ZoeMovieReviews: Pete's Dragon


Pete's Dragon










This is a 1977 American musical live-action animated film directed by Don Chaffey.



The Plot




It is about an orphan boy running away from he’s abusive parents and brings he’s magical dragon with him. The grand adventure begins from then on.

 

This film is very enjoyable it kind of reminds me of Mary Poppins a bit. This film is worth getting on Blu-ray the picture quality is stunning and amazing.



This film is a musical so bear in mind for some real cringe songs to listen to. Some of the songs were alright, but as I am older now it’s bit of a cringe to listen to, but if you are into that kind of thing you’ll love it.



Some of the scenery in this film looks very realistic. The sky looks so real like!



There are very good laughs in this film. Most of the comedy in this is rather childish and slapstick. For example; the abusive parents fall into the mud by the dragon.











The theme to this is rather joyful and very happy. It did make me smile at times which is good. This film is a nice, sweet, adventurous family fun film.



I loved Elliott the dragon he was my favourite. The acting this film is pretty decent.



The plot to this film is very interesting. The only issue is I think the film ran on far too long to be honest could be a bit shorter as I got bit bored at times with it.



The ending to the film was great. I really enjoyed the ending.



Overall, this is a great family film. It can get dull at times, but if you love cringe songs and adventure you may like this. It is worth watching, although it’s not my favourite live action Disney movie.



Rating: 6/10

I have seen the first one which I thought was brilliant. It is probably best for anyone who’s interested in this film that they should watch Dead Snow (D ød Snø) as well. Although, the first few scenes of the film is that it’s reminding you some of things that happened in the first film. That I liked, as it gave me an idea of what happened from the first film as I only watc...

It is based on the Danish fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. This is the 28 th Disney classic.   The Plot   A mermaid princess makes a Faustian bargain with a devious sea-witch in order to meet a human prince on land.   I loved this film so much and probably because it is a Disney film.   The animation is this film was really good. The score is very good as well. My favourite song from it was Under The Sea!   The story telling to this film is great! I liked how in some scenes the characters show actual emotion when they are sad or happy. I liked the characters apart from Ursula of course. My favourite character is Sebastian who is the red crab not lobster!   I do have a few favourite scenes from this film. The scenes whe...
