Smallfoot (DVD)

Thanks

Loved this movie! Definitely recommend for the whole family.

This movie had a theme about being ready to question long held beliefs. If you note from other reviews, some folks find that idea highly offensive. If this describes you, then you would likely HATE the movie.For families that believe that truth is more important than how long an idea has been held, this movie could open out a good discussion regarding this topic.Its not overly simplistic either. If beliefs change...the sense of security changes, roles in society change. That all has to be weighed in when and how to change.The ethical question regarding is it acceptable to lie for supposedly good reasons...is raised as well.You will find other topics such as this in this film which could foster family discussion.There was a bit of slapstick in the film ie depicting a yeti falling as a comedy break. Im not a fan of slapstick comedy.Ordinarily I would have taken a star off for that. I think the attempt at putting actual content in G rated family film overrode that negative so I still rated the film 5 stars.I find the other reviews fascinating that state in effect that questioning beliefs is improper....even if it involves cartoon Yeti.Make some snacks and watch the film.I will put the film away for a bit and watch it again.To the writer(s), great job in trying to actually SAY something with your work.

Good morals. Good humor.

It's definitely a cute, well done movie. My kids and I really enjoyed it.The main themes involve friendship, honesty, forgiveness, and being true to yourself.That being said, the negative reviews aren't wrong. The story is very much framed as "all dogma is wrong, and anyone that asks you not to question things is hiding the truth". The story is deeper, and provides a clear justification for the Yetis' false religion, but it still ends up having strong overall anti-religion vibes.If anything, I'd suggest that it provides an excellent teachable moment for "Even well intentioned lying often causes more trouble in the end."
