We've seen movies based on board games to emojis and virtually everything in between but just when you thought the well of creativity in Hollywood couldn't run any drier, along comes a family-friendly animated movie about biscuits to prove everybody wrong. F**king biscuits!

The premise of Animal Crackers is just as ridiculous and depressing as you imagined it would be; a family inherit a circus (as you do, apparently) and find a magical box of the titular snack that turns people into the animal they have just eaten. Hijinks will ensue, characters will learn important life lessons and everything will result in a happy ending, no doubt.

If you think that's bonkers, wait until you see who is starring in this thing. Real-life couple John Krasinski and Emily Blunt play the leads, Ian McKellen takes the role of main villain while the rest of the cast is a who's who of what-the-f**kery that includes Danny DeVito, Sylvester Stallone, Patrick Warburton and Gilbert Gottfried of all people.

Outside of the sheer curiosity factor, in an increasingly-crowded market for animation this movie is surely destined to bomb, even with a budget of just $17m. Animal Crackers hits theaters on April 27, not than anyone really cares.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
