The Drawn Together Movie: The Movie!, also referred to as Drawn Together: The Movie, is a 2010 animated movie based on Drawn Together, and was made as a series finale of sorts.

Plot

3 years after the Drawn Together show has been canceled, and has been replaced by the Suck My Taint Show, a parody of South Park, the cast finds themselves being hunted down by the CEO of their studio, who is looking to kill them. To survive, they must travel to, "Make-A-Point Land", in hopes of finding a reason to be able to live.

Why It's Not Drawn Together

  1. The animation is horrible and a huge downgrade from the TV show, it is particularly horrible at certain parts of the movie, such as the scenes at Disney World, there is also a photoshop scene of Wooldoor exposing his genitalia.
    • The reason the animation is horrible in this movie is because it is animated using Adobe Flash animation domestically, instead of being animated by the famous Rough Draft Studios like the show was, explaining the low quality.
    • This is not an attack on Six Point Harness, especially since they did animate the original 2003 pilot. It's just the materials they were given were just garbage.
  2. The nudity is so bad and forced, especially in parts where it just was not necessary, that it is in a league of its own. The most infamous is the 3D sex scene towards the end of the movie, which is actually a selling point on the DVD.
    • The film even has child pornography, since Sara of Suck My Taint Show, who is a minor, constantly shows the spot between her anus and vagina in the scenes where the show is being recorded. It can also be the same thing when she is making out with her husband, who's not only older than her but is also the main villain!
  3. The film insults South Park with how it includes a poorly-made parody and several references to the aforementioned show. It also constantly rips off South Park, except without its charm and humor and it even goes as far as to blame the aforementioned show for Drawn Together's cancellation.
    • This is also hypocritical, as both South Park and Drawn Together shows are made by Comedy Central.
    • This movie's overall plot is the creator's backlash at the show's cancellation and the alleged favoritism to South Park by Comedy Central.
  4. The humor has been downgraded from mean-spirited yet creative and funny from the TV Show to outright forced, disgusting, and gross in this film as most of the jokes are tasteless and unfunny.
    • There is a very digusting scene where the rocket that is styled like a corn has poop falling down the bottom.
  5. The film is very boring at times, notably in the scene where the Drawn Together gang is listening to the director's commentary to figure out how to get out of a sinking carriage. It is one long scene that drags on for too long where the directors are talking with barely any animation in the background. The gang makes some comments on the commentary here and there.
  6. The villain's backstory has a huge plot hole: he claims his family had a car accident after seeing a billboard advertising Drawn Together. While this is based on a real event that happened when the show was airing, the villain wasn't there when it happened, so he just blamed the Drawn Together gang when he could have just assumed they crashed for some other reason, and none of the trouble would have happened.
    • The villain's backstory also has too much going on at once with his wife and daughter dying by falling into a radioactive lake full of crocodiles.
  7. The movie recycles audio clips of the characters screaming, which can get repetitive.
  8. Several creepy and unsettling facial expressions.
  9. Ling-Ling is seriously misused. In the show, he was a homicidal battle monster who could generate energy and electricity attacks, but in the movie, he does absolutely nothing useful.
  10. Captain Hero is frequently seen making out with a corpse he stole, during the middle of a funeral, which he calls "Molly", which is necrophilia.
    • Things get more disgusting with how the corpse also slowly rots as well.
  11. The movie fails at mocking other works. For example, in the prologue, not only does Toot indirectly call Barney Rubble "gay", but the said character even gets run over, and it keeps going south from there.
  12. Wooldoor Sockbat has been dumbed down from a reckless yet nice, innocent, and fun-loving member of the Drawn Together gang from the TV show, into a complete psychopathic nervous wreck, and he's the most desperate to get back on the air in the film.
  13. There are several plot holes throughout the movie, such as in the scene where Foxxy shoots the old man at the carnival, she calls him "Mr. Wilkison", but in the subsequent scene, where his wife attacks her, she calls her "Mrs. Wilkins".
  14. Toot's "fetus" resembles Barney's son Bamm-Bamm from The Flintstones series, Bamm-Bamm was adopted.
    • Speaking of which, the scene where Toot shoots Bamm-Bamm from her vagina is both immature and disgusting.
  15. This film overall is an apathetic and disappointing way to end the series, and ruined any chance of the show, having a new season.
    • This is made even more insulting by the ending of the film where Spanky steps on an eraser bomb, and outright kills the entire Drawn Together gang.
  16. The title says "The Movie" twice. It should have been more fine if it just either titled "The Drawn Together Movie!" or "Drawn Together: The Movie!".
  17. There was too much violence against women in this movie. (e.g. Clara getting her hands chopped away and later killed), had it released today, it would have triggered #MeToo to protest the movie.

Redeeming Qualities

  1. This is the first time Drawn Together goes widescreen high-definition, despite the awful animation.
  2. The climax with the characters escaping an explosion is actually kind of cool.
  3. The voice acting is amazing since the original cast is still present, along with other voice actors such as Seth MacFarlane.
  4. Despite the film being a failure, and killed off the series having a new season, the cast did enjoy making the movie.
  5. Suck My Taint Girl's theme song is kind of catchy.
  6. Despite the film not being animated by Rough Draft Studios, it was nice to see them get a special thanks in the credits.
  7. Vernon Wells (Power Rangers Time Force) shows off his humorous side, despite being the villain.
  8. There are still some occasional funny moments here and there.

Reception

The Drawn Together Movie: The Movie! received negative reviews from critics and fans of the series. Despite negative reception, the film currently holds a 6.2/10 on IMDb.
