Awesome Movie
... View MoreIt's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
... View MoreThis is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
... View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
... View Morei saw this on TV late one night and tuned in based on the name alone. i figured with a name like Queer Duck: The Movie it would be a fun movie that didn't take itself to seriously. For it's campy gay humour, it's enjoyable. There are some serious flaws in it however. It starts off fun. The opening sequence is entertaining and the names might make you smirk (Openly Gator, Oscar Wildcat etc...) but after that, it slowly goes downhill. The most irritating thing in the whole movie is the animation. Web cartoon-grade movement where the eyebrows seem to just bounce around at every word while the mouth attempts to match the dialogue (spoiler alert...it never does) The jokes are more miss than hit and one joke is just stolen off an episode of Family Guy (it's like a friend telling the same joke only with added gay animals) All in all, don't bother buying it on DVD but if you see it on TV, you could do a lot worse 3/10
... View MoreI enjoyed Queer Duck when it first showed up online. I went into the movie, however, with no expectations that I would even like it that much. I thought it was a fun hour+. The jokes and visual puns are nicely done, and Conan O'Brien played his "role" well. Sadly, many of the celebrity-driven jokes are from a specific time and place, but if you know the context, you'll laugh out loud. The DVD itself is worth watching, including the original internet videos and interviews with the creators and voice actors. All this said, if you're looking for something that speaks to the struggle to be happily gay in a heterosexual world or imparts a greater wisdom, watch "The Life and Times of Harvey Milk" or some other film; this is not for you.
... View MoreThis consistently clever, though rarely hilarious low budget cartoon is suitable only for hardcore cartoon (homoerotic?)animation fans, with it's sole purpose being 70 + minutes of shoddy animation dedicated to making fun with, though not of, gays. Alienating a large portion in an already small demographic, Queer Duck does not shy away from the queer demographic in it's relentless cuts to musical numbers and continuous homophobic baiting, although the constant pop culture and celebrity gags should appease many of the students of Family Guy, South Park, and The Simpsons (from which Queer Duck's creator was first established). If one were to distill the zany scatological humor found throughout those gems, cut the resources by about 85%, and add an entire unabashedly homosexual slant, one may appreciate what this little toon is offering.
... View MoreThis film is the cartoon story of a gay duck, his life, his loves and his adventures. He marries a diva, he tries sexual behavior modification therapy with a Christian fundamentalist, buys an amusement park, and generally lives it up.That's the general plot, but this film is an absolute riot. Loaded with gags, parody, puns, double entendres, etc. Musical and dance numbers galore. Fabulous guest appearances by the stars we know and love. I laughed until it hurt. There are no words that can adequately describe this film, and all I can really say about it is if you like mad cap humor, this one's for you. NOT a profound statement about the gay experience. And buy the DVD -- you can order it on Amazon.Guest appearances by Michael, Barbra, Liz, and the usual suspects.P.S. To Wayne who wrote the pejorative comments about my review: I had absolutely nothing to do with the making of this film, I do not know anyone who made this film, and I have not received any incentives, financial or otherwise, to promote it. I saw it in a packed auditorium with a seating capacity of 1,407. No one walked out during the screening, and most of the audience was laughing as much as I was. I'll admit it's goofy humor, but duh! it's a cartoon.
