Bad Guys, The

[Opens April 22 in theaters.] When a group of tight-knit thieves, including the pickpocketing cat-loving wolf (voiceover by Sam Rockwell), a tech-savvy tarantula (voiceover by Awkwafina), a cantankerous Eastern brown snake (voiceover by Marc Maron), a disguise-master great white shark (voiceover by Craig Robinson), and a Bolivian red-bellied piranha (voiceover by Anthony Ramos), try to swipe a Golden Dolphin award at an annual gala honoring a dubious, philanthropic, good Samaritan guinea pig (voiceover by Richard Ayoade) after a meteorite hit the city a year earlier and end up in handcuffs and hot water with the frustrated police chief (voiceover by Alex Borstein) in Pierre Perifel's colorful, family-geared, entertaining, action-packed, funny, fast-paced, 100-minute animated comedy inspired by Aaron Blabey's popular book series, the duplicitous, ninja-skilled, red fox governor (voiceover by Zazie Beetz) gives them a second chance to become good citizens but their road to redemption is filled potholes, guinea pigs, and dangerous curves.
