An Extremely Goofy Movie

An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000) is a straight to DVD sequel to A Goofy Movie (1995), and when it comes to straight to DVD Disney sequels, they are usually not good. But I thought An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000) is not that bad of a sequel.

Goofy and his son Max are still likable characters and have a good father and son relationship. Having Max go to college was not bad of an idea, along with having a X-Games tournament he wants to win and to beat one of the popular teams in the games.

The animation for this straight to DVD movie is good, like the backgrounds and the character movements in the animation are not that bad, along with some nice shots of the background. The movie has some little funny moments, but sometimes it does not work all the time and can feel awkward when it happens.

The movie does have some emotional moments involving Goofy being upset at Max leaving for college and it does have some serious moments. There are also some scenes that are weird or random that I was questioning but it is not much of an issue, along with some 70's music being in this movie at times when certain scenes happen.

An Extremely Goofy Movie (2000) is of course not better than the first movie, but it is not bad to watch if you did like the first movie. Like I have said already, this movie is not one of those bad straight to DVD Disney sequels it is fine to watch.

I watched this with my 4 year old and don't get me wrong it was watchable, had somewhat of a story but goofy obsession with Max is crazy, slightly creepy even.

As I slowly approach my twenties I must say I'm truly impressed by this movie which actually manages to entertain me, even if I'm pretty sure that I'm older than the target group. Goofy's son Max goes to college to finally get Goofy of his back, unfortunately Goofy misses Max so much that he decides to follow Max.

This movie's greatest assets lies in ace animations and some rather entertaining slapstick. Goofy is both funny and sad and Max and his friends are an interesting bunch of characters. The movie sometimes feel a bit slow moving but there's more often than not something amusing waiting behind the corner.

Shortly put, this is good clean entertainment for kids as well as parents and teens.

7/10

I was a big fan of the original 'A Goofy Movie' and was eagerly awaiting the sequel when I saw an advertisement for it prior to Thanksgiving in 1999.

An Extremely Goofy Movie takes place Four or five years after the original and involves Goofy's son Max going off to collage and freedom. This depresses the Goof who then is fired from his job at a toy factory. In today's economy one cannot get a good job without a degree and the Goof decides to go back to collage, the same college as Max.

Max on the other hand has visions of freedom and the 'X games' dancing in his head and presumably girls and keggers as well; though he former is glossed over and the latter ignored for the sake of the small set. These dreams are rudely interrupted by the return of Goofy who, dressed in '70's clothes, immediately begins treating his boy as, well his boy.

Max must contend with both his father and a group of yuppie skum low lives known as the gammas. The gammas are all about winning at any cost and not above cheating to accomplish that.

A sub plot involves Goofy dating the school's librarian and the only other person in the world who shares Goofy's affinity for the '70s.

At its heart 'An Extremely Goofy Movie' is about how despite the fact that children grow up there is still a bond between parent and child that cannot be broken. It does this without becoming too sappy and always retains its good humor. My only complaint is that Disney did not release it to theaters first this is definitely a movie that would have worked on the big screen. Go buy it or at least rent it.

It's a good movie, I watched it on Netflix today. It wouldn't be good for fans of the first. But it would be good for Goof Troop fans. Anyways, it's a good movie Although it gets a little sad But it does have a happy ending I suggest it for all Goofy fans There is some positive messages It's not released on Blu-Ray yet but on Netflix. Enjoy the movie on Netflix then get it on DVD if you want, or if you don't like it you don't have to watch it again but it is a good movie for kids (mainly tweens) And if you like it you can watch goof troop or the first movie. Last thing, Enjoy the movie on Netfilx :D :D :D :D :D :D
