Rufus e la porta segreta

Easily one of the worst movies I've ever sat through, acting was incredibly cringey and story was a mess, don't waste your time

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.

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.

I knew it was a kids movie and didn't expect much, but wow. It is really bad. The acting by all of the adults is horrible. The only good thing about it, and the only reason i gave it any stars at all, is that my nine-year-old had a big smile on his face whenever i looked over at him as we watched this movie. He really liked it. But wow. Not good.

Even though this is definitely a kids film, my three kids 8,11 and 13 were not interested in it at all.
