Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie [Child's Cape Included] [4K Ultra HD Blu-ray] [2017]

Got an 8 year old boy who loves the Captain Underpants book series, so of course he is just as enthusiastic about the films as well. This film is, I suppose, a prequel of sorts to the whole Capt. Underpants franchise. It lays out the background info for most of the main characters that appear throughout both the books and the movies. There are also jokes about, uhhhhh, um things the human body does. And by that I mean there are more bodily function jokes than you can shake a stick at, there are just so many! If you get tired of hearing jokes centered around you know what, never fear because there are also jokes about other bodily functions. If you were expecting Citizen Kane, then you are a bizarre and possibly deranged individual. This is a kids' movie and as such, don't expect anything revelatory or provocative. You should expect pffft jokes...

Capitan Underpants is everything you could want in a movie: laughter, suspense, and hilariously wacky comedy. There’s a bit of potty humor, so people that don’t want their kids watching that sort of stuff should maybe reconsider. There are no really scary parts except where Professor Pee Poopy Pants Diarrhea Stain Esquire, wants to get rid of laughter. I have 2 kids ages 6 and 9, and they both loved it. In fact, the next day they were begging me for it again. Kids will love this show. Go Captain Underpants!!!!" Also, another word from me... We often have a hard time finding movies that are appropriate and enjoyable for the whole crew. This one has really fit the bill. And yes, lots of potty talk but it hasn't cause any problems for us even though they've watched it so many times :)

Overall the story is good. It's not going to win any awards nor is it going to change the movie going experience as we know it, but if you want a movie that's just generally good then you can't go wrong with this one. There is some "potty" humor (I mean come on, it's literally got the word Underpants in the title) but nothing too bad by most standards. If you are strictly wanting to have a wholesome experience with your children then this is not a movie for you. The humor is basically what you'd expect to see on a 3rd grade playground, but there are some moments that adults will be able to appreciate. So, if you're not too strict on what your kids see or have older kids who enjoy animated features, and you want something that's also tolerable for adults, then this is for you.

I enjoyed this movie much more than I thought I would. It is a kids movie and I am a grown man but watching this with my kids expecting it to be another run of the mill children's movie with poor storyline and just boring as anything acting, I was pleasantly surprised. it was very funny entertaining and surprising for those of us who have never read the books. I went into this completely unaware of who or what the characters were and came out very surprised and happy that it was not what I expected. recommended for all ages.

My girls loved these books when they were little, as did I. I figured the movie would be less fun than the books. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this movie is hilarious in the same way the books are hilarious. It abounds in grade school humor yet manages to not be crude. The story of Harold and George, their friendship and their antics is well worth your time and money. Absolutely delightful movie!

My 5 year old loves loves loves this movie. Parents be forewarned.....this movie is on the super annoying side and I can’t stand it but my son loves it and he is the one I bought it for. I honestly have no idea what it’s about. I always love watching the newest cartoons with him, but this one, I just can’t do it. My seal of approval with 5 stars, I wasn’t the target demographic anyways lol

My nine year old son loves the movie -- thinks it is great (remember, he's only nine). I think it's because there is a lot of scatological humor (you'll have to look it up because the BB censor forbade a more kid-friendly term). I also think the villains are not overly scary and kids find it easy to identify them, but not too scary to watch. Nice story about being friends.

I love this movie it's the best and It's funny also I have it on Digital too
