The Minecraft Movie is the Greatest worst movie of all time

By: Simon Stambaugh '26

The Minecraft Movie is one of the worst movies I have ever seen; however, through its failures, you will see one of the most laugh-out-loud funny movies of this year. This movie follows Steve played by Jack Black, Garret “the Garbage Man” Garrison, played by Jason Momoa, Dawn, played by Danielle Brooks, Henry, played by Sebastian Eugene Hansen, and Natalie, played by Emma Myers, who are dragged into the minecraft world where they must stop an evil pig sorcerer from bringing and eternal darkness to the “overworld”. Despite having a solid main cast, only two actors capture the feeling of the movie. Jack Black and Jason Moama are the foundation to this heap of garbage, with Black’s witty one liners such as “Chicken Jockey”, “I… am Steve”, and my personal favorite “Flint and Steal”, while Jason Momoa’s attitude and pure acting skills shine in an over-the-top washed up video game champion. However, Natalie and Henry have the most generic brother and sister dynamic of all time as the story never fleshes out their dynamic enough or allows certain sentiment moments to hit. With that being said, if you wish to see Jack Black and Jason Momoa say moronic lines, this is the the movie for you. However, if you wish to see a more emotionally provoking story, then the Oscar-winning movie The Whale may be more up your alley.
