Little Johnny the Movie (2011) Reviews

  • reminiscent of those old Merry Melodies cartoons

    gregking42011-03-31

    We've all heard some of those "little Johnny" jokes; now we can discover their origin. Little Johnny is a new animated biopic cum mockumentary that discovers the "real boy" behind the jokes, and also looks at his dysfunctional family that provided the inspiration for much of the timeless humour. The film itself is the brainchild of Ralph Moser, his co-director Dean Murphy, and screenwriter Stewart Fainchey, who have a long established partnership. The three have worked together on a number of films, including two with Paul Hogan - Strange Bedfellows and the recent Charlie And Boots. Moser comes from a background in production design, having worked on a number of local productions, including Let's Get Skase, Sensitive New Age Killer, Hating Alison Ashley, and Till Human Voices Wake Us. Moser also experienced working on large scale Hollywood productions, including Where The Wild Things Are, which was filmed in Melbourne, and Russell Mulcahy's television remake of On The Beach. He makes his directorial debut with Little Johnny, and his background certainly helps shape the look of the film. Little Johnny is deliberately very retro in style, and the animation is reminiscent of those old Merry Melodies cartoons and Saturday afternoon matinees. This is in keeping with the old fashioned feel of the film, which is set in a more innocent time. However, Little Johnny is certainly not for young kids, given the level of profanity, and ribald adult humour. This is more Fritz The Cat than Bugs Bunny! Little Johnny is set in the small town of Gallangatta, and introduces us to Johnny, his younger brother and his ultra-conservative parents. The film itself is little more than a string of jokes – many of them rude, most familiar, and some very funny. Thus we get Johnny at home, Johnny at school, Johnny hanging out with his best friend Roger, and Johnny down on the farm with his uncle Kev. These scenarios all lend themselves effortlessly to a string of punch lines. But what passes for narrative here offers another variation on the classic coming of age tale as Johnny tries to win the affection of classmate Mary (voiced by Eloise Grace), and woo her away from his rival, the handsome rebel Jason. His only chance of success is by winning the annual billy cart race. And his mentor Uncle Kevin tries to save his farm from becoming insolvent due to his inability to repay a bank loan. Legendary comedian Kevin Wilson provides the voice of Uncle Kev, who swears like a trooper, and he is basically playing himself on screen as a lovable Australian larrikin. In much the same way that Nancy Cartwright provides the distinctive voice for Bart Simpson in the long running cartoon series, a female provides the voice for the title character here. Genevieve Morris, who is better known to television audiences as Barbara in the series of ANZ bank ads, is perfectly cast as little Johnny, and plays him with an irreverent sense of humour that is engaging. Little Johnny has its flaws, but many will find it a moderately amusing film.

  • Kevin Bloody Wilson Made A Movie!

    mag65812011-09-07

    Having made Kevin 'Bloody' Wilson's Christmas album pretty much compulsory annual listening I was curious as to what would happen ought said inspiration result in a cartoon. Unfamiliar myself with the whole 'Little Johnny' series of jokes, I kind of went on into this one based solely on an idea of Wilson's humour. There I was not disappointed. If you want to see dunny gags and schoolchildren using the F-word inappropriately this is going to be quite (and repeatedly) rewarding and on this basis alone I wholeheartedly recommend it. That said, it's a bit long. To meet feature length, they really pushed their 80 minutes, but a 45 minute 'special' on one of those FoxTel channels that doesn't mind the foul language might have been a better bet (and maybe better funded!). A series of amusing but non-topical jokes and some antics involving a rooster pad the time but detract (my partner fell asleep) from the core premise of the work: Johnny wants to win a go-cart race to get the girl. That last bit does go entertainingly well besides the maddening insistence to apply Motion- rendered DOF to animation. I like my cartoons depth-of-field free. There's a few tasteless but yet chronically appropriate ethnic jokes (and I think one gay one) and it makes families from the 1960's a bit less spank-happy when they were (I grew up in the late 1970's and had my hide tanned seemingly daily for crying out loud!) but generally, it was a fun if perhaps unnecessarily extended ride, and I give it 7 out of 10.

  • Funny, Crude, but "VERY ENJOYABLE"

    michaelradny2011-08-05

    There isn't much to say about "Little Johnny", but this ultra-funny cartoon spoof of Australian life really give you a good laugh. It is both entertaining and amazing to watch. The Little Johnny jokes are passed around in this movie so much that it just makes you laugh until you explode. It is one of the best Aussie Animations I have seen in a long time and it sure does deserve the support of the Australians to make this an ultimate classic. When I went to watch this film, I was expecting corny and horrific language throughout. But I was pleasantly surprised when it used creative humor to make you feel good inside. This is the best comedy out there at the moment. Fantastic movie, I give it a 5/5. - Michael Radny

  • Hilarious movie filled with vulgar and crude jokes

    Lugewi2012-04-21

    Let's get some things straight, this movie ain't for those sensitive types of people. Hell no, "Little Johnny the Movie" aims to outrageously make people cringe at the sounds of those aimless jokes. Vulgarity aside, this movie is pretty funny. Jokes about sex, love, family, and whole lot of other stuff make it worthwhile to watch. It's like an Australian version of South Park but doesn't seem too preachy. The movie doesn't take itself too seriously which makes it more fun. It has silly moments and even sillier characters. Now the plot itself is simple enough. Johnny wants to win the Soapbox Derby to buy himself a bike to win over his love. But problems arose when his Uncle has no more money for the farm and Johnny's intentions on winning suddenly shift to saving his uncle's life. The accents may ward off some viewers though. You can clearly hear the thick Australian accents from the voice actors which may confuse some. But aside from that, this movie is a recommended viewing over and over again.

  • Funny but not for children !

    master-darkboy2011-12-01

    Before watching this Comedy Animation i was just expecting a weak movie but when i see it I found out that this is one of the greatest Comedy Animation titles that of course you can enjoy but it certainly isn't suitable for children because of it's content . This animation is full of the jokes that we all are interested in . Besides what this movie is trying to show is not just what it looks like . It has a whole different main idea that it wanna show the effort of a boy who is trying to win a race and be able to purchase his favorite Bicycle and help his uncle. Except the Simple Graphic work , This Movie is just Beautiful and Of course they have a long way to make this movies general.
