Description

This week, Jordan Morris (Jordan, Jesse, Go!, the new graphic novel Bubble) comes back to the cast for a decidedly cursed double feature to end 2021: Wild Hogs and The Ant Bully! In Wild Hogs, Travolta plays second fiddle to Tim Allen, alongside Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy as a quartet of sad, middle-aged weekend warriors who flee their hen-pecking wives for a wild cross-country road trip on their hogs. Naturally, this means 100 minutes of saggy gay panic jokes and boomer humor so achingly bad you'll beg for this one to end just like Easy Rider.  Then there's The Ant Bully, a Jimmy Neutron-inflected CG adaptation of a children's book that sees Cage in his most normal, regular-guy role yet: a wizard ant with magic powers who shrinks a ten-year-old boy to the size of an ant to teach him a lesson in humility. The effects are marginally charming, even if the human models look like porous hell-creatures intent on consuming our skin for sustenance.
