Pica-Pau: O Filme

There are a couple things wrong with this film. But let's see some good. They kept the original woody design which was nice to see. It's set in Seattle which was also good as a lot of films like this are usually set in new York. I'm out of good ok so. It's very corny in places. The acting is very cheesy and terrible and the kids are cringy even down to the buddy song. And why's a young girl running a music shop by herself for. Tommy's father's new bit on the side was one of the worst characters and was only there as a slight bit of eye candy and we get to the bad bad. It's woody himself and no it's not the animation or the voice acting of him it's the sound. Who ever did this and synced the voice made it sound like it was being recorded with a webcam. Poor audio quality through our. If not it might have been more decent. So overall this movie gets a four and makes it one of the worst live action adaptation of a beloved animation that i have seen.

This film is god awful! The jokes are predictable, the characters are completely forgettable, there's stereotypes, cliched plot lines, bad effects, and just a living hell to sit through.

As a fan of the cartoon, one of my favorites of all my life, I expected more for the first live-action version of the Woody Woodpecker. The result is a bit disappointing. Woody Woodpecker's first movie resulted in a silly, uninspired film with very poor acting. The good things are just the funny situations created by Woody and his characteristic laughter that animated my mornings in childhood and adolescence.

....then as an adult, would i? she watched it for 10 minutes and she picked up her Lego toys,started playing with it,completely ignorant of the movie. sheesshhhh!!!!

Hey, remember all those movies from the late 2000s where a vintage cartoon character is suddenly in extra realistic CGI, now a side character to a live action drama about corporate business deals and/or a workaholic father who needs to spend time with his family? Well, we've got one of those for Woody Woodpecker now, and he now belches, farts, and makes Hip Cool jokes about "swiping left" and ringtones and songs that are his "jam". It's a movie from 2017 that feels like it's from 2008.

I wasn't exactly expecting Fargo or something, but why are CGI family movies almost always this terrible? This film barely counts as family material...Woody outright tries to murder people via such schemes including electrocution, gas explosions, and pouring wet cement into an occupied car. He also defecates on people, with one character (unknowingly) eagerly eating it. A character remarks that she "needs a Xanny" in response to a loud kid. Woody's driving force for being the harbinger of chaos is just, "I don't want an artsy house near my tree, so it's time to get some humans almost killed." Multiple subplots come and go; the only one I cared about was how the lawyer's son joins a band to both prove himself and to help out some friends at a talent show. You may ask, "I thought this movie was about land development and paternal bonding. What talent show?" Well, just wait until you have to climb through the other subplots involving a black market for stuffed birds, Woody's entire species being extinct, two brothers who are poachers, a forest ranger trying to catch said poachers, a house fire with improperly-placed blame, a sickly father-in-law, a Xanax-popping interior decorator and her flimsy marriage, and a guitar. The morning after I watched this movie, I had trace memories of it, and thought, "Wait, that was real? That was a thing that I really watched? And it came out in 2017?!" This film is disjointed, and definitely not kid-friendly.

I can't imagine being a Woody Woodpecker fan and seeing this; it reminds me a lot of the film "Furry Vengeance" from 2010, albeit now with a talking bird shoving his bug-eyed, CGI face in the camera "Son of the Mask" style. I give this a 3/10 because the kid playing the lawyer's son gave a really good performance, and the ending song was catchy. Otherwise, just run away from this. So many better children's/family movies have come out in the past decade, so this film both has no reason being so bad, AND you owe it to your kids to put on something better.
