I actually have a fondness for the original but this sequel was disappointing...Most of the movie gets lost in an uninspired and frankly irritating stoI ry.

Lots of action, peril in animated film with a message.

They'll likely have a good time with what is for the most part a charming film that unfortunately gets lost in the wilderness of an action-heavy back half designed to show off the visuals rather than pay off the ideas it was toying with earlier.

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.
