that does affect the performances in this film.
Doing the animation for this film is the little known studio that is known simply as Yearim Productions Company. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual animation that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty not that bad but at the same time tho alot of the characters are given these really big pupils which are very off putting.
For some strange reason this film seems to think that having Wilma in a bikini is something that we all want to see. Which just doesn't seem right since this is a film that's aimed at little kids and so having a character appear in very revealing clothing just isn't appropriate since this isn't something that little kids should be seeing and as such isn't something that should have been in this movie at all an why the makers of this film chose to include it in this film really is well and truly beyond me since it's not something that little kids should be seeing.
Even tho he'd been well and truly released by the WWE at this point CM Punk features quite alot in this film. This was only done because the film was good as well finished at the time when CM Punk was released and so then having him dropped or even giving him a reduced role in this film would have caused this film to have quite a big delay and so he was pretty much forced to still be in this film and if your a wrestling fan like me you'll find it to be pretty funny that CM Punk is the main villain of this film.
The classic characters in this film are treated so badly with all of them being given one personality trait with Wilma being reduced to nothing more then a nagging wife and Fred , Barney and Betty are all the dumb one of their friend group. This isn't true to their original characters at all since in the original series Wilma was smart and funny whilst Betty was more of a traditional housewife and while Barney and Fred weren't always smart they always had street smarts while Barney would often show feats of intelligence none of which is shown or even hinted at in this very film that is.
Now then this film has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly fifty one minuets and forty five seconds. Which does make this film the shortest of these weird Hanna-Barbera and WWE crossover films which is a shame because this film really did have alot of story to cover more then this running time and as such this film really should have been at the very least one hour and thirty minuets since that would then allow you to fully develop all of your main characters which would go a long way to making this film alot better then what it actually already is.
So now then since this is a comedy that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was in all honesty pretty bad. With alot of this films "jokes" just being not that funny which is a shame because the one thing that you expect a comedy to be is funny and when you fail at telling even one good joke then your films already failed in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall yeah this film is quite easily one of the worst if not the worst Hanna-Barbera and WWE crossover films since it doesn't respect either property at all but that's what you get when you hire scriptwriters Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very film earns itself a grand old score of exactly a 5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official The Flintstones fandom wiki page , the official The Jetsons fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official The Flintstones fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on the official The Flintstones fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly freaking high in definition.
