Internet hit meets tv disaster?

Four years ago a great hit to the internet video world struck the nation. JKL Productions turned from boring backyard videos about sandwiches made from bread and candy to three teenagers bogusly dressed in outfits dancing to Hannah Montana's "Nobody's Perfect" hit song. Pointless, but it struck viewers' funny bone with reaching over 9 million views. Soon after that JKL introduced a character that the web loved: Fred. JKL Productions cranked out multiple videos featuring the high pitched voiced boy who used his mom's video camera on Halloween to make a video. Many videos such as that followed, but needless to say, this was a internet hit. Nickoloen has gotten together with Lucas, "Fred," from JKL Productions to produce the newly released "Fred: The Movie." but was this movie a hit? Or did it ruin the once hilairous films from YouTube?
