The Brave Frog

Hows it going, I remember seeing The Brave Frog when I was about 5 years old and needless to say it was my most favourite film ever, i loved the music it is very very catchy and the characters can be a little scary at times, but they are very powerful, I thought it gave some excellent and powerful incite into teaching young children about life and death and good and bad. You will have to give it a look on Youtube to understand, this film is my number one childhood favourite. 10 out of 10-I never thought so many people would hate this movie so much, but everyone is different, and i think its fantastic-Thanks a mill-Phil

Someone gave me this movie for my kids, and after about 3/4 of a viewing, I threw it in the garbage.

The main character is a whiny, petulant jerk with a terrible personality who seems to just cry all the time and make other frogs feel bad. The situations are so scary and/or grown-up that little kids will be scared, confused, and bored by turns (at least mine were), and the dialog is so god-awful and the plot so boring and convoluted that adults and older kids won't like it either.

I usually just tolerate children's movies I don't like, but both I AND my young kids HATED this movie so much we couldn't even finish it once, and they like almost every movie they see.

If the rating system would allow it, I would give this movie a -10.

Harmony Gold was very busy in 1985 and thats exactly why this film ended up being very awful because the same voice actors did all their 1985 films one after the other.

Codename Robotech (1985) The Brave Frog (1985) The Brave Frogs Greatest Adventure (1985) The Little Train (1985) Yeah, Intersound-InterVision/MasterVision-Kids Cartoon Collection-Parkfield Publishing-Parkfield Playtime/Harmony Gold and their other alias company names as you can see did go a bit over the rails during 1985 releasing slap dash films and thats why this ended up not being their best film ever.

My main gripe is that all the 1985 shared the same voice acting and because they had to make one film after the other in 1985 most of their films ended up being rubbish in that period as Harmony Gold wasn't taking good care of their staff making the same team rotate between 4 or more movies during the same year making them all tired and nakered and in need of a holiday they didn't get because The Little Train English Dub had to be finished for the UK, Greece and Mexico by 1985 Christmas time which I ended up getting with Rupert And The Frog Song the very same year on the KCC edition.

This is the definitely the worst movie I have ever seen. I saw this when I was probably in middle school. I remember a lot of stupid little things about this movie, but most of all I remember that it made absolutely no sense. I only saw this because my little brother was crazy about frogs at the time and picked it out to rent.

I know it's only a kids movie but if you want to watch something that will annoy you and leave you trying to understand how a movie like this could have ever been made, then watch this. The ending is incredibly dumb and is the worst part of the movie, but most of you won't last long enough to see what I'm talking about.

Most people are going to take this movie at face value and think it's a terrible waste of their time. And those people would be correct. This isn't the best movie ever made, but the characters, the sounds, the music and the innocence of it make a film that's hard to forget. If children's films can become cult classics, this one fits the bill. If you want a great animated movie go for some classic (Or in the case of Ponyo, recent) Myazaki. But if you want to see something so totally out there that it needs an audience to be believed, this may be a good one for you. One thing to keep in mind, this wasn't even meant to be a movie. This was an old television show in Japan that was cobbled together to make a movie. Knowing that will help put this thing into perspective for you. I wouldn't recommend this for very young children either- some of it is a little terrifying. Like the lobster fight, or the incident with the eggs...
