Monkeybone receiving bad reviews

SUBMITTED BY Jenn M.

January 30, 2001 — Another review was published of Monkeybone, with major spoilers and equally major criticism of the film: Warning! Warning! A bomb is about to hit,and its called Monkeybone! Watch Brendan Fraser goof his way thru another lame comedy! See Bridget Fonda play another lifeless character! Laugh at Chris Kattan, the only funny person in the film, providing much needed life support! Groan at seeing Whoopi be death herself! Marvel at how the makers of Beetlejuice should sue for being so stylistically ripped off! Long for Roger Rabbit to appear and blow the lame Monkeybone monkey character away! Thank god that its been so many years between Cool World and this, and that itll be at least as many more years till the next crap film of this type is made! Monkeybone is an unfunny,unoriginal, uninspired time waster. Wait, want more info? Okay then. The film had no credits, so it just jumped into a cartoon for the Monkeybone tv cartoon show. The quality of the animation in this cartoon makes The Family Guy look like last years Tarzan. The cartoon has one real joke, a boy getting wood from an infatuation over his ugly teacher with massive amounts of skin hanging from her arms. After the cartoon we meet Brendan and Bridget. Brendan is the creator/artist of the Monkeybone strip which is now adding a cartoon show. His friend wants to capitalize on the show and sell Monkeybone merchandise. But as usual in these types of films Brendan doesnt want to sell out and earn all that money. You know, I bet thats how the studio that financed this film feels. Forget making any money from the grosses or from selling tie-in products, were in this film for the art! Um, yeah.anyway...
