Review of Hetalia Axis Powers: Paint it, White!

I love Hetalia and just recently got into watching it. I sort of binge watched it and obviously finished the whole thing relatively fast since the episodes are so short. Then I found out that there was a movie and I thought, well... This is going to be interesting, since the episodes rarely have actual plots that lasts for longer than half a minute. I feared that the movie would be chaotic, pointless and that it would make no sense. I was right. The movie is funny, sort of, but the fact that it's main plot is interrupted by these small sketches from the episodes is justSO confusing! I mean, the original show is confusing but you get used to it - that's just how it is; it's not supposed to have a storyline. So when they try and do a movie with an actual plot, but still with the odd 30 second sketches, it's just weird and... makes it incredibly boring to watch. Especially since all those little clips are from the show, which, I assume, most people who watch the movie have already watched, so I wonder, why put in so much old material that has nothing to do with the actual plot of the movie? When you make a movie from a popular franchise, you wanna create NEW material! I mean, why would you pay for a movie that is, what, 40% clips from the episodes?
If they wanted to keep the 30 second sketch thing that the show is known for, I'd been totally fine with just half an hour of random history shit, I mean, kinda like putting together a bunch of the episodes. Totally fine. Or they could've focused on the events of one specific war. Why the made up alien stuff?
I just found that having a plot, does not work for Hetalia. It was not really funny... At all. It was odd.
After all this is said and done, I am a HUGE Hetalia fan, I think the show is hilarious and I'll keep watching it, but if someone asks me ''should I watch the movie'' my answer will be; ''Only if you've watched the whole show and feel like you wanna sit through 1 and a half hours of pointless stuff just for that extra bit of mediocre Hetalia. Then go for it.''
(The dub is great though, as always. You could just watch the movie for Todd Habertalia and Jacque Michael Tatum. That's what I did after the 30 minute mark XP) ((I apologize for the name puns...))
