Finished watching Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, director by David Soren and starring Kevin Hart, Thomas Middleditch, Ed Helms and Jordan Peele. The film opens with school friends George (Kevin Hart) and Harold (Thomas Middleditch) who create their own comics in their spear time about the hero Captain Underpants. While at school the two constantly find themselves in trouble with their principal, Mr Krupp (Ed Helms) who threatens to separate the two after being fed up with the multiple pranks the pair orchestrate. However one day at a school science fair the two friends tamper with fellow student Melvin (Jordan Peele) invention, the Turbo Toilet which puts the back into Krupp's office where they find the items that Krupp has confiscated including a hypno ring that George uses on Krupp which surprisingly works, leading to the boys to make Krupp think he's Captain Underpants which comes with it new problems the two friends have to face. Overall this was a good film as it brings the world of the book series to life very well as it surprising keeps most of the features for the book series that work extremely well within the context of the film while also giving some great comedic moments. There is some great character development for most of the films cast as George and Harold grow as characters in a surprising coming of age like story with how the two's friendship is at risk by their principal who wants to separate them while also having to deal with Captain Underpants by trying to stop him from getting into trouble all the time. 7.5/10.
