Plot
In the Mexican town of San Angel, Manolo (Diego Luna), Maria (Zoë Saldana) and Joaquin (Channing Tatum) have been friends ever since childhood. Although their lives have taken different paths -- Maria was sent to Europe, Joaquin joined the military, and Manolo studied to become a bullfighter -- one thing remains the same: Manolo and Joaquin both want to marry Maria. Little does the trio know that battling husband-and-wife deities have made a high-stakes wager on the love triangle's outcome.

Why It Sucks

 * 1) The film's really Boring and Horrible style of animation. From the Boring backgrounds in the Land of the Dead, to the Stupid wooden-puppet character designs.
 * 2) The film's ensemble cast does a Disaster job of playing their characters. The main trio, Manolo (Diego Luna), Joaquin (Channing Tatum), and Maria (Zoe Saldana) are Fishy examples.
 * 3) The Rodriguez Brothers are Terrible comic reliefs and they steal every scene that there in.
 * 4) The film's interpretation of Dia de Las Muertos. The movie gives a Bad, Horrible message of what Day of The Dead is really about.
 * 5) The film's Boring soundtrack.
 * 6) The film has a Bad chunk of comedy.
 * 7) It's A Norm Of The North But With Mexico Into It
 * 8) The film is a jukebox musical, using copyrighted songs instead of writing original music.
 * 9) When in the scene where Manalo gets bitten by a two-headed snake, it kinda gets disturbing.
 * 10) Joaquin even blamed Manolo for Maria's death. Great job being a best friend, Joaquin!!!!
