Look, I like Genndy Tartakovsky as he has shaped animation to new levels and grounds in the 21st century. But...boy oh boy, this movie was pure obnoxious, and rough in many edges. Tartakovsky clearly is reminiscing the adult animated comedies clearing having it's influence from Judd Apatow, Ralph Bakshi and Harmony Korine. However, "Fixed" unlike having a clever satirical concept and atmosphere, the writing and concepts suffers from the notions of shock value without purpose, and poor humor, uninteresting writing, and a really messy sense of atmosphere. It's pretty much like Sausage Party, where it's animation qualities are pretty solid, but it's forced with humor that isn't funny, annoying characters, and with a atmosphere and structure that serves the purpose to become edgy and creating shock value, without substance. Which creates a dreadful and cringeworthy experience. Throughout, the animation designs, colors and presentation offers some good models and structures, as it does remind you a lot of the 1990s and 2000s animation area. However, the good animation can't be saved when the voice performances are annoying, the characters are extremely unlikeable, and it's humor and atmosphere, as mentioned, feels like a edgy person thinks constant sexual jokes and repetitive nature is the best form of humor and comedy in the world. Interlaced with pretty awful musical score, sound designs, and some of the worst dialogue I have heard in an animated movie in sometime. Alongside with it's messy pacing and some really rough editing, Tartakovsky direction is emotionless and all over the place. I honestly don't understand what was Tartakovsky trying to prove with this movie. Was it meant to be a social commentary or deep insight metaphor animated movie that uses cringe humor to create something unique and bizarre? Because if that is the case, it failed badly. With all of the great adult animated movies out there, movies like these really are an insult to good animated stories. Nevertheless, this was a bad bone and one of the most cringeworthy movies I have seen in 2025.
