Ahem...

"Chloe was cited as the most unnecessary and gratuitous shill of a character ever included in a film adaptation for an existing franchise that was ever conceived, the dedicated existing fanbase proceeded to defame this film with the same level of scrutiny that the fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender had for M Night Shyamalan's box office bomb, which escalated to many staged protesting events and loud winded necktie-wearing internet reviewers on youtube flying into frothy speeches decrying the producers and demanding that their film careers be put to an end. But the dedicated fans were so starved for a major length motion picture spinoff that they ate up pretty much any scraps that could be had from this production, even off the cutting room floor. Criticism in addition to harshly judging the deviation from the source material with the addition of a completely unnecessary character also commonly brought up that the movie would have been far better off produced in the original video game's country of origin, with considerably more faith being held in French animated cinema as a whole. Frederic Savoir, creative head of Amazing Digital Studios went on to state that he wished the creative team would have given him and his ex partner Eric Chahi more say in the product. "Regretfully, they gave us an early copy of what would eventually become the film's script. I requested that they change several aspects of the project, but never received any written conformation that they would honor my request. Judging by what the fans have been saying on facebook and twitter, I have assumed that my requests have gone unanswered, and after feeling a piece of me die during a viewing of the trailer, will not be watching the resulting film any time soon." In the end, the film to fans of the highly regarded Heart of Darkness extended universe would be long regarded as a "so bad it's good" piece, that despite the infamous reputation and questionable deviation from the source material provided a lovable family romp with delightful acting on the part of lead actor Jaeden Lieberher, and the majority of the supporting cast. Just be sure to have a bottle of Whisky on hand." 06/10 The Finsterhund times, July 2019
