Good concept, poorly executed.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

Don't go into this without watching the original anime - its 100x better. The acting is so bad its funny and everyone is acting like they're in an anime, not a live action TV show. The editing is strange to say the least and the VFX look like a particularly good YouTube video. The sound design is like an anime. at one point Mob is wearing trainers, but when he walks it sounds like he's wearing horseshoes. I would recommend you get high/drunk and watch this with a friend because its bloody hilarious how bad it is.

Look I understand that anime vs real life could get a bit funky and sometimes it's a winner and sometimes not so much... I found this show to be quite well written, and especially well acted for a japanese (english sub) show.Good actors, laughed in many scenes as it is quite funny and fun to watch.

The troll to be original on an original...The story of the manga was amazing. The character development was fluid and correct. The insane drawing style was in a league of it's own, paired with an awesome introduction arc. Not a whole lot in this world is perfect, but Mob Psycho 100 comes very close. I, for one, can't wait to see what season 2 will bring us.On to the point of the review.
To be honest, I am never a fan of a life adaption of any game or anime/cartoon. There are some OK ones (NO WAY), some mediocre ones (Pushing it!), and those that we can't even get passed the first 20 minutes (yes... those ones). Netflix' adaption of the master piece Mob Psycho 100 hangs between the mediocre and the "can't handle the cringe no longer" section. I wish it was good..., I mean, I can handle it if the storyline get's tempered with. I don't care if some relationships are different, BUT... The characters got to stay true to themselves. If they do not, they loose their charm. Which is a huge chunk of what makes a show successful.
Why can't these writers just get that they can't have the main character do things he would never ever do in the original. Things so character breaking that you can't continue to watch it anymore. It's just painful at that point. To those that haven't read the manga or watched the anime. You still got a chance to find out whether it's worth watching on a rainy sunday. To those who read/watched the original: DON'T... Just, don't.Because it wants to be something else in a parallel universe I can't rate it in a proper way. I just cringe and cringe and cringe.5 out of 5 for the effort of the anime-like performances.
