Bigfoot Family

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.

All of the brain-dead and repetitive *PANS* in the reviews are obvious paid plants by the oil industry. There's scarcely an honest review amongst them. If you are looking here for a genuine write-up to help you decide whether to watch this movie, pay no attention to them. I could say a million things about this, but my main message is: This is a really fun movie, and beautifully done. A total winner. Unless you're in the oil business. (And if you are, go **** yourself.)

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.

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.

Amazing Graphics and highly detailed. Even though this plot has been kinda played out they at least made it entertaining & fun. My only wish was they picked another voice actor for the son. It didn't seem to fit him entirely & was somewhat distracting.
