Paw Patrol The Movie: Unexpectedly Good (Review/Analysis)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Paw Patrol is a show on Nick Jr. that initially aired in 2013, and after 8 years and 8 seasons, it became popular enough to have its own theatrical film. Surprising and impressive to say the least, this movie was certainly highly anticipated by fans of the show and those (like me) who wanted to know what the big deal is about this show that it would get a legitimate movie made after it.
So is this movie any good? And if so, how does it manage to still be entertaining within the limits of a G rating. Those questions and more I will be answering in today’s review and analysis of Paw Patrol the Movie!

My review video on Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie is FINALLY FINISHED!

Thank you all for your patience, and I hope you enjoy!
I like Paw Patrol and I like Paw Patrol The Movie.
Chase's backstory revealed was so sad and I love it when he saved his best friend Ryder and overcame his fears.
Chase is my favorite puppy of The Paw Patrol team.
I watched this movie because of Mayor Humdinger, and boy, I hated the ending!
the nostalgia of paw patrol of watching this in early elementary, now it’s a movie
While I never wanted to watch it when I was younger, from what I’ve seen it looks like it could be a pretty entertaining kid’s show actually.
1. I had no idea it existed until (maybe?) 2016/2017. When I first saw it, I immediately hated it and never EVER watched it. I promise.
2. This movie came out 1 year ago today, and I gave it no attention as well (despite the better/decent-looking animation). Until randomly on November 29th, I watched this (via Paramount+) and had the same result as this review. I was rooting for Chase the whole time (secretly).
3. Somehow, I watched this ON THE BIG-SCREEN on July 13th this year. I have videos of the theater’s reaction (because of kids 😂) for proof.
4. Today, I wish the best of luck from this movie. So happy 1st birthday. Can’t wait for the Mighty Movie next year.
@@DrasticFox2004 That's interesting. It's similar to my story with this franchise but with slight differences. I was kinda on my way out of Nick Jr. by the time it was introduced. If I were to watched a Nick Jr. show (for some reason) I would want to see something that I personally found nostalgic. Eventually, though, Paw Patrol became this huge juggernaut, and when it eventually became a movie (with noticeably better animation quality) I was intrigued. So (in part because of this YT channel) I decided I would watch and review this film on August 21st, the day after its release. Having no expectations, I was pleasantly surprised that it not only managed to be engaging for a G rated film, but also had a subplot of mental distress which was done fairly well. And of course I made this video and the rest is history.
@@DrasticFox2004 While I am excited for the sequel, now that I have expectations I'm a little concerned. I feel it'd be best to play off the arcs from the first film but also not copy the development verbatim, instead offering a new, larger internal/external challenge.
When I watched this movie in theaters for the first time it became one of my favorite movies of all time I absolutely love the show as well and I’m so happy to own the movie on Blu-ray
Oh my god, same.
Except when I saw it in theaters (this July via a re-release/event), it was the 6th time.
Plus, this movie not only saves the franchise for me but also gives me a little bit of hope for it as well. Just a little.
I actually prefer Chase being the main of the movie. I would definitely choose just one fleshed-out main character, rather than an inconsistent and jumbled storyline because it had too many characters to focus. It's not a perfect movie, but it definitely exceeds my expectations, especially considering it's based on TV series for preschoolers. And like you mentioned, coping with traumas and low self-esteem was a pretty heavy topic for a Nick Jr. movie, which surprised me a lot.
And yes I agree with you that Ryder was really unlikeable. He has literally no soul nor personality throughout the movie, he's just there so the plot can progress. I wish he had more screentime in the movie, like maybe a scene where he regretted for not being a good enough leader, realised how he neglected Chase the entire time, and the maybe the other dogs could comfort Ryder as well.
I know I said I didn’t like Ryder in the video, but I feel like I’ve now realized just how unethical his actions are. I mean, the general premise of the show is already a little iffy, but the movie specifically doesn’t give Ryder any accountability.
I’m assuming the creators didn’t want to paint Ryder in a negative light in the slightest, but it ultimately means he doesn’t have any moment of reflection or apology even when he did handle Chase’s situation incredibly poorly. And the fact that everyone just unwaveringly follows him also makes it feel like he’s taking advantage of the trust of children (despite technically being a child himself).
I don’t think the intention ever was for Ryder to be a bad person, but his lack of legitimate character ultimately paints him as a worse, not better, leader.
(I do find it kind of funny, however, that this movie based on a Nick Jr. show has me questioning the relative ages of the characters and the ethics of employing them to perform life-threatening tasks. It’s like, I really shouldn’t care, but the film kinda FORCES me to think about it!)
Unexpectedly good, was the PERFECT way to describe this movie for me.
This was literally my first visit to the franchise, on November 29th, and all-of-a-sudden WHAT THE HELL IT’S GOOD?
13:17
"Not the same way I don't like the *other pups for not being important to the story."*
*Zooms in on Marshall, Rocky and Zuma 😂😂😂*
This is a great movie and this movie is what made me remember paw patrol.
Same, except here’s how it went for me:
1. At first, in a bad way cause I had no intention of hoping for or loving the franchise.
2. After watching, in a GOOD way because I loved what they did with this one, and it gives me a little bit of respect for the franchise just a little. So there will be random times where I will watch PAW Patrol, I’m just procrastinating.
I’m sure Liberty was gonna be the mc because of the marketing
ur editing and video skills are keep getting better every video for real‼️
I'd say this is probably one of my most favourite movies of all time, next to stuff like Avatar 1 and 2. To keep it brief
- Animation was gorgeous
- Music slaps
- One of very few movies to ever make me cry
- Had some funny, self aware moments
- Solid messages and themes for a kids movie
- Chase felt very realistic considering I've had similar experiences and I related to him a lot. Feelings of being a hindrance rather than a help, being lied to without people considering the repercussions of that lie, trying to run away from issues rather than face them and giving up because you just don't think you can do it
10:03 - 10:39
You know. This scene is probably not just the one thing that saved the franchise for me, but also redeemed my childhood self.
And therefore, this movie succeeded. Amazingly.
When the reporter said the “In a surprising turn of events that surprised no one.” I literally thought
‘Okay hehehehehe, that line, THAT line, that’s what hooks me into this movie.”
I don’t mean to sound sarcastic, I really thought it was a good movie
As a paw patrol fan this is my favorite movie
Same but I feel like Liberty was the old mc then they made chase the mc and fleshed him out unlike Liberty
But Liberty’s character took a big derailment in her episode
Since I’m not really a fan (and hated it until I watched this movie), I can actually say the same as you (@OrcaMan) because of what they did with this one.
They gave it more emotion and story, and better animation (seriously), and even used the ONE character I knew someday I would love/like (Chase) for something. He’s my guilty-pleasure ticket to try and give this franchise/show a chance now.
*Happy 1st Anniversary to PAW Patrol: The Movie!*
💙❤️💛💖💚🧡
I’m saying this because it FINALLY doesn’t suck *(as a movie, though).*
This movie sucks to me, because they were treating humdinger like a big lame nobody, and I was so disappointed in Chase doing so. 😠
I just watched "Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie!"
I plan to make a full video on the film, so stay tuned for that in the future! 😁
You need to watch the show
Also, Ryder is 14 in the movie along with the pups who are older than the original series
Pros
Mayor Humdinger As The Main Villain
Decent CGI
Chase's Backstory
The Look Of Adventure City
The Basic Concept
The Climax
Rubble
Cons
Liberty Being The Star Of Chase's Own Story
7:59-8:08
That I should have learnt
When I first watched it was an alright movie it was pretty good animation good story not half bad and liberty was so likable in the movie a bit of a goofball like an actual dog would act irl but there were I guess few things that were a little bit off like for example a crap joke in one scene with the purple subway tracks when that random reporter guy said something that I'm like really what is it with modern kids movies nowadays with crap jokes it's getting old and annoying and yes I did agree with you I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt like chase got the most screentime and moments besides the others and also the suit up scene did felt too drag on for long chase overreacting that felt kinda off about trust and other he said well we do keep getting overreacting scene in kids films I wonder why they use the same formula? And mayor humdinger did felt annoying and I wonder how come no one in the paw patrol universe didn't arrested this guy cuz if mayor humdinger ever did something like that in the real world he would definitely be in jail in big time! So yeah bad boys whatcha gonna do when they come for you well chase kinda said he was arrested but I guess it was a joke or something idk ? But it's a alright good movie other than that
Actually, it is implied that Humdinger DID get put in jail, because we see him behind bars in the credits. Though I doubt that’s canon to the Paw Patrol TV Universe. But who knows?
@@StickyBrickBuilder
Well according to the next movie’s (Mighty Movie) plot summary, it says a “mad scientist” breaks Humdinger out of jail and teams up with him to stop the pups.
So I think yes.
@@DrasticFox2004 The whole Mighty Pups thing really confuses me. Is it canon to the show? If so, why don't they always use their superpowers? And if the movie is canon to the show, that means the Mighty Movie is too, but that's an origin story to their superpowers which they presumably already had in the show if Mighty Pups is canon.
(I'm probably way overthinking this...)
@@StickyBrickBuilder
We’ll have to find out in the Mighty Movie about the origin confusion.
I think it is, cause it looks VERY better than the actual show. Hell, the theme song kicks WAYYY better than the original to me actually. Can’t wait for a Reimagined Version of that variant, like how this movie did the Theme Song Reimagined. (Look it up)
@@DrasticFox2004 Even as someone who never watched Paw Patrol, I thought it was very cool seeing the actual theme song on the big screen. I could just imagine a kid seeing their favorite theme just made more grandiose and the lead into the logo just fully cementing that this movie is indeed real and happening!
Underrated
Oh, same.
Even though this movie gets public attention, I think it deserves MORE.
Like an award, an art-book, and even a freaking re-release.
hey when I first saw this movie I immediately fell in love with paw patrol the movie and now I'm sad because I can't watch it anymore on Nick
0:51 - 1:09
I love these roasts 😂
They’re kinda terrible… but thanks! 😆
@@StickyBrickBuilder
The ones with Ryder, Chase, and Rocky HAD me
@@StickyBrickBuilder
I was like, wait a freaking minute,
*THERE’S A LAB RATS CHARACTER NAMED CHASE?!* 🤣
@@StickyBrickBuilder 0:57 We got Indonesian Zuma-tra. (Get it, cause, it's an island.....with....water.....nevermind ._.).
@@StickyBrickBuilder now that's what we call a 4th wall break
I used to watch the show when I was a little girl I literally just watched the movie and everything was fine about it for me but there's one thing that pissed me off HOW IS RIDERS LEGS NOT BROKEN!!???
Surprisingly the voice acting is pretty good also first watching I gave it a 9/10 but looking at other reviews and seeing some good points my score dropped to a 7.5/10
For me it’s decent, but the rest of this movie is *OH MY GOD 😱😱😱* 10/10
7:40
Therefore, it reminds me of the last unexpectedl-good movie I loved previously, in 2020.
Kenai in Brother Bear - *Love*
Does Brother Bear have a motif of bravery? It’s been a while since I watched the movie so I don’t remember.
@@StickyBrickBuilder
Briefly, but mostly no.
For 2 things:
1. How Kenai has to get over his (easily-scared or annoyed type of) hate for bears, by befriending Koda.
2. “Koda, don’t be afraid, it’s me.” - Kenai *(I’m spoiling this without context to see if you get it)*

And by the way the other pups were busy when chase jumped the gap
He mentioned that
No he didn’t he said that one of the other pups could have helped him but I said they were busy with their own part of the mission at the time
@@orcaman1353 It was Chases redemption arc by getting over his fear. It wouldn’t make sense if he was helped
@@huh7757 he mentioned that I know
I mean, Skye was busy saving literally everybody, and Zuma and Liberty were saving the family from drowning, which I guess was urgent. But Rubble, Rocky, and Marshall only escorted everyone into the building. I'm assuming they didn't do anything after that, so they could've easily helped out in other ways. Of course, they weren't present when Chase went to go save Ryder, so you could say they simply didn't know. Or they are so devoted to following their direct orders that they decided to stay inside the building. Or the movie, instead of switching back and forth between each puppy's roles to indicate they were happening at the same time, decided to do them one after the other to make it more straightforward for kids. Or I'm probably thinking way too much about this...
13:09
Ok I trust you
*literally 2 seconds later*
I trusted you
You said everything would be fine but it’s *NOT*
5:54
Dat faceee
The PAW Patrol movie is honestly one of the biggest surprises of 2021.
Given the source material they had to work with, they could've easily slummed it for an easy paycheck and just shat out another worthless school holiday cash-grab to make money off of hopeless parents and their loudmouth bratty kids.
But to my shock, the movie had more effort put into it than it has any right. Compared to what I was expecting, it was genuine fun for an all-ages audience and it was alot more thought-provoking and mature than most adult-animated material these days especially in regards to how they handled Chase.
Not saying the movie is perfect but dammit, I would be lying if I said it wasn't a great family film worth seeing. I would say that it is advised that you have to watch a bit of the show to get better context but other than that, anyone can view it with no regrets whatsoever.
Suffice to say, I can't wait for the sequel next year.
The movies are not that babyish
I really like this movie 7/10 I know I can't believe I'm saying that either
6:23 - 7:08
Poor Leadership *101*
I ❤the song 🎵
This movie was a lot better than expect especially since it came from a kindergartner show not a kids show but a kindergarten show there is a difference anyways the movie was a lot more emotional than expect and their were so many cool moments. I personally didn’t really mind the redundancy of chases arc cuz it kinda made it more believable in my opinion, as you get your hopes up believing it’ll all be fine just for you to do or get to whereever but just to have a emotional moment freaking out. If you’ve watched the actual show then you know how it hit when he said rocky and zuma wearnt really necessary during the movie😭😭😭. When it comes to mayor humdinger yeah no one really likes him he’s just annoying nothing to him and that goes for pretty much every single villain and honestly side character in the paw patrol show. Their all just dumb whiny and annoying especially Alex and Daring Danny X god those two need to be wiped off the face of the earth I swear if they get introduced to the movie you’ll see me roll my eyes so far back ima be looking at you from the back of my head.
I would love Mayor Humdinger if I was in the movie though.
12:53 lol
1:34 Oh who cares Adventure Bay will be fine.
I hated this movie, My biggest regret of paw patrol, I slowly losing interest in Nickelodeon, Nick Jr and Dogs since this show is too horrible that I don't think it needed a movie. I thought scamp and angel aren't terrible, But I like those characters better then paw patrol pups. This movie is really bad. It's now my worst nickelodeon movie since sponge on the run.
It’s a movie for toddlers, you’re too old to be complaining about it weirdo
