Sing is a movie that lures with the promise of being a modern day jukebox musical but ends up being a complete waste of time. Illumination was looking for another great hit since the only great movie they have been able to make was DespicableSing is a movie that lures with the promise of being a modern day jukebox musical but ends up being a complete waste of time. Illumination was looking for another great hit since the only great movie they have been able to make was Despicable Me, but this wasn't it by long shot. It's not funny, unless you are two year old, and there are way to many characters to focus on. Thus every character in this film comes off as one dimensional and boring. with one exception, Johnny the Gorilla. The only other good part about this movie is the ending scene which is when, shock of all shock, the characters actually preform full musical numbers. you see in the majority of the film we don't get full musical numbers just pits of the characters singing. Which, for a movie called Sing is a shame. In conclusion this movie is terrible if your looking for good Jukebox musical go check out Rock of Ages and stay far away from this pile of crap. Expand

Other than that, Sing is a rushed movie on so many aspects. One being that the whole story changes because of something so stupid and unrealistic (an eyeball falling out of a lizards head), they should have put more thought into that. Another being that they use animals instead of humans, and they don't even act like Animals. Disney's "Zootopia" at least follows the basis that they are still animals, even though they are basically human, they still have animal traits that have a roll on the story of Zootopia, Sing falls short in that. The characters really feel bland and not interesting and hard to love. Sing is one movie that is very forgettable and Illumination better pick up their act soon or just stick to Despicable Me, and even that they can't do. Sorry, but Sing is not for me at all, and it's a very bad movie thats hard to even enjoy. Expand

Not only did this production fail to be a musical, it failed to be a movie. It has 10-15 second segments of popular songs, without one full musical piece, and it has no soul. Not to mention, the moral implications of this film areNot only did this production fail to be a musical, it failed to be a movie. It has 10-15 second segments of popular songs, without one full musical piece, and it has no soul. Not to mention, the moral implications of this film are questionable at best. What are they really saying?

There's no real pay off. Nothing really that creative. This is "America's Got Talent," the animated feature film.

Honestly one of the worst movies i have ever seen. The animation is bad you cant get attached to any character and the jokes are predictable.

Sing is one of the worst animated and worst film I've seen of 2016. The script is atrocious and only redeeming quality of the movie is the music... Scratch that Tori Kelly's and Taron Egerton's voice made the movie. Taron has come a long waySing is one of the worst animated and worst film I've seen of 2016. The script is atrocious and only redeeming quality of the movie is the music... Scratch that Tori Kelly's and Taron Egerton's voice made the movie. Taron has come a long way and can't wait for Kingsman 2. I would give the Razzies to "Sing." Expand

This movie barely made me laugh. I saw this with my mom & autistic brother, & he liked it but I could tell he seemed bored throughout the movie; that's how I felt too. There's movies that are funnier & keep you engaged; this one didn't for me.

Are you kidding me? This movie took songs and did it so poorly I was tired of it. Mediocre animation movie does not deliver any interesting or distinct characters and is too slow.
