Hilda's Theatrical Experience

Hilda's Theatrical Experience is a 2021 animated film based on the TV series Hilda. The film was released on February 19, 2021.
== Plot ==
With her mom gone for the weekend, Hilda and her deer fox Twig plan to do some fun stuff until a few baby bears show up and they're quite friendly. Because of winter coming, Hilda must return them to their home before the season comes along.
== Why It Rocks ==
# The film is a great start for an animated Screen Gems film.
# It stays 100% faithful to the original show as the designs are done right.
# The concept of a girl bringing a pack of baby bears home is very wonderful and very creative.
# It has very funny quotes like "Twig, people don't wear shoes on their heads, it makes them look awfully crazy."
# The voice acting is superb as most of the original cast do their roles correctly.
# Beautiful music score composed by John Powell and Heitor Pereira.
# It's not afraid to do pop culture references as they do the jokes very smoothly. Some jokes include "I said no more DC Comics jokes." and "Are we gonna lose this battle to Coraline with the light blue hair?"
# Michael Gambon does a very good job at voicing the antagonist of the film Sergeant Rodney.
#The way Nick Wachtenheim quits being a strict army soldier, he leaves the army and becomes a well respectful man is perfectly well done.
#Amazing original songs like the demo version of Walk On Water by Ozzy Osbourne, Calling You by Blue October and others.
#It does a good job at using songs from other movies very smoothly.
#It's never scared to parody certain scenes from other films like the scene where Hilda, the baby bears, Nick and Rooney are watching a choir in church. This scene looks direct from Home Alone.
#Impressive visual effects, especially for 2020's standards.
#The film does a great job at parodying a couple of scenes from Persepolis since some fans of Hilda claimed that the animation looked similar to the movie.
#The forest scene is one of the most beloved scenes of the film. Another scene is where Nick's daughter Tifa meets her father again after sunday school choir.
== Bad Qualities ==
# The film was released while the COVID-19 pandemic was still in the world. But thankfully, this movie did not bomb at the box office.
# The baby bears were in the church which is kind of a problem since they don't allow animals inside public places in reality.
# This movie feels more like a Netflix original since after all, it is a Netflix TV series.
#There aren't that many original scores composed by John Powell and Heitor Pereira as most of the songs are borrowed from other movies.
#Bad Release Date: The film came out one week after The Lego Ninjago Movie 2: An Unexpected Vacation.
#Much like Earth To Luna: The Movie, the film can be a bit unnecesary. To summarize, by the end of the 2nd season of Hilda, Hilda became a troll. But somehow, the film is proclaimed to take place after the events of season 1.
#It's sequel is somehow not that good.
