Ron’s Gone Wrong was a cute little film. It had a great moral to the story, which every child that has their own phone can certainly relate to. Social media has done wonders for communication but on the flip side, it’s so much easier now to bully. It happens every day and kids need to be shown what can happen and how to handle themselves.
[su_spoiler title=”Plot (Spoilers)”]Twentieth Century Studios and Locksmith Animation’s “Ron’s Gone Wrong” is the story of Barney, a socially awkward middle-schooler, and Ron, his new walking, talking, digitally-connected device, which is supposed to be his ‘Best Friend out of the Box.’ Ron’s hilarious malfunctions, set against the backdrop of the social media age, launch them into an action-packed journey in which boy and robot come to terms with the wonderful messiness of true friendship.[/su_spoiler]

In my theater, there were a number of families watching with me. From my observations, children above seven will enjoy and understand it. Any younger than that, I noticed they fell asleep. Also, I feel that it’s too childish for teenagers. So we’ll say between seven and twelve would be the perfect ages to get the most out of it.
I do many visits up to Asheville, North Carolina each year. That is where RunPee Dan, creator/owner/president and all-around pain in my arse resides upon his porcelain throne. (Also known as my brother, older brother…much older brother) Our family loves to watch movies together. On my most recent visit, we watched The Mitchells vs. the Machines. That movie is very close to Ron’s Gone Wrong. It’s almost the same movie. I feel that ‘The Mitchells’ was much funnier and more engaging. This movie was still cute and I would recommend it for the younger crowd.
Grade: B+

What people are saying about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
