4/10. I, personally, am a big fan of the Hey, Arnold! series, but I was seriously dissappointed in this movie. The animation was horribily drawn, but I've noticed that in all movies that go from T.V. show to movie, (Rugrats). They also made sure that there was no time wasted getting straight to the plot. I was like, "Whoa! Slow down a bit." If anyone wasn't familiar with the show, they didn't understand the characters because they've never seen the show. The One last thing I noticed was how beat up Arnold's neighborhood looked. In any of the shows, you can look back, and see that the neighborhood is in great shape, not horrible shape.
I had a few laughs here and there but nothing too big. If you want to see this movie, and you're a fan of Hey, Arnold, go ahead. You might be impressed, you might not.

6/10-A good waste of 75 minutes. The crudely drawn animation was worse than the show. The movie didn't waste any time getting started, which may not have been a good thing, since those who didn't know the show wouldn't have any character developement. The plot seemed rather farfetched, yet it stil entertained for the whole show. It was also quite funny in most parts.
At least it didn't spoil the show. I remember seeing the Rugrats Movie and things that happened in that changed the show. Nothing new happened in Arnoldland when it ended. As if you couldn't guess, it was also predictable. The bottom line is if you enjoy the show, you'll enjoy the movie. If you hate the show, you'll hate the movie.
