I had the privilege of seeing this film on the BIG screen. It is a visual delight! The characters are fun and quirky and MEAD himself is adorable! It is action-packed and keeps the viewer engaged throughout. I would highly recommend to everyone but especially sci-fi fans.

MEAD is one of the most refreshing independent science fiction films in years. In an era when most of the genre has been overrun by dreary post-apocalyptic nihilism or depressing dystopian parables, this is a vibrant and humorous space opera with likable protagonists and an interesting villain to boot. The story, based on the underground comic book "Fever Dreams" from 1972, follows a pair of outlaws--the symbiotically linked human Friz (Samuel Hunt) and his robot/spaceship MEAD (voiced by Patton Oswalt)--as they flee from the zealous Admiral Gillette (Robert Picardo), who has a personal grudge against the pair. MEAD has the unique ability to project illusions to trick his enemies--illusions that Friz must first imagine. Together, they use this ability to evade would-be captors and stay alive. Along the way, they pick up a fellow outlaw named Phoebe (Lillie Young), who begrudgingly joins them as they set off to steal fuel from a military base on Ganymede. What follows is one of the funniest scenes in the entire film, as they use illusions of a teddy bear, a tyrannosaurus, pteranodons, and a giant toy robot named Timmy the Wunderbot (voiced by Patrick Warburton) to distract military forces and steal the necessary fuel cells. The trio flees and Admiral Gillette sets after them in an enormous spaceship named Achilles. What the pair doesn't know is that Gillette has brought with a special new helmet that allows him to see through their illusions and instruct his crew how to properly fight the outlaws. A cat-and-mouse firefight ensues, leading to a climax that's one of the most exciting--and surprisingly emotional--scenes in the entire film. I was fortunate enough experience this in the movie theater with a live audience, where several of the patrons were actually crying during the final scene. I don't know if the film will be playing in theaters again any time soon, but if the opportunity arises, know that this is the best way to experience it--MEAD dazzles on the big screen. Some technical elements of the film are a little rough around the edges, to be sure, but those are to be expected from an independent production of this scale and budget. To compare its visuals and music unfavorably to movies like Dune (2021) or the recent Disney Star Wars entrees seems to be missing some critical qualifications of how to critique movies. Small productions like MEAD shouldn't be kicked to the ground (as I'm sorry to see some other reviewers have done) for aiming high and not quite hitting all of their marks. On the contrary, we should hold big studios more accountable for recycling the same I. P. again and again, polishing it with all of the finest special effects and music that Hollywood money can buy, and serving us the same recycled tripe for every meal. For all of its imperfections, I'd take another 10 films with the imagination and ambition of MEAD for every Marvel film of the past decade. If that's the kind of thing you're after, look elsewhere. Otherwise, MEAD may be just the thing for you.

If you love the qwirky out landish makings of the older sifi movies and shows you are gonna love this movie. You will recognize acting greats like Robert Pichardo, Patton Oswald, and Patrick Warburton and fall in love with new faces such as Kassie Wright, Lillie and Shawn Young. It's hard to believe that this is a totally animated movie and was filmed completely in green screen. Not to mention it was created by one guy.

Extremely uneven results in the creative talents. Patton Oswalt carries the whole movie - without him the movie would be a big fat zero. Oswalt, Picardo and Warburton are shining examples of the importance of good comic supporting actors. The actors that played Fritz, Tam and Phoebe are prime examples of actors in lead roles with no charisma; I'm assuming that after hiring Oswalt, Picardo and Warburton there was no budget left to hire experienced, even fairly well known lead actors. Why else would they hire actors with such mediocre resumes? The CGI, which there was plenty of, was on the surface good if you didn't look too closely. The plot had great potential but was let down by the script's lackluster dialog. The direction suffered from poor pacing - sometimes glossing over areas that were hurried along and other parts that seemed to drag. A bigger budget might have helped to refine the script and hire a better director and lead actors. The CGI makes the movie heavy on eye candy attraction and the character actors mentioned already give the movie a generous feel-good vibe and keep it from being a total loss. In general, the limitations of this movie will be better overlooked by a younger audience. The ending invites a sequel; but unless a larger budget can address it's problems properly there won't be a Meade 2.

This is a popcorn munching, extremely fun viewing experience that is wildly entertaining. As a comic book / sci fi-fantasy geek, I can truly appreciate the heart and soul that went into the production of this film. Live action cast immersed in an animated world is a unique way of story telling that shouldn't be missed. Well done!

Mead is a film based on a 1972 Comic book and I think the creators did an excellent job capturing the essence of this vintage comic and I gladly give this film 10 stars! To be clear, Mead, as any film, will be delightfully entertaining to some and lame to others; it is all a matter of personal taste. Face it, not everyone likes The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but those who do don't just like it, they love it. I think that is the future of this film: Mead will become a cult classic! With it's cheeky humor and 1970's inspired villain vs hero battles, all on the backdrop of lost love found again, this film is sure to appeal to anyone, such as myself, who enjoyed the original Star Trek series.

Elements of humor, action, romance, and sci-fi expertlycrafted into a great film. The events easly flow throughout the movie making it easy to watch. Love Mead and Timmy the Robot characters. The opening left at the end for future films keeps me hopeful for more to come.

I thought Mead was a great experience! I enjoyed the movie immensely! All of the animation was top-notch and flowed well. The concept was unique and enjoyable. I always love to hear Patrick Warburton! I love his voice and the timber it brings. Robert Picardo provided many examples of great comic timing and was a great addition to the cast. We got it on Vudu and have already watched it a couple of times!

MEAD is the most incredible. Sci-fi movie / robot very refreshing! The graphics and music are so awesome to watch and listen to. What an epic cast of actors intriguing, funny, witty and talented the movie definitely had my attention and curiosity as to what would happen next! I'll be watching several times and you will too. Enjoy!
