Wendell & Wild
Two scheming demons strike a deal with a punk rock-loving teen so they can leave the Underworld and live out their dreams in the Land of the Living.
Critics Sentiment
Raul uses cream to resurrect Kat's parents
Brothers revive dead council members for Klaxons
The film jumps from its most confusing and overstuffed section with the zombie council plot to its most emotionally resonant moment when Kat reunites with her resurrected parents.
Wendell & Wild starts strong with praised animation and character design but suffers from an overstuffed middle section that jugggles too many subplots. The emotional core around Kat's trauma and family reunion provides the film's highest points, though critics consistently noted the rushed pacing and underdeveloped characters throughout.
