Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
bilismit So many predictable things in this movie. Some bold villain wants nothing more in life than to have a natural hair again. And ofc, to make a lot of money in the process. And he is willing to kill for it, ye, it's a cartoon movie for kids, do not be fooled, and yet you have this completely sadistic guy who sets a kid on fire just to get to his dad. Pick an audience! Even for a CEO of a wealthy company, this guy is really off the charts. The Bigfoots are also exaggerated, i can understand the speed, the growing hair, the intense hearing, but making images in your mind based on sound alone in hd detail is really pushing it too far. If they only stopped there, but no, lets add the healing touch, lets get this aura of blue light and just instantly heal what ever injury you might have. And yet this money-hungry CEO is not interested in the possibility of actually making more money in treating serious medical conditions like a leg stuck in a bear trap, noo, he just wants to milk boldies. Oh ye, hipster music, ye, really enjoyed that, one song going on and off during the whole thing. This movie is the sum of all the cliches out there, completely boring. Well, the mother is a total babe, so, there was some eye candy to ease the pain of watching this till the end (ocd and nothing else).What i really want to know is, how much do these 10 star "critics" get for these movie of the year reviews? Come on, they can't all be movie of the year. And adding masterpiece and genius in your review is just wrong. you guys are liars and sellouts, and i really hope you got the crossed out S and not a C mark on your paypal account for your "honest" opinion.
Paul Magne Haakonsen 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.
klaker-55280 One of the best blockbusters animated movies under the sun! If you love animation, woodland- films or father-son relationship movies this is the best movie for you. The plot is stunning, the twists are heartbreaking and overall the movie is completely and utterly beautiful. 10/10 A recommendation to all!
TheLittleSongbird Being a huge animation fan and really liking the idea, 'The Son of Bigfoot' had enough to make me want to see it. Seeing it, it may not be among the best films whether animated or not ever (nor did it intend to be) and is not perfect but it achieves very well at what it set out to do and doesn't try to be any more than it actually is, clearly knowing what it wanted to be and who to aim it at.'The Son of Bigfoot' is perfect for younger children, who are very likely to love it, while older children should also find a lot to like. Adults or the most demanding are likely to find faults and find it easier to criticise, but 'The Son of Bigfoot' does make a real effort to include something for everybody of all ages and to me it succeeded in that. It is easy to criticise it, it is formulaic, it is derivative, some of the pace is a bit too hectic and the villain is rather one-dimensional and neither threatening or interesting (almost silly and actually not really needed).The very sensitive may object to the use of certain words not usually found in a family film and perhaps also to the Japanese businessmen joke, wasn't myself by it all that much.However, while not up to the same level as the best films of the major animation studios, 'The Son of Bigfoot' has a lot going for it. The animation is great, it's colourful, beautiful and rich in background and character detail and character designs that move naturally and don't look creepy. The music fits nicely and has an infectious and bubbly vibe.Writing is also not bad at all, there is some nice wry humour and amusing jokes, without resorting to toilet humour, and just as many sweet, without being over-sentimental, and charming moments. Really liked the themes that the story touches upon, the father and son relationship is beautifully handled and has a lot of heart and it is not hard at all to root for an outsider, especially if you yourself were treated like one.Of the characters only the villain underwhelms, the others are very engaging while the voice acting achieves a good balance of fun and sweet without going over-the-top in either extreme.In short, very likable and worth the time as long as one knows what to expect. 7/10 Bethany Cox
