MOVIE REVIEW: Teen Titans Go! To The Movies

My nieces were excited when I told them that I had screening tickets for this movie. I absolutely had no idea who and what the Teen Titans are except I saw them in passing on ads on cable TV. I brought the two girls with me and I was pleasantly surprised. Teen Titans Go! To The Movies is the most Marvel among all the DC films there is.
Led by Robin (voiced by Scott Menville) forever in the shadow of Batman (voiced by Will Arnett), the Teen Titans must prove that they are worthy to have a movie of their own and step out of the shadows of DC's most popular superheroes. The Boy Wonder is supported by characters such as Raven, Starfire, Beast Boy and Cyborg. The team each have their own unique superpowers but they are still in search for that big break for them to be popular. There is enough humor for all ages: from the physical slapstick ones for the kids as well as some deep pop culture references for the adults. I loved it when they make fun of themselves and was shocked when they injected jokes really intended for the parents. 
The animated film is full of color and it reminded me of the Powerpuff Girls and that is a compliment. Teen Titans Go! To The Movies ranks alongside with the Incredibles 2 as the best animated films so far of 2018.
