    Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

    A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

    This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

    Hi my name is Josh an I recently started watching Moonbeam City about a week ago. I'll be honest I thought this would be a awful idiotic show that only last about 10 episodes and that it was just a spin off of Ugly Americans. But once again I've judged a book by its cover or in this case show. At first I thought it would be stupid because it look like one of those TV shows about a neo futuristic city whose protagonist was very weird.Honestly the show is pretty good, but I feel like it's the type of show you would see on Adult swim than Comedy Central. Anyway, for the people who have seen the commercials, trailers, or even read my comment an our curious about the show I recommend it but if you don't like the first episodes try the next ones they're all good it just depends on your opinion. The overall plot is hilarious because it involves "Dazzle Novak" the top cop in the Moonbeam Police Force whose is narcissistic and incompetent at his job but is a funny protagonist when he parties, fights, and holds raves. He always in competition with his Rival Rad and cursed out by his Police Chief Pizazz Miller. I really appreciate how interesting the show is with their advance technology, constant parties, sexual comedy, and the constant hazing of Rad. I personally like all the episodes except for #4 but that's just my personal opinion, however it was cool that Patrick Warburton guest star.

    Off the bat YES it's like an Archer clone. But c'mon, how many of those do you see around? Secondly, it's like Archer Vice, which in my opinion was their best season, but this one is Archer Vice, literally, figuratively on crack, without pants, or care, eating a hotdog dripping onto a Carl's fat stomach, may he rest in peace with Meatwad.This show is extremely funny. Will they keep it up? Only time will tell like every single comedy ever made.First episode is very strong, clearly another show that gives no F**********s. Rob Lowe fit absolutely perfectly and quite obviously as Dazzle Novak. But I think the crown jewel here is Will Forte's Rad Cunningham. This guy was glorious as usual.Anyone who likes Archer should quiet down, as they are on a downhill slope at the moment, until they bring back Archer Vice, this will do. Plus it's great to have options!

    Saw this show last week after watching a trailer on comedy central. I have to say, I'm a fan. This show is essentially a parody of every 80's cop show out there. There is an Archer-vibe to the show, especially reflective in the oversexed, often incompetent, lead in Dazzle Novak but I think Moonbeam City very much has its own niche. Frankly, I find it unfair to categorize it as an "Archer rip off," as it has its own humor and charm.The cast is full of big names like Rob Lowe as the lead character and Elizabeth Banks, whom I detest as an actress often but she really nails it as Pizzaz. They all do a pretty good job in their roles especially Lowe who really makes Dazzle to be utterly incompetent but still charming in a "what a maroon," kind of way.I find the jokes hit or miss, there is a lot of shock humor but honestly everything on Comedy Central so no surprise there. The problem is that there just isn't consistency. I think the funny moments, especially in episode 2, far outweigh the bad and even the bad jokes are surrounded by relatively good writing so you can at the very least enjoy the conversations.The art style is excellent, by far my favorite animated show currently on right now stylistically. It really has that "Vice City," vibe (if you've ever played the video game) with a touch of a Frisky Dingo. The colours are vibrant and the soundtrack is pretty solid.With solid writing, good cast and great art design you owe it to yourself to take a trip to Moonbeam City.

    Similar humor sensibilities to adult cartoons mentioned in summary title. Love the subtle jokes as well as 80/90s cultural references. Not a show with universal appeal but do not think this is what they are going for. Rob Lowe's voice and acting sensibilities really add to the humor. This was one of the first shows I've watched in a while and caught myself laughing out loud. If they can keep this level of humor going even for one season, this will definitely become another cult guilty pleasure series to add to my list. I would not be surprised if it does not make it past the first season due to this being a very specific type of humor that is likely not to gain many fans beyond those who already love this type of adult toon comedy.
