The Bad Guys is, in many ways, a fairly typical animated family movie. It’s got a group of charming and snarky talking animals, a bright animation style, fast-paced and physics-defying action sequences, and more than a few jokes that will only work on audience members between the ages of 2 and 10. But The Bad Guys is also a crime comedy in the same vein as Ocean’s Eleven, a film that definitely doesn’t qualify as “family-friendly,” if only because it “condones” criminal behavior.
Round up the usual suspects Directed by Pierre Perifel and written by Etan Cohen, The Bad Guys focuses on a group of anthropomorphic animals who have come to accept their place as the go-to villains of most stories. There’s Mr. Wolf , Mr. Snake , Mr. Piranha , Mr. Shark , and Ms. Tarantula , all of whom bring their unique skills and personalities to their eccentric crime outfit.
The flaws in the plan It’s when the film’s titular crew are under Marmalade’s watchful eye that The Bad Guys comes dangerously close to falling apart. The tests that the characters are put through in the film all come across as uninspired, and Cohen’s script never takes the concept as far as it could. Fortunately, the film doesn’t spend too much of its runtime on The Bad Guys’ stay with Marmalade, and quickly brings it to an end with an effective, if obvious, twist.
