Though Goofy always means well, his amiable cluelessness and klutzy pratfalls regularly embarrass his awkward adolescent son, Max. When Max's lighthearted prank on his high-school principal finally gets his longtime crush, Roxanne, to notice him, he asks her on a date. Max's trouble at school convinces Goofy that he and the boy need to bond over a cross-country fishing trip like the one he took with his dad when he was Max's age, which throws a kink in his son's plans to impress Roxanne.

3.5/5
This movie is excellent for the little ones up through the preteen years. They'll like the slapstick, the wild and wacky antics of a cartoon cross-country adventure and Max's quest to be cool at school. Go to Full Review

"A Goofy Movie" looks slapped together with about as much care as a kid takes making mud pies at the beach. The Script is abysmal and the animation just barely adequate. Go to Full Review
Leslie Felperin Sight & Sound Apr 1
Although A Goofy Movie resurrects a major character of the Disney short cartoons of the 30s-50s - the gormless canine star, Goofy - viewers expecting a nostalgic recreation of the old-fashioned, small-town world he once lived in are in for a shock. Go to Full Review

...the characters in "A Goofy Movie," for all their cartoonish ways, are a lot like you and me. And that's what gives the movie its depth and resonance. Go to Full Review

Children will love the animation and music, and parents can relate to some of the positive messages conveyed in the film. Welcome to the '90s, Goofy. You fit right in. Go to Full Review

The movie might be "Goofy," but like its stumbling, good-natured namesake, it has its heart in the right place. Go to Full Review

Jerod S @jeroduptown Dec 11 Ages pretty well for something from the 90s. Cool to have a story about father and son, too....not common anymore. See more Amor A @Cinemalover_09 Dec 10 Um dos melhores filmes da Disney. Marcou a infância de muitas pessoas e até hoje é um filme impactante que envelheceu bem. See more Miguel C @Miguel3110 Dec 8 Um filme Pateta (ou Pateta: O Filme) é um daqueles filmes que você acha que vai ser entediante, mas se torna uma animação engraçada, interessante e traz de volta às telas, um dos personagens mais queridos da Turma do Mickey. See more Jace T @CineChamber Dec 6 A Goofy Movie is one of those classic movies that I grew up with, but it still sits high on how good a movie it is even as an adult. There is tons of iconic stuff that came from this film, including the popstar, Powerline. You can still find merch being sold at Hot Topic from this film in 2025. Also, that pizza always looks amazing and I wanted to eat it. See more Sarah S. @Braxton188 Dec 5 The villain in this movie is the car’s glove box. See more Ellis Y Nov 11 Really fun movie. Another great success of Disney's golden era. Its a heart warming father and son story that'll have you smiling with goofy being loveable as ever. See more Read all reviews
