In a year with few good animation offerings, this one at least ended the year stronger.After being mistaken for a dangerous beast and torn from his home, he rallies a misfit team of friends for the ultimate adventure to return to his family.īased on the classic childrens book, Ferdinand proves you cant judge a bull by its cover. Still, Ferdinand is often too frantic, but its message is strong and its a pleasant way to spend an afternoon at the movies. The animation is nice but very basic and not filled in as much as one would expect from Pixar.

What I think would improve Blue Sky's efforts on a more technical level, would be the fleshing out of the backgrounds and a more unique visual style.

This is predictable fluff, but actually hilarious, the German stallions had me guffawing, and John Cena and Kate McKinnon do great vocal work. It a shiny piece of animation for modern day families but telling a timely and poignant story that culminates in a touching match in the arena. They've managed to infuse their usual brand of frenetic storytelling and frantic humor with a nice adherence to the source material. It can't go to toe-to-toe with Coco for the animation Oscar, but Ferdinand represents a step forward in quality for Blue Sky Studios.
