Critics Consensus

An animated feature that's more of the same, Son of Bigfoot lacks innovation but provides entertaining fodder for younger viewers.

Ben Kenigsberg New York Times More or less does what it sets out to do, which is to offer enough visual activity and bromides to keep the very young interested. May 3, 2018 Full Review Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times Doesn't feature quite the budget, visuals or imagination of its American blockbuster counterparts, but it will likely provide a fun 90-minute diversion for kids. May 2, 2018 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) It's deeply derivative, but relatively inoffensive. Young kids will love it. Rated: 3/5 Nov 3, 2017 Full Review Rachel Wagner Rotoscopers What a pleasant surprise! Rated: 4/5 Feb 6, 2019 Full Review Pat Padua Spectrum Culture Suffers from indifferent animation and terrible music. But its characters and script are engaging enough to make the never-ending cinematic hunt for Sasquatch worthwhile. Rated: 2.75/5 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Tara McNamara Common Sense Media So-so adventure finds the positive in "negative" traits. Rated: 2/5 May 4, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
