Eh, timeskips not always are synonymous with quality. Otherwise, "A Fairly Odd Movie: Grow Up, Timmy Turner!" would be the best Fairly Odd Parents movie to date.
And yet, it simply… failed. Really hard. The premise of seeing Timmy as an adult was nice, and it would have been interesting to see how he handled life as an adult and how he lost his wish-granting fairies. And yet, what we got was a weird movie about a Timmy with Peter Pan syndrome struggling with puberty, where the villain is another guy with evident childhood problems. Yeah… it was quite the mess.
Besides, I wouldn't judge a movie by a simple summary. Otherwise, we could get something like this about this movie:
"Follow Ash, a ten-years-old boy from Pallet Town who aims to become a Pokémon Trainer. After obtaining a disobedient Pikachu to start his journey, the boy goes through many ordeals to befriend the little creature, ending up having a fateful encounter with a mystical Pokémon with rainbow-colored wings, which left behind a special multicolored feather. After becoming friends with two Pokémon Trainers, the group decides to go search for the legendary Ho-Oh, while a mysterious creature made of shadows follows them for unknown reasons. Will they succeed in meeting the mystical phoenix?"
Now, doesn't that sound epic?
