I'm watching it now. I feel it's my moral duty to warn off other parents from spending money buying or hiring the film. We're watching it on Prime so it's free. I can only describe it as akin to a cartoon pretending to be an full blown animation, but without upbeat tempo tunes, a good storyline or quality animators. I'm not entirely sure it has a storyline either. I should have switched off ages ago. It's sending my kids to sleep, which means I can extract myself from the sofa to make a cup of tea, so it gets 2 marks for that at least. I'm really surprised my children haven't asked me to switch channels.Apart from that it's brilliant.

I could say all of my thoughts about the bad things of this movie first so you just walk away and never see this trash, but I'll start with what I liked.OK, that's all the good things (Yes, everything is there.) now the bad things.The animation is terrible and why there were celebrity voices, I do not know, but I'm pretty sure that they did not expect something so bad! If you are not 4 or under do not watch this movie! This is the worst movie I have ever experienced, it has a weak plot, bad graphics, and Pine Cones that look worse than dinosaur eggs!If you want to, watch it if it's free but do not buy it if you have not watched and checked if you like it because there is a high chance of you regretting it. You have been warned!

First of all, I have to say the Bigfoot looks nothing like a Bigfoot, and I mean that in a bad way. It literally looks like a lump with fur. The animation is horrible to, and I mean Really bad. Some stuff doesn't have shadows or even Shading. The dad also has the most awkward walk cycle Ever! But here's the worst part. IT RIPS OFF MY NEIGHBOR TOTORO! The mom Bigfoot inflates herself, so she can fly, which even looks like that scene from Totoro. A dad and his two daughters move into a house near the forest. SOUND FAMILIAR? Then the house full of pine cones instead of acorns.There is also a completely useless sub-story about a guy that is a jerk to his dog, who tries to catch a Bigfoot. This never gets tied into the main story, ever. Much like the Chris-R "WHERES MY MONEY DENNY?" scene from "The Room" The only thing that keeps it from getting one star is the celebrity voices.

Not a huge fan of the animation, but the story is sweet. Not much conflict, and I like that the family is helping the Sasquatch. Only one real complaint: The dead mother. Why do the makers of kid's films find that so appealing? This movie reminds me a whole lot of My Neighbor Totoro. The animation in that movie is so much better, as are the actors. Both sweet movies about respecting nature and helping out. I like movies with strong female characters for my 2.5 year old to watch, and it's so hard to find them. I am glad my husband stumbled across this movie on Fios.
