Hey Arnold! The Movie (2002)

This movie is Trash, Go watch Jungle Movie, NOT THIS!

I feel bad for seeing this mediocre movie before the much better TV movie. It seems like it ran into the same problems that the "My Little Pony" movie did. The animation is great, but it still feels like just a long episode of the show. It seems like the most common complaints was that the side characters were practically useless here. Again, that's a complaint against the "My Little Pony" movie. Honestly, I'm surprised this only has a 29% on RottenTomatoes.I think at one point the viewer percentage was even lower than "The Last Airbender"! Don't worry, it's over now. There are some good jokes and it does get better as it goes along. I guess I just thought this was poorly paced. I'd much rather watch the TV movie where all the characters contribute and there's a much bigger sense of something epic going on. At least we got to see Helga's confession, even though it doesn't last. **1/2

A great movie with some fantastic animation. I love watching the cartoon series and I also love watching the movie too. Hey Arnold is about a nasty man who wants to get rid of the neighbourhood and wants to change it into a big shopping mall.Hey Arnold (voice of Spencer Klein)and his pals Gerald(voice of Jamil Walker Smith)and Helga(voice of Francesca Smith)try to save their neighbourhood and eventually succeed.The film is actually good even tough it is a bit unrealistic like Gerald drives the bus but anyway the film is great and I which they make Hey Arnold 2.If Hey Arnold was live action it would have been a lot better.

Hey Arnold! The Movie is one of those movies where there is a easy to get into plot but there are too many things in the plot that can never be done in real life. Kids can't be spies, kids can't drive a bus,and such. Now this film spoofs too many things as well. The whole idea with the pickle juice on Big Bob, ripping his shirt, and he is all green except for his brown slacks, horrible rip off of the hulk! They spoof Scooby-Doo's best line " I would of gotten away with it if it wasn't for that football headed kid, his friend with the long hair, and the girl with the one eyebrow!" But hey, this is a Nickelodean movie so it's supposed to be for kids. If you like Hey Arnold the t.v show you'll like this. This t.v itself movie gets the big 6, good for kids and some adults but could never happen. Fun for the whole family!
