Adventures of Rufus: The Fantastic Pet

Adventures of Rufus: The Fantastic Pet is a adventure/fantasy film directed by Ryan Bellgardt. The film follows Scott (portrayed by Kyler Charles Beck) and Emily (portrayed by Madelyn Kientz) who are at Scott's grandmothers home when they meet Rufus (voiced by Ryan Bellgardt). Rufus informs them that he is an apprentice to a wizard, Abbott (portrayed by Cory Phillips), and needs their help to collect objects to make a spell that will save his world. The films antagonist is a witch - Lilith (portrayed by Leah N. H. Philpott).

As far as the plot goes, I did not hate Adventures of Rufus: The Fantastic Pet. I thought it was an enjoyable enough kids film with some decent humor.

The acting in the film is pretty poor as no one really gave a standout performance. It wasn't the worst acting I have seen, but definitely on the mediocre side. Yet, why the film is rated so low to me is that the CGI was really poor. Some scenes were just so cheesy that it really took me out of the film.

Overall, I doubt anyone above their targeted age demographic would enjoy the film. - 3/10.

For the right age this is an entertaining story. However,, for other people used to tons of expensive CGI, cinematography, & seasoned actors, it will fall short. For kids' who want to see an adventure story coming to life, it's fine. Adults who don't like this, go watch I Am Dragon.

I started watching this movie with great anticipation for an adventure, magic, and overall fun. The story itself is a good one. Unfortunately, the acting and the special effects are dismal at best. I had to force myself to watch this movie to the end because I wanted to turn it off about 2/3 of the way through. I enjoy all types of kids movies whether it be regular or animated or a combination. I could not, in my best conscious, give this a good rating. The only reason I gave it a 6 is because the story is good but everything else is lacking. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news but this movie is not worth watching. 😚

If Narnia and Harry Potter has a baby on a slightly smaller budget! That is what this movie is, a good distraction for the kids.

I think when we hv wfh , this is the answer we around the whole family make a unity to watch this movie..n we enjoy it ..
