I liked Flash Sentry. [cry]
Otherwise, probably the best review of the movie I've seen to date.

Not a Masterpiece, but not a Train Wreck either
If I could describe this movie in one word, it would be... decent. It's not "why the heck did I watch this?" awful, but at the same time it doesn't exactly have you jumping out of your seat either. The details and subtleties of the primary cast's characterization is every bit as sharp as it is on the show proper, and the majority of the humor is spot on (seriously, any time Twilight forgets that she's not a pony any more, the result tends to be comedic gold), but the overarching plot is rather cliche and feels flat. The more emphasis a scene has on the plot (Twilight winning the Fall Formal to reclaim her crown) the less interesting it is.
The Good:
The Bad:
In short, the movie is entertaining, but it's very obviously a straight-to-DVD quality effort. The plot is unfortunately thin, but it's worth watching for the jokes.
