Gordy

This is one of those obvious el cheapo movies that they make quick when they know a bigger more expensive movie involving something similar is coming a couple months later (Babe) The same thing happened with Antz (a bugs life was made first but was more expensive and was released a couple months after Antz while Antz was cheap and quick)

It's the talking pig who made it big! This is a truly delightful surprise from Miramax Family Films and Disney. It's become an instant classic in the family library. Although it isn't made with top direction and special effects as in the Academy Award winning "Babe." I totally agreed in the saying "Charming...Charlotte's Web meets Forrest Gump" (Boston Phoenix). No language, violence, or sexual content in any form was portrayed. This is a movie you can let your kids watch over and over again.

If you have never seen it before, remember this film was released over a year before Babe. The cast doesn't have well known stars but really its the story that makes a movie...sometimes. Bottom line, it's great fun and hilarious in many ways, so go check it out today. Directed by Mark Lewis

This movie is cute and funny. Granted it is unrealistic but so what? It is a kids movie that all ages can enjoy.The pig is very cute as are the two kids. It has some very funny scenes with Gordy in costumes. It also has some good old country music. Boxcar Willy, Jim Stafford and Roy Clark and other country stars appear as themselves. It is a feel good movie with a happy ending. If you need profanity, nudity, sex,violence or rude and disrespectful kids in a movie in order to like it then skip Gordy. It has none of that. The only dirt in this movie is actual dirt on the pigs. Gordy is a good movie for those who like clean, lighthearted family entertainment.

I had the misfortune of seeing Gordy in the theater at the age of ten. Even then, I couldn't stand it. I saw part of it again the other day on TV. Wow, what a travesty. It was bad enough that the pig didn't actually move his mouth with the words, but you can actually hear him snort over his English. The performances are all horrifically over the top, the plot is ridiculous, there are terrible country songs, and, on at least one occasion, a "tree" that moves when leaned against.

If anyone ever tries to tell you that Gordy is "a good family film" or "almost as good as Babe" or any such thing, don't talk to that person anymore. They are not you're true friend. If you value your soul, steer clear of this epic shame of a picture at all costs.

I thought the movie was very cute...I actually don't like babe that much, I like Gordy better...the person that commented and said it was a horrible, well that was their own opinion...if you haven't seen it, then go out and rent it and judge for yourself. The movie is about a pig that is trying to find his family and on the way gets famous. I love the "goodnight" song that Luke MacAllister sings to his little girl in the film...on the way Gordy finds a few friends (Jenny Sue and Hanky)if you have kids then i suggest this movie...they'll love it...my little brother wont quit watching it...i think tha movie is cute..but you can decide for yourself...
