A good closing for the show, the characters are still likable, and the animation is a little crispier.
This is just as good as the fantastic show.
You're never too old to watch Recess, so scoot your wheelchair into the warm glowing embrace of its presentation.
It feels more like a feature length special than a movie but it gives all the series gave. Plus it has better quality animation
I loved Recess as a kid! Not sure why I rated it 'meh'. I guess my finger slipped.
Not to good not to bad not one to go out of your way to see
Really weird compared to the series who was focused more on realistic scenarios rather than over the top plotlines, still give it a watch.
Youll love it if you loved the show
Pure nostalgia
Nostalgic and fun
