Stylish but barely mediocre overall

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

I have to admit, I did not see this movie in theaters. Instead, I caught it on Cartoon Network after the initial release. So, it is the Powerpuff Girls formula we all know and love, but it does take a darker tone. I like the animation, the story, and even the darker tone. It is the perfect origin story for me (and the Youtuber RebelTaxi (also known as Pan Pizza)). It's a shame the movie bombed its theatrical release. But, we still got more episodes of the classic show.P.S. I'll have to check out the 2016 reboot series for myself. I hear it can't compare with the classic, but maybe it can stand on its own better than I hear.

I love this just as much as the series and it tells when the Powerpuff Girls were created and how Jojo became Mojo Jojo. Of course that is shown in the episode Mr. Mojo's Rising right after Mojo kidnaps the Professor and tells the girls about his origin and then the Professor realizes Mojo was the worst lab assistant he ever had and threw him out after the girls were born. In the movie right after the girls were created the Professor gives them presents and discovered his accident made the girls very special and unique. This movie also shows how the girls got their room and the girls made the windows with their heat vision. After a long day of fun and work and play the girls are put to bed and they are just so cute when they're asleep. The next morning the girls are taken to Pokey Oaks Kindergarten on their first day of school and are introduced there. Later that day the girls are playing out on the playground playing hopscotch then discovered the game tag and as they started to play they started to cause destruction all over Townsville and then later that night the Professor tells them that they shouldn't use their powers in public anymore cause no one understood how special they were yet. The next day the girls are in a newspaper about the destruction they caused yesterday and Mojo in a box sees them in it and laughs maniacally cause he had a plan to use them to take over Townsville and the world and it was his first plan ever. Also when the girls came to Pokey Oaks they saw that no one wanted to play with them after yesterday. Then later that day the Professor is arrested and the girls are left at school alone and heartbroken. They go into Townsville lost from home and saw that everyone hated them and called them freaks. Now that part really got to me and made me cry. Then the girls are in an alley and meet the Gangreen Gang for the first time but didn't know how to use their powers yet. Then Mojo comes to save them and after that the girls discovered that he was a unique creature as well and Mojo asks them to help him with a project that would make the people of Townsville accept him. This also shows how Mojos lair was created and that was when the girls are tricked into building it. Then Mojo also creates this machine which needed a supply of Chemical X which made the Powerpuff Girls and when it was built Mojo takes the girls to the zoo and takes pictures of them in the primates section but really puts transporters on all the monkeys and apes and when the girls go home the Professor is brought home from jail and tells them what happened to him and the girls tell him that things would get better. But instead things got worse. Mojo transports all the primates from the zoo and uses the machine of Chemical X to turn them into super intelligent apes like himself and I mean literally like himself. XD. When the girls and the Professor see this they are shocked and the town hated the girls more then ever and the girls tried to explain but the professor didn't know who to believe and that made the girls go into exile to an asteroid on the asteroid belt. Meanwhile Mojo takes over Townsville along with all his ape army. Then when the girls heard all the cries of all the people of Townsville and the Professor being held captive by Mojo they decided to help and soon discovered what they can do with their powers and that is by fighting crime and the forces of evil. Then they started kicking all the monkeys and apes butts and then they go after Mojo. When the girls get to Mojo he uses the machine with Chemical X and turns himself into a big King Kong size of a chimp and starts reeking havoc on Townsville. Then the girls started fighting the Super Mojo and during the fight Mojo carry's the girls in one of his paws up the tallest building like King Kong climbing the Empire State Building and proposes to them to join them in his quest to conquer the world. It's also a Star Wars reference cause Mojo did it like Darth Vader. lol. The girls denied the proposal and defeated Mojo once and for all for the first time and he falls like King Kong. lol Then he falls onto a container of Antidote X which was the alternative to Chemical X. Then Mojo is revereted back to normal and Townsville and the day are saved thanks to the Powerpuff Girls. Then after that everyone in Townsville loved the Powerpuff Girls and apologize for the way they treated them. Ever since then the girls have been fighting crime and saving the world before bedtime. This movie is one of the best animated films ever and should've been nominated for an Oscar for best animated feature. I was 11 years old when I first saw this.

I love the TV show, so naturally I wanted to see this movie. And I really enjoyed it, perhaps it is a little short and one or two parts are repetitive, but as a standalone and as a movie to compliment the series it succeeds wonderfully. The animation is excellent, keeping to the style of the show while adding some promising CGI to it too. The music is energetic and kitsch, the dialogue is hilarious and has a lot of wit and the story with its fast paced kick-ass action and wonderfully chaotic finale is enormously entertaining, it actually felt more than an extended TV episode. The characters are as infectious as ever, the Powerpuff Girls are still cute and Mojo Jojo is a welcome presence, while the voice work is top notch. All in all, great fun and worthy. 8/10 Bethany Cox

I love the Powerpuff girls. They are cute, feisty and love to beat up the bad guys big time. The visual and storying telling style makes it work brilliantly.In making the movie they seem to have chosen to abandon this. The superficials are there, but it really seems different and basically boring.Perhaps they were trying to add more depth, but mostly they had extended sequences without any plot. Good for young children and people using mind altering substances (or a combination of both).It does try and develop a lot more back story and chart the evolution of the PP Girls. But violence is at the heart of the PowerPuffDom, while in the TV series, there is always something else, more interesting and vital than merely beating up the bad guys.
