Jungle Beat: The Movie

Given this film was made on a $8m dollar budget it's amazing how it's the same quality as a $100m animated movie which says something about the people involved in the project. The voice acting is on point, especially that of the alien. The story is wholesome and enjoyable and most children from 3-9 will probably love this movie which is the target audience. The animation quality is flawless throughout and at a really high standard. With the delivery of the film all round been noting less than a masterpiece.

Waaaay better than I expected. Very sweet message and even our 3 year old was able to enjoy it. This does not have the adult appeal of some animated films, but it's great for the kids.

In "Jungle Beat," a mild-mannered alien on a mission of conquest brings the power of speech to a group of friendly jungle animals, forming a friendship that will have cosmic consequences. Ed Kear voices Fneep, the uncommitted conqueror, with an emotive sincerity, lending heart and soul to a stand-out character design, wholly original amongst the storied history of cartoon aliens. A purple lump of ooze with arms and a face, Fneep seems to sparkle with cosmic dust, a distinct look that stands out as the star, though the other character designs are certainly not slacking. When joined by his eccentric ensemble of zany animal friends, this team of unwitting heroes will have you rooting for them with ease. Endearing animation, memorable characters and exciting action makes for a family romp that will give kids a new favorite without becoming a chore for the parents to sit through.

I wish I could say more for this movie, the animation sucks but they added special shading and stuff to make it look good. The plot is awful, and nothing like the old show. The only part I like is when the characters meet the goats.
