Les Pierrafeu et WWE : Catch préhistorique !

This direct to DVD movie is like a new extended episode of The Flintstones, featuring a handful of WWE wrestling superstars—it's just long enough to not be considered a short film. Fred Flintstone (Jeff Bergman) attempts another scheme to get rich quick. This time it's to face professional wrestlers, and in the stone age, it's not staged. WWE fans will like this as they see animated version of what are often referred to as real-life animated characters. Appearances are made by John Cena, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry, The Bella Twins, and WWE owner Vince McMahon as Mr. McMagma. Each one has a stone age counterpart name but half the fun of this movie is hearing what the names are so I won't spoil the rest. Older fans of the original Flintstone series will probably be annoyed by the voices, particularly Barney's. Guys like Rick Moranis did a decent job of replicating Alan Reed's voice in the 1994 movie "The Flintstones," but I feel Kevin Michael Richardson does a terrible job. It's not a great movie by any standard, but lives up to its expectations

Whatever we think of this movie, based in Bedrock and guest stars WWE Wrestlers and their boss (if we count out CM Punk, which left before this cartoon was released but was left there as part of the story line), I kinda enjoyed it for the nostalgia and the fact that part of the WWE world is a cartoon by itself...

Most of the movie was drawn like season one of the original series. Even Barney gets close to the original voice (but I miss Mel Blanc or even Daws Butler in some of season's two episodes). However, it gets back to Fred's original "get rich quick" schemes, when he was denied of a vacation cheque due to an accident. An event staged by the Water Buffaloes gives him an idea with a few wrestlers he meets on the way (like John Cena, El Mysterio and The Undertaker) or some brutes (CM Punk and Mark Henry) and sassy Divas (the Bella Twins). And not forget Mr.McMahon ! And Barney might be the solution to get the clams in the pocket for a Rockapulco vacation for the families...

Watch for the fun of it, take it light. It's been a long time in my book the Flinstones lost it in animation (the original series were the best from 1961-66) but it brings back some nostalgia about how the Flinstones and the Rubbles were part of prime time a long way back.

Watch it in English mostly, not in French. Very bad Parisian dubbing and WB should have known Quebec had one of the best French versions in the 70s with the original series...

And by the way, watch again the one in season 3, when Barney does a ventriloquist trick to Pebbles to fool Fred, but ends up being spectators in a wrestling show to make it up...

I'm a very HUGE fan of WWE and I was a fan of the Flinstones when i was a kid, so i was afraid, but really curious of the final result of this project, but as a surprise, it was good, even better that the other WWE crossover movie: Scooby Doo Wrestlemania Mystery. It feels that this movie was having more fun with itself, and the animation here was really funny, and "mobile" comparing to the other movie, allowing the characters to feel more alive, doing some funny moves and complementing the voice acting pretty well in the process, in that subject, the voice acting was one of the best part for me. Saw Cm punk playing himself and wrestling against Barney Rubble was simply hilarious, and the others like John Cena, Mysterio did an OK job. Is just an "ok" movie, nothing really good or bad to say about. That is my only problem, the movie is nothing special, is very predictable and "by the book" for that i give the movie just a 6. In conclusion, if you are a WWE fan, and want to have some silly fun with the wrestlers and the Flinstones, is worth it to check it out at least once, you can get a laugh or two, or feel really awkward with some of the Undertaker lines...

If only Surf's Up 2 Wavemania wasn't bad enough this movie makes the previous mentioned movies look like a masterpiece the animation is trash, the characters are horrible including the WWE stars and this is another poor attempt to make money so kids can be interested in wrestling, this is not a real movie it is just a commercial break with nothing just the same characters and every crossover of WWE is bad including Scooby Doo and The Jetsons, just send that movie to the garbage can and never return. It only exists to be another make money quickly just for kids to enjoy it and nothing more to say.

This movie was sooooo good which really shouldn't be a surprise at this point considering that wwe studios is well known for producing oscar bait movies such as this one.This movie was definitely snubbed at the academy awards it is one of the best movie ever produced its honestly up there with the godfather in terms of quality.Vince McMahon is one of the best directors of the modern era he is like a modern day Alfred Hitchcock.
