Bigfoot Family

Good family movie and enjoy it for most part... the way they portray oil industry is a down right joke... Black smoke from flare stacks, oil spewing out of the ground... that's just not how it goes. Especially in America where strict epa rules that have to be followed.

I know it's a kids movie but I feel it's a bit ironic and people are pushing there "green" agenda behind this movie.

The animation in this film, along with the character models that are used, are surprisingly good, the backgrounds are very detailed. And fit right into the theme of the film with the use of color. The music was good. The story, tho, is predicable as it gets, the film tries to promote an environmental message - which is good, but the fact that the whole plot revolves around that, takes away the fun and makes the whole thing a bit in-your-face. The characters are cliched but they got certain personalities that makes them stand out a bit. and seems have some kinda powers, it's odd but it's cool. But I found the whole talking animals to be way overdone in animated movies. It's so formulaic, it's about time they found something new to do. And them (the animals) messing around the house made me uncomfortable. That said, I found them to be a little funny in the later parts of the movie. They weren't crucial to the plot but they were fun. The big foot was a peculiar character and there's something off about his personality, that I can't get my head around. The villain is a generic bad guy with evil motives. Some of his lines, as well as the subvillain's did make me chuckle a bit tho. Overall, a decent animation with standard characters and story but is mildy entertaining.

Decent watch at best, won't watch again, and can't really recommend.

While very stylized, the animation quality is excellent, but between Bigfoot having magic powers, having passed them to his son, the wife not being able to speak to animals (thus being left out of half their life), the weirdness of Bigfoot being an absent father, and the better movie that we skipped, there is a lot to be desired, very early in the movie.

I had hoped that the bigger plot would out weigh all the negative nuances, but it just didn't happen.

It's also a weird contrast of child focused presentation with an very extended murder plot: there's a corporations are earth murderers message that hits the audience like a frying pan, and it's just not fun enough to cover it. Maybe for young audiences.

This movie is kinda like eating popcorn with no butter and no salt; its not gonna hurt you, but why would you bother? Bigfoot Family has all the subtlety and charm of a mid 90s "family life" educational special. Its the family movie equivalent of a comedian that explains every joke after they tell it.

Seriously, its just flat. Every single plot point is explicitly explained in the dialogue, all the "jokes" are on the nose. No charm, no timing, no whimsy, no emotion. Several characters nearly died several times and not once did i care either way.

Seriously, don't bother. Just watch Ferngully.

Nothing but political agendas, southern stereotypes, and brainwashing attempts. It was the film maker's sneaky way of offering his opinion of oil fracking. Our kids are not here for you to try to influence them. This movie just teaches kids false information to hate the oil and gas industry when its actually essential for every day life.
