Hey movie fans and anime lovers
I am here to give a review on a movie I never thought I would eventually fall partially in love with, the reason being that I don't do animated videos but this one got me hooked right from the first scene. It's a movie that's entertaining, filled with humour, romance, and high spirited.
I have been debating with myself about doing a review but here I am after about 2 weeks of seeing the movie.

Entergalactic is about an ambitious and talented young artist named Jabari who secured a job at a comic company, to bring the character Mr. Rager to life through comics. After displaying his artwork through graffiti on the street walls, then he moved to into his dream apartment in Manhattan, encountered his ex, got the chance to fall in love, screwed up and made amends.

JABARI
Jabari is an ambitious young man with two friends, Ky and Jimmy and together they play a supporting role in the movie. They were like his ride or die.
They gave both the worst and the best advice, they were screwed up in their own way.

Despite that, they got his back, burnt blunt together, and travelled their world while enjoying the parties and weird lifestyle. Frankly speaking, I enjoyed every scene they popped in.

Mr. Ranger
A dark art, some might say, but I see the humor in Mr. Rager, a fun and clever character.
One reason why I love Mr. Rager was the fact that Jabari could relate to his art, fantasizing about conversations with Mr. Rager, I could literally envision myself in his place.
I also love the fact that Jabari didn't change Mr. Rager despite the words of his colleague at work, he understood what he stood for, this can relate to what we see playing out in the world today, everybody wants to fit in forgetting that it's their uniqueness that makes them stand out, and the world needs your uniqueness.

JABARI ~ MEADOW
Their love story is indeed what we see playing out almost every day, people being afraid to go in for what they want, being afraid of embracing their feelings, and doubting what they want.
We do that a lot, we run away from issues, afraid of the answers we will get even if they will be in our favor or not. Sometimes all we just need to get on is to face what we fear.
Ask questions if need be, but try not to assume in every situation.
A wise man once said assumption is the mother of frustration.
I also loved the fact that Jabari realized what he really wants, owned up to his mistakes, and made his intentions known.

I love how they are in sync with each other, a fact I took from their love story is how they could flow because they are on the same frequency, from drawing blunt together to encouraging themselves about their work and being fans of each other.

In all, sometimes we don't know what we want and who we want to be with until that one person comes along and gives us every reason to be with them.
Sometimes we don't plan how we fall in love, but we should be intentional if we want to keep it real.
The Love I admire is the one that happens accidentally.

The background songs will get you nodding along as you vibe with the movie, the songs are in line with every scene, I understand every scene where Jabari was swimming in his world, traveling through different episodes right before his eyes with his blunt, I feel like I could relate with it because I am the type that could get lost in my Imaginations. The scene where they are clouded on 9, and every song by kid Cudi complemented the different scenes.
The songs, the gadget, the slang, and the theme, are all up to date.

The storyline is amazing, it relates to what is happening in today's modern world, trying to thrive in whatever you have going on in your life, Love just happens to pass by and give you a knock, afraid of the feeling, sometimes we try to slam the door at it, make a mistake that will try to ruin it, but sometimes, the heart wants what the heart wants, it's your choice to pick the call,
Either way, you heal or you hurt.
