Quarantine Watch #13: Kim Possible (2019)

Ever since Disney+ came out I’ve been rewatching the fantastic animated series KIM POSSIBLE. Last year they made this Disney Channel Original Movie (DCOM) based on the series. I had a friend tell me they had one of the worst experiences watching it. I’ve gotta say I didn’t hate it. There are things I thought didn’t work: I didn’t care for Sean Giambrone’s performance of Ron including his lisp (which I don’t know if is real or something he added for the character), the introduction of the Athena character, and some of the props — however it was a lot of fun. I was afraid they wouldn’t be able to be able to nail the type of fight moves the cartoon had, but they did a good job. I loved that Patton Oswalt reprised his role of Professor Dementor and the actress who played Shego actually channelled Nicole Sullivan’s personality. The casting of the supporting players is also on point including Alyson Hannigan and Connie Ray as Kim’s Mom and Nana respectively. The girl who played Bonnie was also just like the cartoon which I appreciated. If they make a sequel, I’d watch it. This was fun.
