This is such a cute movie. Doesnt everyone wish there was a little world out there in the forest? I mean does anyone remember FernGully? It takes the imagination places and thats what I love about it. Its great for kids to feel motivated to get outdoors to and play!

its desire to be original is the great sin. because it becomes a moralistic story, predictable and almost boring in the second part. the good part is the aspect of old fashion fairy tale, touching, delicate, full of flavor of classic stories from childhood. the great error - the not inspired title. because far to be epic, it is a small story about friendship, nature, heroism in ordinary rules, transformation of people in difficult conditions. nothing new. but comfortable if you ignore the new levels from the final part. short, a nice film. decent animation. far to be memorable. but a kind of oasis for the entertainment of entire family. and as good suggestion to return to the classic fairy tale books.

Animation wise this is very good and it is a really beautiful film, the contrast between big and small and the effects of the giant "creatures" moving slow and talking slow works very well.It might not be so epic as the title would suggest, but it is very enjoyable for kids and grownups alike, there is more for the kids here and that is very reasonable, but also a few word plays that pan out better for the adult audience.I think all the bi-characters in this film make it very fun, they almost controls all the funny scenes and have a lot of goofy remarks and weird happenings.

Epic is a very good, fun-filled film for the entire family and I enjoyed it for the most part, though it clearly ripoff some films such as Ferngully and Avatar as these films show some common themes. Though this is an animated film, it's seen more as a crowdpleaser. Families seemed to be happy about this product, but it can be dark at times and the subject matter may be a little too much for younger children.Chris Wedge directs a film about a girl named M.K who moves in with her crazy scientist father who has a weird belief about leafmen being real. M.K is skeptic at first, but she encounters Queen Tara of the forest during an unfortunate time and now M.K must join the ranks to save the people of the forest from the evil Boggans.This film boasts a wonderful voice cast and they all do a good job. There are such talent like Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Beyoncé, and even the great Christoph Waltz lending their voices to such good, fantastical roles. I was surprised to see Steven Tyler, but he was able to make a good rock'n'roll riff for the film.Overall, this is a good, action-packed film for the family. It may be dark at times, but it should be relatively safe for younger kids. This film may seem derivative off bigger and better films such as Avatar, but this is a kind of movie you can still enjoy. It's no Toy Story, but then it doesn't have to be. I rate this film 8/10.
