Movie Reviews of The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack, Vol. 1
Movie Review: Flapjack is Simply Marvelous!
Summary: 5 Stars
The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack is simply an exceptional cartoon in today's world that is full of poor quality crap that is made for children. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, a good cartoon is one with both underlying complex themes that adults will understand and appreciate AND good quality humor and appeal for children. Flapjack is a prime example of this. In fact it fits into this model so well that this cartoon reminds me of several cartoons from the 1990's golden era such as AAAHH!!! Real Monsters, Rocko's Modern Life, and Ren and Stimpy to name a few.
The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack revolves around a young and impressionable boy named Flapjack who follows his idol, Captain K'nuckles in search of great adventures and the renounced Candied Island. Flapjack and K'nuckles themselves are hilarious and often find themselves in situations raging from the bizarre to the surreal to the uncomfortable and everything in between. Not only that, but the supporting characters are very interesting and provide excellent support throughout the episodes. Characters like the Dock Hag, Peppermint Larry, and Lady Nicklebottoms bring in extra humor and freshness to every episode.
For adults, topics such as poverty, friendship, love, self identity, and addiction (to name just a few) are underlying and hidden throughout The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack. Most kids will not recognize these topics, but will still be highly entertained by the enjoyable and sometimes simple plot that is at the surface. This though, is what makes this cartoon exceptional. Older audiences can appreciate the deeper meaning in the show's context while the younger audience can enjoy the simpler aspect of the show.
For someone that grew up during the golden era of cartoons in the 1990's, I can say that The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack is an awesome cartoon that has already demonstrated a great deal and still has tons of potential. I highly recommend it for kids, teens, and even adults. I will most certainly get this volume of episodes and all future volumes. I give The Marvelous Misadventures of Flapjack five stars!
