![]() It has garnered near-universal critical acclaim Brian Tallerico of called it "a wonderful adventure," praising it as "an ambitious family film that will work for all ages, and one that never talks down to its audience while presenting them with an entertaining, thought-provoking story." Raya and the Last Dragon is another great Disney picture for the vault - and it's hands-down the best family film of the year so far.Sort Genre Rating Audience score Tomatometer ® Certified Fresh The flick's stellar cast also includes Gemma Chan, Daniel Dae Kim, Benedict Wong, Sandra Oh, Alan Tudyk, and Awkwafina as Sisu.

Wrote the Austin Chronicle's Richard Whittaker in his review, "There are good reasons why SpongeBob has been top of the reef for two decades, and the third film in the series keeps that boisterous streak alive. Sweet, silly, with that profoundly bizarre world view. That supporting voice cast includes the likes of Keanu Reeves, Awkwafina, Danny Trejo, Tiffany Haddish, and the one and only Snoop Dogg - but even they must take a backseat to everyone's favorite lovable sponge. The plot involves SpongeBob and Patrick setting off on an adventure to rescue the former's sea snail, Gary, who has been kidnapped for his precious slime by King Poseidon and- well, as with most SpongeBob stories, it's really best to just let the zaniness wash over you. Instead, the flick is available for those enjoying the newly-relaunched Paramount+ (formerly CBS All Access), which boasted The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run as one of its launch titles. While much of the world has already gotten a peek at the movie in theaters, plans for a theatrical release were scrapped in the United States. ![]() This is one that we will watch as a family time and time again." I love having new Scooby-Doo content that feels like classic Scooby-Doo content. Tessa Smith of Mama's Geeky heaped praise on the movie in her review, writing, "This movie does a great job of channeling the original show with the look, the humor, and the story. The flick's excellent voice cast includes Nick Frost ( 3Below: Taes of Arcadia) as Merlin, Jason Isaacs ( Castlevania) as King Arthur, and Grey Griffin ( Bless the Harts) as Morgan Le Fay - not to mention the great Fred Welker (who has voiced Fred since the '60s), the hilarious Kate Micucci (who takes her first crack at voicing Velma), and Matthew Lillard (who has owned the role of Shaggy in both live-action and animation for a couple decades now). Scooby-Doo! The Sword and the Scoob is a great time for kids and their parents (most of whom will have fond memories of kicking back with a bowl of cereal to watch the old Scooby-Doo! Where Are You?series every Saturday morning).
