Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.
So much average
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
He sounds like Michael J. Fox did in back to the future
When I was younger there were a bunch of movies that I would watch and thought were spectacular! Problem was now that i'm older, i'm realising that quite a few of them weren't as amazing as I thought. So remembering the goofy movie and how much I loved it, I was afraid it wouldn't stand the test of time. But thankfully I was wrong. The movie actually has a really realistic setting. A father trying to connect with his kid, and a kid trying to reach some idiotic fantasy of what it means to be cool. It's funny, not the funniest animated movie i've seen but defernitally gets a few laughs. It has some good film techniques in it, and it can be a bit cheese at times but hey, it's Disney, that's kinda there whole selling point.So in short. The goofy movie is a surprising gem of Disney that adults and young people can enjoy.
A Goofy Movie is a great movie with a very well developed plot and a terrific voice cast. It's an enjoyable, very quick ride, lasting only eighty minutes. In this short amount of time we experience terrific character development between Goofy and Max, his son who is actually the lead role in this film despite what the title may suggest. It's a very sweet film about the complicated relationship between this father and son, as Goofy must cope with the fact that his little boy is growing up and is no longer interested in spending time with him, in the end the two learn that they both truly love and appreciate one another. It is a lot more powerful than you would expect a movie with Goofy as a main character to be. I think the conflicted emotions between these family members can stand out as something very relatable to anyone.I do think that, for a children's film, it's a bit too depressing, the first fifty minutes of the movie is mainly Goofy and Max traveling across country together despite both having very different views on their relationship. There are moments where we see Goofy truly feeling like he hit rock bottom and has lost everything he's ever loved. This serves as a great story arc but I felt that it was a bit too dramatic at times and should have had more happy and upbeat moments in between to keep kids happy.The musical numbers in this film are outstanding, all of them have a really upbeat and feel good tune to it that you can not help but smile to. They also serve as great character development for Max and Goofy, particularly Nobody Else But You, a song that shows how much they truly appreciate each other, and that the bond is still very strong between them despite the difficulties they have had in the past. Funny, sweet and filled with charming characters, A Goofy Movie takes Mickey Mouse's silly sidekick and establishes him as a three dimensional character, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good family film. After landing a date with the girl of his dreams, Max is suddenly forced to go on a father-son vacation with his dad Goofy.
In 2004 Walt Disney was announcing that was closing the Traditional Animation Department. Sixty years of paper animation, tradition and more than that, magic, was coming to end. "Home on the Range" became the last movie made with traditional animation. This notice was received by the longtime fans as a bomb. Claiming that the style was no longer attractive, Disney forgot the past and looked for the future. But it was not just the style that Disney leaves behind, but the soul as well. This review it's about a movie that belongs to the Disney Golden Age and focuses in a character loved by generations: the Goofy. The Goofy won his own series in the early of 1990 decade and also a son, Max. "Goofy Troop" made a great success with the kid and pre- teen public with creative stories and day by day situations. With the success, Disney decided to produce a movie focusing, only not in Goofy, but the relationship between him and his son that was not so developed on the series. But why I start this review talking about the Disney animation style? Just because "The Goofy Movie" it's that kind of film that Disney really doesn't can produce again, even with all the technology we have on these days. Directed by Kevin Lima, the movie was premiered on April 7, 1995 (in Brazil, the movie premiered on July 21, 1995) and made a good presence on the cinema raising more than $ 6,000,000 of box office on the first weekend. As a sequel of the series, the original characters come again. Max has now 14 years old and wants his own life without his father causing shame with his goofy way. He likes a girl named Roxanne, but don't know how to talk with her, freezing when the girl is close. After create a problem on the school, Goofy is advised by the school principal that he have to rethink how he's raising his son. Worried, Goofy decide to save Max of the electric chair, taking him to fish. And then, begins a travel of self-know where father and son will rediscover the meaning of fraternity, trust and love, even if the son grows up, he'll still be a boy for his father. This is the focus of the movie that has a simple and linear screenplay. A moral message at the end and followed by musical sequences closes the production. There's something new on this film? No, absolutely nothing, but this is exactly what makes difference. Sometimes it's not necessary produce a movie full of special effects, action sequences and all of these things. Sometimes, just a good and familiar story, with a soundtrack that really stays on the memory and charismatic and memorable characters really makes difference. And talking about soundtrack, "A Goofy Movie" has an incredible and memorable musical sequences. Performances by Tevin Campbell, music as "Eye to Eye" (I2I) and "Stand Out" is really great. Others, more slowly and sentimental as "Nobody Else but You" sang by Max and Goofy together have its presence. The final sequence when Goofy and Max really seen that the relation between father and son can really be fun it's beautiful and the stage performance with Powerline it's awesome likewise! But "Stand out" really stand out on this film! Twenty years. But unfortunately twenty years make a great distance between generations. "A Goofy Movie" with all its moral lessons and animation style has no place with the kids of these days. If you want feels the nostalgia of the old days, "A Goofy Movie" it's a nice choice. About the new generation, tries to show this movie it's a good thing, but it's possible that the expectation may be frustrated. But make a try, its praiseworthy! Styles that Disney really has lost of decade that cannot be forget. This is "A Goofy Movie"!
