hyped garbage

Good concept, poorly executed.

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Couldn't move, and had to watch something on tv.It was played in november..Bad acting, bad voice acting, bad script for a movie. Basically a 1 hour and 35 minutes cringe marathon. I feel so embaressed for James Marsden, how could he lower himself to this?

it is a nice film. not comfortable but nice. for the desire to be provocative and an Easter movie. but , the both ambitions are at the half of way. because the entire story seems be not coherent, almost result of improvisation, too cool for be the choice of large public, too provocative and almost ... boring. sure, it remains a film for teenagers with the ambition to be a reasonable option for the parents. but, maybe, something missing. and this is the real problem.

This was a good holiday film-except for Easter, not Christmas. They were obviously trying to emulate The Santa Clause, as James Marsden plays an out-of-work slacker who spots the Easter Bunny as a kid. Twenty years later, he is deliberately ignoring all his family's pleads to get a job. Meanwhile, it is E.B's turn to become the Easter Bunny. He doesn't want the job and runs away to Los Angeles with dreams of becoming a rock star drummer, and after several stops, Marsden literally runs into him. They both become distractions and helpers for each other.I think this film was funny, and I loved seeing Kaley Cuoco (Penny from The Big Bang Theory) in it in a great role as Marsden's sister, and David Hasselhoff in a hilarious cameo. Admittedly, it could have been better, but I still liked it. My favorite scene was the interview at the video game place. You might like it.** 1/2 out of ****

I guess I will never eat Jelly Beans after watching this movie, and you would probably do the same after watching an Easter Bunny take a dump on screen. Yes, this is Hop. The kid's movie with poop jokes, playboy bunnies, and a bunny wanting to mate with a human. Honestly, why are these questionable crude humor jokes in here? They have a brand marketing pornography company, scat, and bestiality humor in a children's movie! This is a kid's movie, not a stand up special. I have to give the movie some credit, as there isn't a lot of Easter's movies out there, and it as less gave it a try. Still, the movie's plot wasn't that well form out, and kinda dumb. I'm just mad because it could have been better. The movie opening pretty much sums up the movie so you don't really have to watch it. No really, it's explains the history of the Easter Bunny and why the newest one is different from them all. The movie spoils the ending in the first couple of minutes in the film, so the audience is only left with the question; how did this happen? E.B (Russell Brand) is the Easter Bunny's son (Hugh Laurie) who doesn't want to be the new Easter Bunny after his father retires, so he runaway to Hollywood, determined to a rock and roll star. It was here that he meets Fred O'Hare (James Marsden) when Fred hit E.B with his car. Fred is a young man who can't seem to find a job that he's passionate about. More like, he's a slacker who can't seem to find any job at all. In my opinion, I think James Marsden as a slacker seems to be a miscast. I can't see him in any role like that. He doesn't even look like a slacker. In the film, he is pretty well dress, unshaven, and in great shape. I think the movie should have at less, gave him a job that he has, but didn't like. It's more realism than him not working at all. Well, E.B callously and selfishly ruining Fred's life throughout the film with big messes as its bypass as slapstick humor. While Fred and the rabbit become unlikely roommates in a borrowed mansion, at the Easter Bunny's factory hidden deep inside the mouth of a Moai statue on Easter Island is Carlos the Chick (Hank Azaria). I was kinda disappointed by Hank here, as he doesn't give anything new to the role and wasn't funny at all. Carlos wants to take over the factory after being pass over for the job of the Easter Bunny and sees E.B disappearing as a way to gain access. The movie got controversy because some people views Hop depicts Hispanics as deluded and dangerous. Throughout the film, Carlos speaks in broken English with a strong mock-Spanish dialect. Consequently, the film reinforces the belief that Mexicans who speak English with a thick accent are somehow stupid, unqualified, or a joke. I can see that, but I really don't think Carlos was create just for something like that. He's just a silly character with a voice that Hank choice for him. He could have a Scottish voice and still seem like a negative portrayal. So not only does E.B leaving cause chaos in his wake on Easter Island, but its brings a lot of trouble in the human world as well. The premise of the story is a lot like director Tim Hill's earlier Alvin and the Chipmunks films, a man without direction finds his purpose through an unlikely relationship with a cute talking animal and like that movie, the lack of wit or real humor made this movie a real chore to sit through. The movie tries too hard to live up to Christmas movies, by stealing or having similar things to Christmas movie to get kids more into the film. Why on earth did they give the Easter Bunny, a magic sled, if they have a magic hole in the ground that can take them anywhere in the world that works better? It doesn't make any sense. It's doesn't have to make any sense, it's a kid movie. Don't ask the movie to have depth, or meaning. Still, the movie has some pretty good cameos such as David Hassellhoff, Kaley Cuoco, Gary Cole, Chelsea Handler and yes, even Russell Brand yet again as a different character. The movie isn't going to hurt your kids, so it's watchable. The animated/live-action hybrid film genre's movie is probably going to continue, and 'Hop' will join the films likes such as The Smurfs and Alvin and the Chipmunks as really bad movies, but makes a million dollars anyways because it's just something to babysit your children with. Honestly, this movie should be a last resort as a family event for Easter. It's healthier for them to do outdoor activities with their parents than watch this movie in my opinion.
