Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie

Hey Arnold!: The Jungle Movie is a 2017 American animated television film based on Craig Bartlett's mh:besttvshows:Hey Arnold! TV series. The film follows 2002's mh:awfulmovies:Hey Arnold! The Movie and the two-part series finale "The Journal" (2002).

The film serves as either the definitive series finale or as a potential prelude of a new season. It answered questions left after the original run ended, including the whereabouts of Arnold's missing parents. The TV movie premiered on Nickelodeon, Nicktoons, and TeenNick on November 24, 2017 in the United States.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) The film's story about Arnold finding his parents is very astounding, and lends itself to Indiana Jones-esque action and superb adventure.
 * 2) The animation is a major upgrade from that of the TV series and the 2002 movie.
 * 3) The scene where everybody tributes Arnold of all the kind, helpful and wonderful things he's done over the years was such a great moment. It recreates most of the past episodes the old show made.
 * 4) The characters themselves are in character like always in the series as well.
 * 5) After SUCH a long time of being lost media, it was finally released.
 * 6) The film's new animation styles are fantastic.
 * 7) La Sombra is a really entertaining and clever villain.
 * 8) The ending is pretty fantastic and very satisfying as well.
 * 9) The music soundtrack is very enjoyable.
 * 10) Helga and Gerald helping Arnold is how Helga can do something nice to Arnold after La Sombra got everyone trapped in a prison that made everyone lose respect for Arnold after they thought he did this on purpose when La Sombra was an impostor of Eduardo.
 * 11) The character updates and changes are glorious.
 * 12) The voice acting and dialogue are really good.
 * 13) We got to understand more things about Arnold.
 * 14) Arnold’s confession to Helga was romantic and funny. It was very surprising that Arnold and Helga would share their first romantic kiss and Gerald sees it.
 * 15) It is a huge improvement over the 2002 film.
 * 16) Even if the show isn't brought back by Nickelodeon, the film can perfectly serve as a satisfactory ending for the Hey Arnold! franchise.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) There's one infamous scene where Lasombra made everyone in Arnold's class think Arnold trusted him (disguised as Eduardo) so he can get himself and his classmates trapped in San Lorenzo, which results to the entire class shame on Arnold, as if he betrayed their whole trust, when Lasombra was actually using Arnold to end up being imprisoned the whole time, this scene almost made Arnold commit suicide.
 * 2) Nickelodeon ordered a good chunk of the script cut out for commercials.
 * 3) There's a lot more toilet humor in this movie than there was in the show.
 * 4) It premiered on the same day as "Trolls Holiday", resulting in low viewership and shifting both "Rocko's Modern Life: Static Cling" and "Invader Zim: Enter The Florpus" into Netflix.

Reception
The movie's reception was critically acclaimed with positive reviews as it was given a 7.5/10 on IGN.com noting "the little, unexpected homages to what made Hey, Arnold! such a joy originally that mark the high points of The Jungle Movie." Common Sense Media gave it a 4/5 (also saying that most of the adults were evil allowing kids to be the heroes), and the movie was given a 3/5 on Den of Geek.
