Rating: Summary: Simply hilarious! A road trip you won't forget! Review: "A Goofy Movie" is one of my absolute favorite videos. I've been marveling over this movie for years. Everytime I watch this film, I can't stop myself from laughing. The funny scenes never get old. The story is about a young boy named Max, who is Goofy's only son. Max throws a somewhat sort of concert at his school meeting and steams up the principal. The prinipal calls up Goofy and completely exagerates Max's skit. So then Goofy decides to take his unwilling son, who just finally got a date with the girl of his dreams, on a fishing trip crosscountry. To make a long story short, everything that could poosibly go wrong does, and Max isn't quite getting along with his dad. Goofy and Max eventually fall off of a huge waterfall before they finally realize that they really love each other. But I'm not going to spoil the ending for you. You'll just have to watch and find out, and I guarantee you that you won't regret it!
Rating: Summary: A Great movie! Review: Wow, this is truly one of my favorite movies and fave Disney fliks ever, i am a disney lover.This is about Goofy's son " Max" who wants to impress his girlfriend " Roxanne" by going to a special concert in Los Angeles played by his favorite sinfger " Powerline" ( who is sort of like a Goofy version of Prince), unknown to Goofy, Goof is actually taking Max on a fishing trip but Max decides to change everything so that he can impress her. A highly entertaining, heartwarming and meaningful animated feature full of laughs, insight gags, good animation, great soundtrack and a important lesson about Fathers and Son. If you're a disney fan, i suggest owning this movie on DVD and you won't be disappointed :)
Rating: Summary: Strong story ends with a weak ending Review: A Goofy Movie started out with a huge comical bang and strong storyline concerning father and son. The entire cast of toons and the music made it great fun. But just as Goofy snaps at his son on the edge of a road the writers feel the need to let Goofy's car roll off into the river. Thus killing the emotional compact that could have built up here. A Goofy movie fares as an average film due to this. And did we need to see Goofy and Max singing on top of a car floating in the river? This was the only lame musical number in the movie. A Goofy Movie had the potential to be a great film but sadly they tripped at the finish line.
Rating: Summary: One of Disney's Greatest Unrecognized Accomplishments Review: A Goofy movie was just great. It was so good, that they even made a sequel to it (An Extremely Goofy Movie). Sadly, it wasn't half as good as the original. The Gold Collection DVD wasn't all-bad. It had an episode of Goof Troop, "Calling All Goofs", which was pretty good. I loved the cartoon TV show. (STOP reading if don't want to know the story!!!) It begins when Max is having a dream about his "crush," Roxanne. His dream turns out to be a nightmare because he turns into his father, Goofy. After he wakes up, he rushes to school for "The Big Day." This was the last and only day he had the chance to finally impress her. It turns out that she actually does like him and their first date is set for the end of the school party. Max is at the top of the world until he gets home. Worried that his son would "end up in the electric chair," Goofy takes Max on an unexpected fishing trip to LAKE DESTINY, IDAHO. Before they left, Max had to tell Roxanne why he couldn't make it to the party. Not thinking, he tells her that he was going to see a concert. On this fishing trip, he and Goofy amazingly learn a lot about each other. To make Max happy, his dad does take him to the POWERLINE concert in LA. When they get back home...I won't spoil the ending:) This was entertaining and was one of the best Disney movies ever since The Lion King or Aladdin. This movie's music and all of the songs were just magnificent, except maybe one. I don't know why the studio didn't want to release this movie on a 2-disc Platinum Special Edition. If Disney can put in time for silly films such as The Little Mermaid and Bambi (to be released in the future), then they can surely make a collectors edition of this movie too. This is worth buying, and is definitely worth renting. Siskel and Ebert gave it two thumbs up and so do I.
Rating: Summary: Excellent 'Goofy' movie, for what it's meant to be... Review: Had this movie been made as a full fledge addition to Disney's classic library, this would not do. But just as a pleasent revisit to one of Disney's all time great characters, it better than O.K. The movie deals with a story that I'm sure most sons and dads can relate to, the seperation that begins as the son grows and wants more independence. Max, Goofy's son, has a crush on a girl but a recent event at school leads Goofy to believe that he hasn't been paying much attention to his son. So Goofy plans a road trip for the summer, much to Max's dismay. But before they leave, Max lies to his friends by saying that he is going to L.A to a concert of a popular singer. When Goofy puts Max in charge of the map, he deceives his father by re-routing their trip through L.A., so he can be popular in the eys of his girl The movie is well done, no contrived story or anything like that. Had it been inducted into the "Disney Classic" library, a lot more work would have needed to be done as far as quality goes. The DVD unfortunately, does not present the film in it's original aspect ratio, but does make up for it by including two Goofy Cartoons, each about 20 mins. The first one is recent, "Calling All Goofs" dealing with a Goof family reunion. And the second one is vintage with Goofy helping Donald and Mickey escape from their angry (and unpaid) landlord.
Rating: Summary: Not one of my favorites, but still nice for younger children Review: After first sitting through this movie with my elder sister, I wondered how she managed to rope me into it. I was tired, groaning inwardly, and vowing to avoid this movie at all costs. Why three stars then, if it was such a brain killer? Because, for children around 8-13, and the occasional person such as my dear sister, it was a smash hit that would be remembered for years, or at least for a week. The Goofy antics, and a star cameo by none other than Bigfoot, had her rolling in stiches of laughter even while I was just rolling my eyes. Goofy stays in clutzy form with the extra trouble of single dadhood, while Max is the stereotypical "selfish only child" for a good part of the movie. However, there are a few characters I have to sheepishly admit liking, no matter how... colorful they where. As a Father-Son bonding movie, with memorable characters, and crazy antics it's so-so for adults but great for children.

Rating: Summary: iiiiiiiiiit's BIIIIIIIIG FOOOOOOOOOT!!!!! Review: I first saw this when I was in 5th grade(around the time that this came out), and must have watched it about 3 million times during that year... and guuuueeees whaaaaat? 10 years later, at age 20,, I STILL LOVE IT! It has a good story that I bet everyone once related too sometime in high school... plus the songs, while corny, are very catchy(i love the "Open Road" song), and the "Big Foot" scene is hillarious :) This is a great 90s classic, and a true memory of back when Disney actually made GOOD stuff [...]
Rating: Summary: It's the leaning tower of cheesa~~~ Review: OH god this movie is great. I saw it for the first time when I was probably 8 or 9 and I used to hate Goofy. I saw the movie and I absolutely fell in love with it. I just bought the DVD a couple of days ago and still love it. It is definatly one of my favorite Disney movies--I can't go throught watching it once without cracking up hysterically every time. It's the movie I remember making me remember who Pauley Shore was and the first time I'd ever seen Bigfoot disco to the Bee Gees. It's definatly a classic.
Rating: Summary: I love this movie! Review: I watch this movie everyday and I know all the words to the songs! I think everyone will like it. It's so funny and it's has alot to do with teenagers in a cartoon way. You should get it.
