'Nimona' is a spectacular triumph — a heartwarming story with unforgettable protagonists. While other big animated studios have taken small steps to address LGTBQ topics, Annapurna Pictures takes a giant leap with a marvelous inclusivity story that will become a queer classic. Nimona and Ballister's ordeal represents the struggle of an entire community being bullied or pointed at all the time; their frustration and hiding reflect the failures of a system that has taught us since we were little that marginalizing or making fun of others because of what they are is ok. This is the kind of movie that kids out there need to be watching; a beautiful way of showing them that they're not monsters because of not being like others. I will be mad if this doesn't get an Oscar nomination next year.… Expand

First off, *I* loved this movie, but it’s not for everyone, so before watching it determine if it’s a good fit for you. Eg. Mischievous girl/shapeshifter, gay men who hold hands and kiss briefly (nothing overly sexual at all), censoredFirst off, *I* loved this movie, but it’s not for everyone, so before watching it determine if it’s a good fit for you. Eg. Mischievous girl/shapeshifter, gay men who hold hands and kiss briefly (nothing overly sexual at all), censored swearing, metaphors for being, idk, queer? Look, if you’re not comfortable with that stuff you won’t want to watch this, but for most people it won’t be an issue, and most of the movie doesn’t focus on these things anyway. A lot of the movie consists of silly, lighthearted jokes or comical violence, all centered around a plot where someone killed a royal, framed the knight, and then this outcast shapeshifter finally found someone she can relate to (not a spoiler, this was in the trailer). The girl’s too eager to cause violence and the knight needs to constantly reel (probably a metaphor for society telling queer people they’re being to “loud”), but he’s just trying to help and they care about one another. It’ a bit lowbrow at times, but the movie knows this, the point is there’s a deeper message and they (the crew making the movie) are having fun with it, so try and relax and you’ll probably have a great time. The animation style isn’t always notch, shadows are a bit inconsistent scene to scene, but I’ve seen this style before done cheaply, and this wasn’t bad, this seemed to be a product of love and it’s totally ok. Got unexpectedly teary eyed near the end, but that’s spoiler territory so I won’t say anything. All-in-all I’m very glad I watched this movie and would recommend people Consider watching it. Figure out if it’s something you think you’d enjoy and go from there. If you’re uncomfortable with gay representation, questioning tradition, questioning patriotism, comical violence, etc, then simply pass on this one. (Again, I loved it, big thanks to those who made it!)… Expand

As a "film" it is very enjoyable. It does feel a little rushed, and another 20 mins would have done the film a world of good, but considering this movie was apparently resurrected from the Disney graveyard, it's hard to complain.

So many people will talk about the "important message" of the movie, which is increadibly important and more or less true. But don't be fooled thinking this movie is simply about "value messaging". The movie is super fun, and my daughter and I enjoyed it immensely. I will also so say this is the first animated movie I have watched that treated a gay character/couple like a straight character or couple. There is absolutely nothing heavy handed or self-aware. Just two completely normal people doing completely normal things. Which is the way it should be.

A Netflix tem se destacado nas animações bem mais do que em filmes considerados mais "adultos". Se ano passado tivemos produções como "Apollo 11 e 1/2" e "A fera do mar", novamente a produtora mantem a qualidade principalmente pelo roteiro.A Netflix tem se destacado nas animações bem mais do que em filmes considerados mais "adultos". Se ano passado tivemos produções como "Apollo 11 e 1/2" e "A fera do mar", novamente a produtora mantem a qualidade principalmente pelo roteiro.
Confesso que achei o visual apenas ok, está bonito em sua maior parte do tempo, com tonalidades eficientes (por exemplo, o reino bem clean, os flashbacks mais escurecidos, as cores e traços diferentes da Nimona), mas por vezes lembra cenas de videogames como os jogos do Zelda. Não chega a ser um demérito, já que Zelda é uma linda produção.
Mas seu maior destaque, além dos personagens principais muito bem construídos e a química entre eles, vai mesmo para o roteiro, incrivelmente bem trabalhado (apesar de alguns furos e concessões, como facilidade de acesso a certos lugares). Nimona é uma garota, mas também assume diversos corpos e seres, e acaba se aproximando do cavaleiro plebeu aspirante a entrar pra guarda real, que fora objeto de uma armação justamente no dia em que se apresentara à rainha. A cereja do bolo é que ele: [spoiler] assume um romance gay com outro guarda, mas dado os acontecimentos teve que fugir, então seu enamorado fica na encruzilhada entre caçar o seu amor ou confiar nele para enxergar que, na verdade, trata-se de uma vítima. [/spoiler] É um filme que envolve muitas camadas, desde questionarmos o poder das instituições a tradições ou de questionar a ascensão de um plebeu à corte. As camadas sociais e os estigmas impostos pela sociedade vão ditando as visões que aquele ambiente tem da corte e dos guardas, construindo narrativas distorcidas do real e muito próximas do que o capitalismo prega.
E, claro, o papel de Nimona no filme acaba também dialogando com essa espécie de "outsider", termo usado por Norbert Elias para dar conta de grupos excluídos socialmente, mas não apenas transformados em marginais, mas postos num local inferior para mover a engrenagem do sistema.
É justamente esse o ponto chave e mais interessante do filme, perceber que as narrativas que inferiorizam o outro são funcionais para manter o sistema em pé, ou seja, não é apenas excluir o outro, é inferiorizá-lo para ressaltar a estrutura social da elite. Veja, por exemplo, as falas da diretora que assumira o posto da rainha, sempre dotadas de um ar de superioridade que se antagoniza ao outro inferior, utilizando-se de certo pânico social contra a classe menos favorecida para manter seu status. Qualquer semelhança com o discurso fascista não é mera coincidência.
Aliás, quando o pensamento mais progressista chama a atenção para a diferença de classes ou de identidades, o que se quer mostrar é que essas diferenças são usadas pelos conservadores de modo a segregar pessoas, e o que se quer é justamente acabar com os preconceitos, que, afinal, isolam as pessoas. É tocante diversos momentos chaves do filme em que Nimona transparece a sua solidão e tristeza imposta por esse mundo de julgamentos. Logo, ao contrário da direita conservadora que fala que o discurso da diversidade separa as pessoas, é justamente ao contrário, o discurso pela diversidade tenta uní-las, pois a realidade das sociedades já cumpre esse papel de exclusão, as instituições, por motivos históricos e culturais, já criaram seus monstros e o puseram em caixinhas inferiores, como dito, os outsiders são funcionais para manter o sistema. A diversidade parte das diferenças para se chegar a uma sociedade mais justa, não é ficando cego à realidade e tratando todos de forma igual que resolveremos os problemas, pois essa realidade nos espanca todos os dias, ela própria cria a exclusão. Cabe superá-la.
Assim, o monstro figurativo de Nimona é o indivíduo que difere do padrão, liberando seu pior lado, vítima de uma sociedade segregadora. Todos nós temos potencial de sermos bons ou ruins, e de fato a sociedade assim nos julga, cria muralhas e discursos "fóbicos". É preciso romper as barreiras, e tentar enxergar no outro a sua melhor versão, visando um bem estar social. Tudo isso pode ser a mais pura ilusão, talvez estejamos caminhando muito devagar em algo que poderia ser mais simples: olhar as diferenças identitárias com ternura, pois o outro em nada interfere naquilo que eu sou, cada um tem o direito de ser feliz e ser quem é.
Um filmaço que merece ser visto à luz de suas mensagens libertadoras e críticas, com cenas de ação, de romance, de humor, mas principalmente, cenas com muito conteúdo reflexivo em um mundo onde, infelizmente, ainda persistem muitos julgamentos.… Expand

The characters are dynamic, well-written, and fun to follow. All of the characters really grew on me. The movie is always beautifully animated. The worldbuilding is original. And it also happens to have some great messages about betrayal, trusting people, and finding people who will love you for who you are, and the main couple was a positive surprise as well! Overall, it was a great watch and it's surely going to put a smile on my face every time I get reminded of it!… Expand

My only issue is that Nimona is a novel we joked about at university, in a philosophy class, where the professor deconstructed modern gender fluid theories for being historicism and constructivism. A constructivist ideology that has its believers but is a joke among academic philosophers and sociologists, and is damaging LGBTQ in the public eye, as we've seen in the past years. Therefore, I wish we would talk about this misleading trend that is attracting parts of the LGBTQ movement, in the same way past constructivists were sometimes debunked by creators and journalists, right? Think of the 1960s and 1970s. But I guess that it is too trendy for now among a certain group of people, and most of us have no theoretical tools to even contemplate it. And Netflix certainly is not the place of theoretical debate.… Expand

All right I got around to finishing this movie, what do I think? I'll just lay it out to you straight.

The animations' visuals, animations and effects are poor throughout the film. While Nimona is an Interesting character who is oozing outAll right I got around to finishing this movie, what do I think? I'll just lay it out to you straight.

The animations' visuals, animations and effects are poor throughout the film. While Nimona is an Interesting character who is oozing out personality, her supporting cast is not well portrayed, literally none of them is good to relate to, unless you like a generic villain plotline, or you are gay. Before you say anything I don't have a problem with the LGB community in fact there are characters from animations that I like more with varying Diversity, but the way that this animation does it is not earned at all. It is forced in the most little way possible that the supporting character himself does not have any redeemable or favourable qualities a person can relate to.

The action scenes are ruined and flooded with music. It was hard to understand what they were saying so I was forced to turn on Subtitles. The action is slow and unsatisfying except for two scenes. The first with a vehicle, a Knight and a food stand, the other scene is the kidnapping scene, which I absolutely love.

The character's motivations besides Nimona are not good at all, things just happen because they did, and the reason behind it all is not well delivered.
Nimonas' motivation and personality are good, I like her character but everything else in the film just weighs it down. If it's not the generic and predictable plot, it's the animation, if it's not that, it's the characters and their annoying modern dialogue, that does not fit at all. None of it is natural besides for personal moments between Ballister and Nimona, this though is right at the end.

The Pacing of the film is all over the place, First, it's rushing, then it's suddenly, taking its time, and then rushing again, stopping, Dancing?! For some reason, I don't know. It hurts the film with the time that was given.

Ok, Ratings:

Visuals: 4/10, I've seen better from other indi-studios, even games from the PS2 era look better than this.

Characters: 6/10, Nimona is Great, and everyone else, just sucks.

Story: 5/10, Generic and Predictable, I literally watched the movie starting from the beginning instead of where I left off from the 20 min mark and knew who the bad guy was and what the plot, in the end, would be. No risk no Reward.

Plot and Pacing: 4/10, It doesn't make use of Dramatic pauses in the plot, the action is breakneck speed but unsatisfying, I don't know what this film was trying to do.

Nimona, you are a cool character but everything else is just weighing you down. This film is a 5/10. It will work for some people, but for most that want to enjoy a well-made animation, this is not it. There is some emotion because I felt a connection to Nimona but when the film reminds you "Hey there's a story remember", I just get uninterested.

Now before you downvote this review, Understand this, I give Animations a fair and easy review, I do not care about agendas, and I do not care about characters having their own sexual preferences. This animation is not up to the quality standards I've seen, and I've watched a lot of animation in my 20+ years of watching Animations. This film to me is mixed which means that there will be a mixed proportion that has different expectations of this film. I would expect there will be people out there who think this is a masterpiece, yeah they are lying, and It's sad they convinced themselves of that and their expectations are so low for 2023.

To the people that made this animation, Do Better. This could have been so much more.
Do I want a Sequel though? If it's just Nimona this time outside the wall exploring different places, that would be nice.

*I will leave my first 20 min impressions of the film down below but for now thanks for reading.

This is not the full review because I lost interest at about 19 minutes.

But so far this is a pretty low-effort, poorly shot and animated animation film. Not only does it look bad the effects are pretty bad, the story and introduction as well as the character motivation so far are poor.

Do you want to know why the main character is special? No not Nimona, the knight that accompanies. I literally facepalmed at this moment. You will find out why within the 10-minute mark.

Another thing I noticed, they copied the aesthetic of Shrek, Fantasy with a mix of modern elements, that's literally Shrek, but here it's done worse.

The action and animations are slow and unsatisfying, they use the most generic ways of conveying a plot and the scenes, in just under 20 minutes. eg. A nonsensical Explosion at the end of an Action Scene does not mean satisfying and amazing.

I will continue this review later After I finish watching it but so far it's not looking good. 4/10.… Expand

Just not appropriate for children and certainly has too many moments of adult humor that didnt need to be there. I did like the new story telling of "monster turn hero", and the villan was well thought out. I also was intrigued with the shapshifting abilty and how the medival story was placed in a futuristic time. To be honest the love story was very weak and it makes the "vallient" knight hero story look like a joke. Artistically beautiful but I dispised all the weak knights that were supposed to protect the city. The children should have been in charge if we were going to be realistic.

It would've been fine if they'd let it develop, but it was shoved in at the beginning. It was a novel idea, but poorly executed. This movie could've been much better with more effort. The ending seemed very forced; it tried to make a cliffhanger but was overall disappointing. Nimona's character is pretty metal, though.… Expand

Body-shaming is bad unless it is manhood size, got it. Don't get me wrong, I think we should be able to make fun of almost anything. But it is the hypocrisy of these preachy self-righteous and ultimately clueless people that is bugging me.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bland attempt a fantastic story.
I was super excited going into this movie because it is based of off the novel written by Noelle Stevenson. I wanted the movie to be great but it lacks any substance, with each of the characters feeling feeling like shells of who they are in the novel. The movies art style also doesn't do justice to the novel. The art feels way to polished and lacks any creativity, like any boring kids movie out there. I wouldn't be so harsh on the project if it wasn't based off of a fantastic novel. The movie is boring. And i would still hate it, but it would be better if they changed the name of the movie, and also the names of the characters. To differentiate from the book.… Expand

Honestly not as good as I was hoping. Still decent, but ultimately falls a little flat for me.
My biggest gripes are with the world and characters. Almost every single person in this movie is frustrating to watch, with misunderstanding and lack of communication being an annoying, ever-present trope on display. Everyone also acts very irrational and cruel, often where it doesn't make sense or seems out of character.
On that topic, it breaks my suspension of disbelief seeing literally everyone in the setting be ignorant and unquestioning of everything. They live in a futuristic society that's progressed 1,000 years, and yet nobody knows what's on the other side of their city's walls? The story seems to focus far more on symbolism and ideas than actually making logical sense.
Other than the writing itself, the rest of the movie is pretty decent. Visually it looks great, the shading and colors are quite pleasing to witness. And it's nice to see a movie not still following the uninspired style of most Disney or Illumination movies. Music ranges from great to serviceable, which I'll definitely take.
Overall not a bad film, but I think it struggles a bit where it really counts.… Expand

This movie should be rated pg-13. While briefly watching with my 8 year old, I noticed swearing and relationship conversations for 13 yr or older. I am told there is also a kiss, which I do not think should be viewed by young children. IThis movie should be rated pg-13.

Some fun dialogue, good voice acting, but utterly forgettable. It’s such a pity because we need more YA movies with diversity. Plot points all felt rushed and utterly ridiculous. My hypothesis is this movie got pitched with a scriptSome fun dialogue, good voice acting, but utterly forgettable. It’s such a pity because we need more YA movies with diversity. Plot points all felt rushed and utterly ridiculous. My hypothesis is this movie got pitched with a script completely different to what was finally created. It feels like a Frankenstein monster, too many cooks, an abomination of too many opinions by “editors” and producers with no writing ability trying to appeal to every demographic. What a waste of talent, money and my time.… Expand

The movie is awful.
Just made for political messaging.
Avoid at all cost, not worth your time.

It's allwys nice to see some good story. I don't like the animation style, but the story telling is so amazing. Animation itself is pretty good. Sometimes its chaotic and sometimes it flips your view on the society and i love it.

Такс, краткий обзор мульта. Если честно то довольно посредственно. И так первое - повестка. Это ж все таки Нетфликс, поэтому как без нее. Главый герой Баллистер голубец и весь мульт пытается достучаться до своего возлюбленного. Но по крайнейТакс, краткий обзор мульта. Если честно то довольно посредственно. И так первое - повестка. Это ж все таки Нетфликс, поэтому как без нее. Главый герой Баллистер голубец и весь мульт пытается достучаться до своего возлюбленного. Но по крайней мере он хоть не страдает фигней рассказывая как ему тяжело, что он голубец, как его все не понимают, как все смотрят на него свысока и какой он несчастный. Мульт без подобного нытья, так что вполне терпимо. Баллистер - голубец, но ведет себя так как полагается парню и рыцарю.

Второе - сюжет. Непритязательно и слишком быстро. События летят настолько стремительно, что порой, кажется, что история раньше подавалась в формате мультсериала, но потом ее попросту сократили до полнометражки. Третье - логика. Ее в происходящем попросту нет. Люди заперли себя в огромном городе за гигантской стеной считая, что снаружи монстры и за 1000 лет никто так и не удосужился проверить так это или нет. Более того их мир технологически более развит нашего. С дронами, летательными аппаратами и прочим. Но никто не пожелал посмотреть, а что там за стеной? Нет понятно, что все это иносказание и философские наставления, но если блин если просто смотреть и не задумываться над подобными вещами, то все выглядит невероятно глупо и кринжово.

И в четвертых. Самая главная проблема мульта - ничего нового. Да, да именно ничего нового. Какой-то гений маркетинга создавая трейлеры не придумал ничего более гениального чем попросту разрезать мульт на куски. Иными словами практически 90% мульта уже показали нам в трейлерах. Не показанными остались только несколько сцен, а именно завязка истории, поход в метро, небольшая подстава и финал. Если перематывать, все что показывали в трейлерах, то от 1:42:46, останется где минут 30-35.… Expand

Has good heart but pretty scattered thematically. The animation is solid for the most part but not extremely detailed.

The worst thing I should've regret reading this book and now they made a movie. I would definitely not watch this.

Nimona is a film that presents a multitude of potentially compelling themes, yet it struggles to fully articulate them. Despite its commendable intentions, the concepts remain somewhat superficial, failing to evolve into a story that achievesNimona is a film that presents a multitude of potentially compelling themes, yet it struggles to fully articulate them. Despite its commendable intentions, the concepts remain somewhat superficial, failing to evolve into a story that achieves genuine emotional conveyance.

However, it's important to note that Nimona is by no means a poorly crafted film. Far from it, but it often falls short when it comes to exploring the details.
The film's ambitious nature occasionally hinders its progress as it attempts to tackle too much. Nevertheless, it counterbalances some of these issues by crafting characters that resonate with the audience. Additionally, when the story demands to get exciting, then it does effectively.

Although Nimona ultimately lacks a coherent and consistent identity, it adapts to meet its intended objectives and understands the landscape in which it operates.
While it may not create a deep and lasting impact, especially in the streaming arena, Nimona does manage to provide entertainment, albeit within reasonable expectations.… Expand
