Spycies (2019)
Bad Chinese propaganda
Some people say this is a zootopia cheap copy. Those people are wrong. Unfortunately, this movie is far worse than that.
The story starts with a duo that hate each other for no apparent reason and then love for no apparent reason.
The plot is filled with CPD (convinient plot device) after CPD, so obvious, that you don't even need to know what a CPD is to understand something completely random just happened to force the story forward, because the writers lacked the ability to make the story progress naturally.
But what annoyed me the most was the blatant Chinese propaganda in the form of ancient Chinese dragons and other events that clearly do not belong in the universe of the story but were forcefully introduced.
Horrible movie. Would not recommend.

Ronal Barbaren (2011)
Good overall funny movie with teenage/adult humor
This is the story of Ronald, a pathetic and weakling barbarian ... that (yes you guessed it) has to save his entire village from the evil lord Volcazar and from certain doom (actually, Volcazar and doom walk in hand in hand, but you get the point).
To achieve this Ronald decided to **not go on a quest** and save everyone with the help of his bard friend and shield maiden.
This is not a story for kids. The humor here is definitely for a mature audience, has multiple references to sex and cursing, but it is all actually funny and it doesn't feel like out of context.
The world is quite similar to the one in Brutal Legend (a world filled with demons that once enslaved mankind, and now everyone needs a hero), and the story can be seen as a cliché (the good guy is clumsy but saves the day).
The movie also tries to teach a life lesson (as in, you will always have problems and you have to face them), but other than that it is pretty much a linear movie.
It is a funny movie with good metal licks, specially in the ending. So if you are a metal fan, want to have a good laugh or feel like checking out a metal satire, feel free to see this movie.
If you don't fit in the previous category, than you are probably better of by leaving this one out.
