Major Lazer Audience Reviews

TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
conradbasom I was blown away by the first episode and the hits kept coming. This show makes me want to get up and dance among other things (smoke the ganja). Each episode is super short but has just enough time to present a problem, drop some sick beats, and save the day. I know it's a bit of an exaggerated Jamaica, but the blend of past and future culture is done beautifully. And then there's the cast. Their voices really bring the characters to life and when I looked them up I was presently surprised by Blkmrkt (it's Finn, John Boyega). I couldn't imagine any other voice for President Whitewall (J.K. Simmons), I've been a fan of his for a long time and could recognize his voice immediately. I hope that they make a bunch of seasons and I think the characters have strong enough bases to back it up. Raspect!
ccowap The show certainly panders to a very specific audience; that being those currently taking rips in their basement. And while the show is best honestly best enjoyed under the influence, it's undeniable that its charm breaks through any pre-supposed barrier upon viewing. The episodes are short and sweet, only 10 minutes each, and they all follow the same formula. But clever writing still manages to steal the show, seamlessly tying together ironic clichés and vibrant visuals with wonderful characters and enthralling villains. While there is clearly an attempt to capture the nostalgia of 1980's Saturday cartoons emphasized by the grainy filters evoking the visual of VHS tapes and Retro-futuristic tech, the show moves beyond that quickly, abandoning the War on Drugs slogans of old to present something with a completely separate visual and narrative style.
criticizeeverything This show forms part of Animation Domination,a late night series of cartoons that are often enough bizarre.This is probably the most bizarre of them.The show is about a real life music producer from Jamaica named Major Lazer.Apparently,he is in the future,where various villains rule the world.It's up to him (and several supporting characters) to defeat them.Yeah...you could say Major Lazer in the show is a over the top rendition of him,where he is a silent,confident badass with amazing combat skills.The plots are very simple and over the top,with some attempts at character building and several action sequences.It is hard to truly evaluate if the writing in the show is either "so bad it's good" or just bad.You'll notice off the bat how the writing is very flawed in many aspects,but often enough,this isn't really a big problems.It almost looks like it's trying to play tribute to cheesy 80's action cartoons.Yeah...your appeal to the show depends on your tolerance to intentional badness and cheesy writing.The animation and artstyle is great.I'm really into trippy and colorful imagery,so it appeals to me.Even if you're not too into druggy imaginery,the actual animation looks pretty good,so it deserves some credit.Considering Major Lazer is a music producer,music is given some considerable attention through the show.I'm not an avid Major Lazer fanatic,but for the most part,the music sounds nice.Once again,it might not appeal to everyone.The voice acting...is much like the show's writing.If you noticed,the whole show is based on your appeal and tolerance for the way it is.For me...it is a decent cartoon.A 7 out of 10.Your opinion could be very different...and understandably so.
