Bigfoot Family

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.

I won't even say anything about the obvious agenda the movie was pushing. I'll stick to the flat characters. If you're going to create an animated film you need quality, enthusiastic voice actors to bring your characters to life. Whomever these people were that voiced the characters didn't even seem like they memorized the lines. It sounds like someone is reading a paper they didn't write in front of their 8th grade class. I'm also curious who's idea it was to have a very obvious female voice a teenage boy? The entire movie was just lame, stereotypical garbage.

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.

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.
