Ron Débloque

If you look at the basic story skeleton of the film and the constellation of characters, Ron’s Gone Wrong offers nothing new, but the "skeleton" is wrapped in a charming and highly topical package, which makes the film an apt and humorous affair. I was incredibly entertained during the 100-minute running time, but I was also moved at the same time. The instructive line pointing out the dangerous dependence on technology, which goes hand in hand with the growing communication gap, did not leave me cold either. The biggest portion of entertainment, besides the "defective" Ron, was of course provided by Grandma Donka and Martina the goat, who gave my diaphragm a solid workout. A nice and non-violent presentation of all the possible pitfalls within Generation Z. (30/10/2021)

I’m a stalwart opponent of social media sharing, so I gathered all my willpower, removed all sharp objects from my reach, and watched the utopian struggle of an individual against the facebook-oid corporation. I’m not sure why this cartoon was made. I don’t think anyone will take its message seriously, and the creators must have been aware of that. After all, if most people put down their smartphones, they wouldn't even be able to wipe their asses because they wouldn't have access to the necessary app. So, while it was funny at times, it was also pretty melodramatic, predictable, and generated a moral lesson that no one will care about.
