By popular demand, here is the movie-that-shouldn't-be: Nimona. Released back in June of 2023, Nimona follows a story of a knight framed for murder, to prove his innocence he has to team up with a shape-shifting teen who will help him and the kingdom find out the truth about everything they know.
Eight years in the making: The graphic novel-turned-movie, Nimona, would be proof of miracles as the animated film was brought back from the dead by the one and only Netflix. Initially developed by BlueSky Studios (RIP), Disney would pull the rug right under their feet as they chose to not only shut down the company, but to also cancel their passion-project, 75% from completion. Luckily Nimona would get picked up by another competitor in Netflix--and the rest is history.
Saw this movie a while back when it came out but felt like I didn't really have much to say about it lol but hey; you asked for it, you're gonna get it! Let's take a closer look at ̶B̶l̶u̶e̶S̶k̶y̶ // ̶D̶i̶s̶n̶e̶y̶// Netflix's: Nimona!

Nimona is honestly too good for modern Disney. I had been following this movie's production since it was announced and was extremely happy Netflix revived it! It was well worth the wait with its strong story, excellent animation, and epic soundtrack! That line about the whole kingdom wanting to run a sword through Nimona's heart and her saying "sometimes I just wanna let them" and then later attempting to do just that to herself emotionally impacted me so much; no way Disney would've ever allowed something like that in one of their movies nowadays

when I first heard about Nimona's abilities I didn't get it, how and why does she shapeshift? until I saw it, and made this conclusion she's a being made of pure energy energy is unstable, it has no base form, it can't die, it can't age, ect.
@rhearoo3081 2 місяці тому
I still don't understand the shape-shifting. I felt like Nimona's story didn't flesh her out enough, in my opinion. I kept wondering if there were more shape shifters and how they came to be. Why are they so powerful? Like Nimona was nearly invincible, so where is the danger? I didn't read the novel, so I just guessed there was more explanation there. Is Nimona the only one? Is there a true form? Why can't Bal ask about the shape-shifting? Most people would be shocked if they saw powers like that. I thought the movie was ok, but I feel like a series could have added more, maybe.

I find this movie to be a great example of how to portray lgbt+ characters. The knights for example, Ballister and Ambrosius are gay and what drives them to each other is their love for one another, but it’s not showed as a sexual attraction as most films usually portray. It’s more of an actually relationship between two individuals that does not depend on their sexuality to work. They are men who were trained to be knights so they aren’t overly flirtatious yet somehow they still charm each other. Although sadly this hasn’y been given enough screen time, I admire what the filmmakers did. On another note, the art style and design of this film is staggeringly amazing. The world is amazing and they all blend with one another yet are distinct enough to be easily pointed out. One take away that I wanted to address in the end is the story, I just wish they could have explained more on the characters backgrounds and how they came to be. Their motivations just seem to be THERE and not something that CAME TO BE. If they showed more of the characters background I don’t think I’ll have any complaints. To be fair, they did show us enough to have the story make sense to the audience. Overall, I’ll give this movie a 8/10. I love this movie and I can’t wait for the makers to create something similarly creative.
@moon7shinev150 2 місяці тому
Ballister and Ambrosius are like Charlie and Vaggie from Hazbin Hotel. They aren’t all over each other and flirting instead we see their relationship through things like gestures and small touches. They’re people in an already established relationship so they don’t feel the need to be all over each other

Overall a great review. The movie definitely had some plot holes, such as their plan to just confront the director with the evidence. But one thing I totally disagree with is the idea that Nimona's story overtook Ballister's story. The movie is called "NImona". The movie is about her. So it makes perfect sense that she is the main storyline. The backdoor way they make it happen by having Ballister's story in it is honestly part of the genius of the movie. We're really here to care about Nimona; Ballister is the side character. As for his plotline...it does resolve itself. He and Ambrosious stay together in a happier, more trusting, more open kingdom. That, to me, is a satisfying ending for his story.

I really like how Nimona isn’t fully explained. The story she tells was meant to be close but also a lie. While we don’t see some kind of start when we see what actually happened with Gloria. She’s just this spirit or something that takes whatever form it feels like. It would be cool to have more movies like that. Like with Groundhogday too. It doesn’t matter how the weird thing works, it’s about the characters.
@berengerdietiker22 2 місяці тому
"Nimona," is one of the best original animated films on Netflix. The only things about it that don't make sense is Gloreth's betrayal of Nimona in Nimona's flashback and the ending doesn't fit the overall tone of the film. Gloreth took her parents' and villagers' side when she already knew about Nimona's shapeshifting abilities and befriended her anyway! The alternate ending for the film that was ultimately scrapped would've been better than the final cut, as it cements Nimona's and Ballister's relationship as friends or maybe as surrogate father and daughter.
@carlosaguirre9834 2 місяці тому
I actually like the way Gloreth "turns" on Nimona. The whole interaction represents how society's unfounded fear of difference gets passed on. Children like Gloreth don't fear Nimona until they are TAUGHT to fear her. Even though she has known no reason to fear Nimona, her family and society tell her Nimona is a threat. So she's going to learn that. And that's how it is with with people and difference in the real world, as in, LGBT+ people. Perhaps the movie could have had more instances of the parents telling her to stay away from Nimona, but really it's all the same. Kids don't inherently carry this fear and hatred. People teach it to them.
@trappedinmymind485 2 місяці тому
Imo Gloreth’s betrayal makes perfect sense. She’s a kid, and most kids look up to their parents for everything. Trust their parents judgement, even if they don’t understand. Do you know how many childhood friendships have been broken up because “my parents don’t want me to play with you anymore”? It doesn’t take a lot for a parent to convince their young child of something.

So Ambrosius is...a really bad boyfriend. The dude didn't even bother investigating the Queen's assassination to prove Bal's innocence or, if he was guilty, to make sure he did not have co-conspirators. He spends his time acting jealous of Nimona, whom Bal is only hanging out because Ambro wouldn't help him. Then Ambro chooses to believe the Director over Bal. Even when Ambro says it's only Nimona's fault, the Director is STILL declaring Bal a villain so rather than arrest the Director Ambro just turned around and let her continue to spew that Bal is a villain? He SAW she had BALLISTER'S SWORD and he STILL was too stupid to think that was suspicious!!! Nevermind how it makes no sense for Nimona to have shapeshifted the Queen when she was busy being Ambro and Bal could verify this because HE FILMED IT. Ambro couldn't even stop the Director in the end so...what good did he even DO in the movie? Bal deserved so much better. Frat guy Todd could have been cut entirely. He was doing the Joss Whedon bathos in every scene, undercutting the drama with him spewing moronic crap like durrrrr wut's a whale. Derp a durr, doop a doo, we get it, he's stupid and mean and mean and stupid. It was really out of character for such an idiot to be the one to track down the hideout, because the dude is so stupid he would forget how to walk or something before he could sneak up on them. I liked Nimona and Bal's dynamic, although their third act breakup was rather trite and ended up harming their making up. But the mystery of the assassination was way too sloppy and Ambrosius being frankly awful and never getting called out on it was underwhelming.

To be fair, it is kind of hard to just instant break a concept that has been hard set into society for hundreds of years, I mean hell, we can look at modern day society for perfect parallels. Look at how minorities are treated to this day because of old stigmas from hundreds to thousands of years ago, look at the hold the church has on society to this day because of precedence set so long ago.
@billbillson6779 2 місяці тому
The thing is that Ambrosius *already* showed he was capable: by breaking a concept already in place by befriending Ballister and accepting him as a Knight. The movie fails to establish why he and Bal should get back together, when he proves over and over again he does not have faith in Bal and over and over again fails to have his back. This is someone Bal needs to walk away from.
@PokeBattlerJaze 2 місяці тому
@@billbillson6779 I mean, the fact that he was even willing to continue to sit down and not just go for his head kind of showcases he is just incredibly confused about the whole situation which is fair when you take a step back and look at things purely from his eyes. I mean, really think about it, obviously since we as the viewer can see the story going on, we can understand what the true issue is from the jump, but Ambro for all intents and purpose watched his bf kill the queen and then shack up with a monster that said religion for actual millennium has said time and time again, kill and manipulate people. I get what you are saying, but I think it is a bit unfair to say he is a bad boyfriend for not believing his own eyes as well as once again, the religion that runs their society.
@billbillson6779 2 місяці тому
I could have given him a break if it was one thing, but it's a whole series of things that Ambrosius does in the movie. Failure after failure after failure. I'm not saying he should have immediately believed Ballister, but it would have been better if he had expressed doubt or lifted a finger to investigate, or at least not base his confusion on petty jealousy. Not once does he express real trust in Ballister and trust is an essential part to a relationship. In the end, he's done nothing to redeem himself. It's really messed up that this guy expresses more "hey that's not like him! Something's fishy!" when it comes to whether Ballister likes jazz or not, than it is with killing the Queen! Let that sink in. Like, even when he thinks Bal is just being used, not once does he bother to ask Bal what's really going on and he doesn't even care when the Director STILL labels Bal a villain: she continues to broadcast to everyone that Bal is guilty. Hello? Hello, McFly? Anybody home? You seriously think the Director is acting on good faith when she is saying THAT about Bal? The movie even makes a show of Ambrosius recognizing Bal's sword in the Director's office, but his brain never connects the dots. What good does this guy do, honestly? If Ambrosius was removed from the movie, what would change? ....There wouldn't have been that stupid third act breakup with Nimona, I think. And that's it. The guy doesn't help at all. The complete and utter lack of trust he has with Ballister is a huge indicator that he needs to do more before he's boyfriend material.
@PokeBattlerJaze 2 місяці тому
@@billbillson6779 Wasn't the fact he was willing to talk to him during the prison escape enough of a showcase that he still had trust in him instead of just going for the head?

Like imagine that in real life, imagine if the Pope personally tasked you with taking out your own SO after you see them hanging out with Satan after you saw them kill the President, is it really that unfair to say he shouldn't be rather spectacle?

I feel that the reason why they won't kill Nimona is because Nimona is not supposed to represent one trans/nonbinary person. I think that they are more like... the idea.

I like the movie, but I have some notes regarding this movie: . The main conflict of this movie could’ve been prevented if the Squire had just replaced the sabotage sword with a regular one. . The world building is definitely flat ; they’ve been around for a 1000 years and they haven’t encountered any other kingdoms or countries, they’ve never seen a foreigner? . Why is Nimona still there, she can travel wherever she wants and change into any form that she wants. Just go somewhere else, don’t transform in front of other people, and she’s good. . So their entire 1000 year old civilization is based around one little girl pointing a sword at Nimona; talk about exaggerated history. . At first the statue stabbing scene was emotionally powerful, but after realizing that Nimona is practically immortal, it kind of diminishes that moment a bit.

I don't know why you didn't explicitly say that Ballister and Ambrosius were lovers, like the main reason for Disney cancelling the movie? Because Ambrosius's character is very important in the story because he loves Ballister, to the point of saying he loves him. I just feel you're doing a Disney's retelling of the movie where you make it so any scene involving Ballister and Ambrsoius being romantic can be edited out for your "sensitive" audience. Smh

2 things 1: why didn’t they record nimona after she revealed herself, that would avoid suspicion that she killed ambrosish 2: why didn’t anyone check up on ambrosis, if he was ‘stabbed’ in the video, if that was the real him he probably would’ve died or got injured, but if doesn’t show that anyone felt worried about him getting stabbed, but if the actually ambrosis shows up, alive and well wouldn’t that raise even more suspicion

Lightyear with or without the lesbian kiss was alright. It was just a short scene and I think it didn't reflect in the product's quality, which I think was quite good because of its' graphic style and message about obssesion and acceptance of a self's situation. Stark contrast to Nimona, that instead was carried by the message of rejection to those different and even having a rather simple animation, I believe it was wonderful! Nice color palette, great character design and expresions and the cherry on top in my opinion was the look of the city. Enough sci-fi for it to be enough medieval as well! RIP to Blue Sky.

I must of fallen asleep watching this movie cause I missed that part where the director claimed it was Nimona posing as her and they faked the video cause I always wonder why when the knights went to arrest her then suddenly let her stand next to a big laser cannon and even let her turn it on the people but even then they should have had her locked up even if she did claim it to be fake or they would put her under house arrest at minimum but know she shows some old paper storybook and they let her be free not even like cuffed or anything that's my only real gripe is that they don't know if its fake or not and just trust it is a fake

My biggest and probably only gripe with the Movie is that during the Directors confession, Nimona was Ambrosius, context that completely invalidates the Institutes cover up. And further, since Bal knew for a fact that was the director confessing, and that she would kill his love without hesitation, I find it impossible to believe he would even entertain the notion that somehow Nimona is the bad guy in this story. Further, Ambrosius saw that the Director had Bal's sword, which should immediately invalidate the story she would try to spin. As for the Kingdom at large, Bal could easily prove that Nimona wasn't the Director, because Goldenloin, a celebrity is still unstabbed, therefore proving that the one stabbed in the clip was Nimona, who could therefore not have been the Director. The only way I could think of remyding that plot hole would be to have Nimona retrieve the Confession on her own, which would make similarly little sense, but would hurt the story, as this is the part where Nimona and Bal finally start relying on each other. So yes, this is a plot hole, one that only becomes more problematic the more you think about it, but it works with the theme and message of the Movie, which is more important than making sure it follows the rules we expect it to.

So if the actual backstory is just about an argument between two kids, how did all the living adults at the time believe that the blond girl was some legendary knight who killed a massive demon. Like they were all standing right there. They saw that she was a kid. How did we go from that to thinking she was a literal god?

Netflix really took Nimona instead of Disney and it became a really good film, not only business wise, not only opinion wise from the fanbase, and that of course, it’s a good movie. (Spoilers next) Also, when Nimona recreates the prophecy, or becomes a ‘monster’, it’s terrifying. I don’t find it scary look-wise, of course the design is still good. But when Nimona screams, it’s a mix of a roar and a humane scream. It shows that Nimona is still her, and that she’s not completely gone, and that its her screaming, its her in pain. (also if anybody’s gonna say “yapper” or if they have a problem with me talking too much, go look at mo williams books)

Look, hear me out. Movies fine, Look at it from the OG villagers perspective. Glorith and all them We’re all chilling one day, doing villager stuff, and then suddenly a gyatdamn *bear* comes bursting out of the bushes, *with a little one in its paws* Now the child seems okay, even giggling for whatever reason, so that’s probably the only thing keeping her alive, in our minds. We miraculously rescue our child from said bear And then The bear Turns Into A *CHILD* Cool, so we’re dealing with a skinwalker. Fantastic. “Oh but look at how they beat her up!” Again, from the villagers perspective, that’s gutwrenching. This thing clearly has the ability to transform into any animal, it could turn into something that could escape or f*ck us up, yet it remains a child. A sweet looking little girl, of all things. I’d take that as a skinwalkers attempt to manipulate my humanity and empathy in a bid for self preservation, or to get me to drop my guard I’m just saying, they’re not out of pocket for their reaction
@sassylittleprophet 2 місяці тому
Nimona being a shapeshifter is a metaphor for being trans, non-binary, or genderqueer in some sense. This is echoed throughout the story by comments like, "Why can't you just be a girl?" "Aaand now you're a boy"/"I am today." "They only see you one way, no matter how hard you try," the whole conversation between Nimona and Ballister about her *needing* to shapeshift, and Nimona almost k!lling herself. Some people still view gay or trans kids as inherently wrong or even dangerous or "unnatural." That's why conversion "therapy" is put in place, to "cure" them (it doesn't). Homelessness is high among queer and trans youth due to disownment from unaccepting parents, and su!cide rates are high among especially trans kids because of the fear and pressure society and oftentimes even their own families can put on them. This movie was commenting on people demonizing even kids who they perceive as "dangerous" for existing as themselves within an identity that those people don't understand. I don't think it was a perfect metaphor by any means, but that's why Nimona is a shapeshifter, a "monster" if you will. The writers were playing on the stereotype of being perceived as monstrous and why it's important to question where that type of fear-based thinking comes from, because it can often lead to prejudice. (Also, the og creator's name is Nate Stevenson, and he's actually a trans man. He also was one of the writers/creators of "She-Ra and The Princesses of Power" I think it's called, which I haven't actually seen yet but have heard is very good.)

The queer rep and themes about gender in this film are awesome. But I always read the Institute as a commentary on the police. I haven't seen anyone else really draw this connection - but it seems clear in some lines of the film. Bal reaching for the phone, and the director yelling "He's got a weapon!", and then being shot at. Bal saying "The Institute isn't the problem, the director is. We need to talk to Ambrosius" - very much "It's not all cops, its just one bad apple" vibes. Or the concept that gets repeated that Ambrosius cut off Bal's arm because he was *trained* to. He regrets it ("Arm cutting is not a love language!" lol), but he was just following orders, following his training. There's no such thing as a 'good' cop, because the system is designed to produce bad ones.
