If there is one drawback, it's that it's now all over and we didn't get an entire season, just a little less than an hour and a half. However, as is the style of Venture Bros, rather than look backward and attempt to tie up every loose end in a bout of fan service, this movie takes the show in yet another direction. Rather than parade all your favorite characters back around for little more than a callback, they introduce a few interesting, key characters that drive the whole story. It's funny and rendered flawlessly -- the show has looked better and better season after season, and it culminates in beauty that is this movie's animation. The short scene with Dr. Mrs. The Monarch escaping over the Hudson on Daisy, Red Death's Mecha-Horse, is evidence enough that the creators and artists involved have mastered their form and the we are witnessing a star burning out with the end of this show. It's engrossing and avoids sentimentality in favor for the goofy, droll humor we all know and love about Venture Bros. Yet, without trying, it is sentimental, it is a sad farewell, and this may have the only post-credit scene that makes you somberly smile more than it makes you laugh. A great 20 years and a fantastic conclusion.

A fitting, beautifully animated end
Better than Sharky's Machine
9/10! I laughed through this movie. Great jokes, callbacks, and references. My only complaint was that it ended. Not all loose ends were tied up, thankfully. Gave it a 9 only because it was far too short for the grand spectacle that is the Venture Bros. Doc and Jackson made a solid piece of cinematic history! They have always held the delicate balance of topical references, intelligent humor and not so intelligent humor, and a true love for that which is their child. This did not feel like a good bye, but only the end of a chapter. They've left even more riddles to unravel. For as many 20 year old questions they answered, there are still 20 more years worth to answer! The blood of the baboon heart was truly radiant!
Perfection
The culmination of twenty years of quintessential character development, standard setting writing, and visual storytelling at its finest. Thank you Doc Hammer and Jackson Publick. Y'all have created a work of art that encapsulates the best and worse of humanity. From innocence & failure to the growth that comes with acceptance, The Venture bros. Is now the bar for serialized storytelling. From ingenious & palpable dialogue that captures the deep rooted insecurities and their associated overcompensation's to the mesmerizing backstories for even the most unsuspecting of background characters, The Venture Bros. Has managed to perfect storytelling as an art. Please do yourself a favor and watch this full series and tie up film. You won't regret it. Thanks again for the 20 years of eating for the next part of the story, for once it was actually worth it!
