In a captivating moment that gained traction on April 19, 2025, Twitch personality Kai Cenat shared his experience walking out of the recently released *A Minecraft Movie* after just 30 minutes. Despite the film’s impressive commercial performance and its strong following within the gaming arena, Cenat expressed his dissatisfaction, igniting a flurry of mixed reactions across social media platforms.
One notable comment came from user @N_S_N_B, who challenged Cenat’s gamer credentials:
“He not a real gamer.”
While discussing the movie on his livestream, Cenat stated:
“I walked out on Minecraft. I don’t know why, I’m over here surfing a website, surfing the web, I’m seeing n***as in movie theaters so happy with Minecraft. Word on my mother, I went to Minecraft, I watched the first 30 minutes and I walked out. Word on my life, I swear to god. I swear to god.”
Although Cenat has streamed *Minecraft* multiple times, he admitted that he struggled to connect with the cinematic rendition. Critics on X argued that the film clearly targets a younger audience, stating:
“Its a movie for kids not ghetto adults,” asserted @ok_nero.
“It’s a children’s film not a adults film,” remarked @wtfkezmo.
“Probably because it’s made for kids lmao,” commented @ConnertonLuke.
Conversely, some fans supported Cenat’s stance. They voiced similar sentiments, with one user stating:
“Minecraft movie had to be the most overhyped movie ever no debate,” shared @omarhustla.
“Kai has a point there,” responded @BitBulLVault.
“They got the nerve to try and tease a second movie with the Story Mode game….this a waste of money bruh I’m ngl,” expressed @CatsassinDoyle.
Kai Cenat’s Previous Criticisms of the Film
This incident marks a continuation of Cenat’s outspoken criticism regarding *A Minecraft Movie*. Back in September 2024, he referred to the film as the “craziest money grab,” arguing that the beloved game did not warrant a movie adaptation. His fervent objection included:
“We’ve got to stop letting the movie industry do this s**t, bro. This is so f**king a**, bro! Bro, I’m not going to lie – why didn’t you just let this legendary game just do what it does? Why the f**k do we need a Minecraft Movie, my n***a?! Whose idea was this?”
Regardless of such criticism, *A Minecraft Movie* has proven to be a financial triumph, amassing over $557 million in box office revenue within two weeks of its launch, significantly exceeding its production budget of $150 million.
In related news, fellow streamer xQc recently drew backlash after commenting that Doechii’s *Anxiety* music video was “awful,” with some labeling his remarks as racially insensitive.
