Big Pai, Big Filho

I hadn't heard of this film before seeing it but was really impressed with many of its elements. The animation is stylised in a way that gives amazing personality to each character. My particular favourites being the protagonist, some school bullies and one of the FBI security guards.

I laughed out loud on a few occasions and the plot/script are strong enough to have kept me locked on for the duration and it feels like it has a good heart. Was surprised at the language in a couple of places but nonetheless a great film for adults and kids to watch together.

Awkward high school student Adam Harrison is often bullied. He has unusual growth spurts especially in his hair. He discovers a stash of letters from his father whom he had assumed to be dead. He tracks down his father who looks like Bigfoot. It turns out that the father has been hiding from hair-obsessed Wallace Eastman who owns HairCo. In addition to hair growth, Adam discovers that he gained animal speech and fast running as other Bigfoot skills.

I'm not that excited about this animated movie. The hair obsessed story is a bit silly. I would have prefer that Adam stayed at school and having to deal with the repercussion of his new self with all the other kids. He could be Teen Wolf, the movie. Instead, this all feels a little silly and that's fine for kids.

When asked where the kid is going he replied route ... when cleary marked on the wood the address is .... No one caught that he said the wrong number?! The kids liked the movie too!

Oh, how completely and utterly delightful! I loved the animation, the characters and the story. It was funny, adventurous and even action-packed. Animated films also usually have that deeper meaning to them, and in this instance it is family values. This was fantastic.

My son wanted to watch this movie, so we went to watch it. And with it now seen, I must admit that I was actually surprised with the outcome of this movie, because it turned out to be better than I had anticipated.

While "The Son of Bigfoot" hardly is an innovative animated movie, it still offers fun and entertainment from start till end.

The storyline was fun, albeit a bit generic and predictable.

The characters in "The Son of Bigfoot" were funny and nicely detailed, and there were a bunch of hilarious situations throughout the course of the story. This, naturally, added to the overall enjoyment of the movie.

The voice acting in the movie was quite good and really helped the movie along nicely. And with this being an animated movie, the voice acting is crucial.
