Foodfight!: An Unmitigated Disaster

Foodfight! is what some would call a “glimpse into hell.” 

With a budget of around 65 million dollars, it’s one of the most bizarre and unusual movies ever made. 

Originally scheduled for release in December of 2003, it came out in May of 2012 because the film’s hard drives were stolen and the animators had to start from scratch.

So what makes this movie the absolute worst? Lets begin with the film’s lack of organization, making it seem like everything was rushed and out of place. 

The characters are poorly designed and lack depth. They can only be described as background characters, at best.  

Foodfight! was so bad it prompted viewers to warn anyone they could about just how bad it was. 

Comments on the Rotten Tomatoes website serve as a window into the horror of what this movie turned out to be. 

Here is an example from someone named Cyrus K, who gave the movie a half star: “The animation is beyond abysmal and the world makes no sense! And it has bestiality undertones!” 

How did this happen? The producers were in a hurry to send this monstrosity out to the public, believing that omitting specific details would convince enough people to watch it and like it. And even though it brought significant revenue at first, once audiences saw the movie, they were not amused. 

It is a shame how the film was handled because it had great potential. Perhaps with better animation and more dedication to the characters, it could have been saved. 

On the bright side, viewers received some positive messages throughout the movie like to never stop believing in yourself or “When in doubt, do the right thing and it will always turn out.”
