The Powerpuff Girls Movie Movie Review 2002

Blossom, Buttercup, and Bubbles hit the big screen. The big-eyed trio of superpowered kindergartners came into existence after a botched science experiment by Professor Utonium, who mixed his sugar, spice, and everything nice recipe with a little Chemical X (thanks to Jojo the lab chimp). The "X" factor has left the seemingly normal tots with super powers. After a mishap leaves their father/creator in jail, the girls join up with Jojo (voice of Jackson), who since has been genetically altered by Chemical X himself and acquired a taste for world domination, unbeknownst to the Power Pack. Runs a bit long, but creator/director McCracken's cool retro animation, fast-paced editing, and satiric fun makes the spunky girls' action-packed film debut a winner with kids and adults alike.
