Just enjoyed the film. We rarely seen movies with kid explore the space. Hope to see the kid grow up in the next film.

ssjsolidsnake18 October 2019If you or your kids like Wall E you will probably like this The visuals and animations are amazing, I love the creature designs, there are not many space exploration stories for kids out there and this is certainly a nice one.

huuyork017 December 2019Despite being a grown adult, and this clearly being a kids movie; I definitely enjoyed this film.
The animation and graphics incorporated into this film is simply amazing, and completely enjoyable to watch. Although the plot is a bit simple, there was never a moment of boredom throughout the entire film. Starting from the beginning, the film caught my attention and held it all through to the end. I could clearly see this film was well thought out with specific elements carefully placed with smooth transitions between important parts.
The characters within the film stood out, with well animated facial expressions and humor in the right places. The progression allowed me to develop a viewer-character bond, encouraging and stimulating emotions throughout the film - especially towards the end, when the main characters separated.
This is a perfect, heart-warming film that can be watched with the whole family. Lots of creativity went into this film and the artistic nature of the scenery, characters and colorful combinations will draw your entire family in, no matter the age. Definitely recommend it! -
DoubleORoos25 August 2019Go see this when you feel depressed, it will make you feel good. Beautifully made, great designed somewhat imitated by Starwars if you pay attention yet it's still a delight to watch.

lyte-558836 January 2021After my 3rd child was born I looked online for everything and found this movie my then 1 yrs old was hooked on this movie and still loves it at almost 3. She calls it Buck with her baby talk it's not a good word.
You will be put into space watching a kid grow up even more and learn ing to servive with his robot on another planet. There are so many funny and cute tasks that the two are needing to do. This movie can help parents teach their kids a few servial skills even for earth. Explore a whole world with Will, Buck, and Flash. -
craigdoolan30 September 2020I watched this at the cinema with my three children, aged 8, 10 and 12, and all enjoyed it, which I guess is the most important thing.
Visually, the movie is inventive, colorful, and the interesting 'creatures' were highlighted by all my kids as the best part. It's also nice to watch an animation not straight out of one of the big Hollywood studios, though it didn't look that different compared with some of the more interesting animations out there.
Having watched it in English, it's possible some of the awkward dialogue resulted from translation, though the voice actors are fine. What is really surprising is the complete lack of any story or plot whatsoever. It's almost like there was no story-boarding done at all at the start of the film, I'm surprised something could get a green-light without at least some form of plot (even if it's a poor one). Overall a wasted opportunity given the obvious money and creativity that went into the films animation. -
fabiopontidoro25 April 2020Music is almost not used at a narrative level. The rhythm sometimes becomes too slow and dilated, especially at the end.

dwarish25 August 2019My little girl loved this movie. She especially liked flash and where Astrokid risked his life to help his friends. She greatly enjoyed the entire film and asked me to highlight the wood shelled guy, all the plants and the hailstorm as some of her favorite scenes. She also asked that I rate this as 600 million thousand. As a parent I would rate this a 7. Good messages in it and some touching relationships between characters.

nicolasmaczk25 August 2019I can watch kid's animated movies and I mostly love them all, the stories are always nicely done. But this one...It's as uneventful as it gets, nothing happens from start to finish. It's not a "feel good" movie, it's not an "adventure" movie, it's barely sci-fi but at the end it's nothing. I don't understand how such a poor story got such beautiful CG. "Astro kid" gets separated from his parent at the start and the movie fails completely to make you feel that this is a key moment. The writers threw a bunch of "things to do" for "Astro kid" that are resolved in minutes, after a hour I understood that nothing will happen, there's no tension, no build up, the only time I felt something was when "Astro kid" had to say goodbye to "Flash". Maybe very small children who don't really understand words yet will love the CG, but I don't think it'll hold against a disney/pixar/... or any other studio. Such a waste of CG. The artists are great, the only "weird" thing was the beatle, it makes no sens in the rest of the CG. I wouldn't recomend this movie for kids, only if they're under 3 or 4. Adults, forget it, it's just a bunch of nice CG put together.

samnlm29 August 2019Amazing graphics: very colorful once the Astro Kid begins exploring the planet with his robot. I enjoy a good story in any genre and this one is not bad at all.

LTPHarry12 January 2020This is a French animated movie that was dubbed into English and given the name of "Astro Kid". Do I like it? Well, I don't.
The first problem I have with is the name the company who dubbed it gave. What the heck is "Astro Kid"? It just makes me think they were trying to cash in with the Astro Boy franchise. It doesn't work, because there is absolutely no connection between both. They should have just kept the original name and translated it to something like "Terra Willy: Journey to a Mysterious Planet" instead.
The animation is actually quite good for what it is. They wouldn't have been able to go through with the budget bigger-name companies would for, but nonetheless still nice-looking.
The story is about... well I cannot remember. The story is easily the most forgettable part of this movie and if I could remember, then my brain would easily lose what it was about.
The voice acting is also quite neat, in both English and French. Although IMDB doesn't list many people who worked on the dub, we have Landen Beattie voicing Terra, and Jason Anthony (His name used to be Jason Canning, but he changed it) voicing Buck.
Overall, animation and voice acting cannot save an animated movie like this one, especially if they have a story that I completely forgot about. -
festive23 December 2020This is actually a really good kids movie that an adult can enjoy. It's worth much more than the score it has received.
Very good storyline, just the right amount of humour, action, suspence and mystery.
It has borrowed themes from several other movies yet it's unique in its own right.
Well worth to see. My 5yr old daughter can't wait for me to buy it on DVD and watch number 2 when / if its released. -
vojtkodominik14 November 2021This movie is just so good. Honestly I had really good expectations for this movie and they fulfilled them. I love animation and this movie is just so well made, it's honestly just gorgeous. The saturated colours and the unique environment it's a work of art! The planet is so well thought out, everything has a purpose in the world and you don't really expect that from a kid movie. But let's talk about the story, I think it's great. I mean it won't be full of drama and such but it's a child movie of course it won't it does not need to. The best part of the film is the emotional decision of the main character and how he understand the world step by step. There are real emotional challenges in the movie and that makes it so good for children because they can learn from it. I am a grow man just turned eighteen not so long ago and if I can enjoy it I think anyone who likes animated movies can! Lovely movie! I would recommend!

eprins-916-5278764 March 2020My son is two and a half and this is his favorite movie. We watch the German version (5 times so far) and the voices are done really well. It looks pretty, the story is simple but cute and there is a good mix of action and fun. The only real downside for me is the music but obviously my kid does not care about that. Of course, this movie cannot compete with the likes of Wall-E, Up, Monsters, Inc, Toy Story etc. but it is perfect for kids who are too young to follow a more complex story. I hope there will be a sequel...because I want to see it.

CheriePage29 March 2021Terra Willy is an intelligent and beautifully animated movie. Although it takes place on an unknown planet the lessons that boy Willy learns are easily transferrable to any jungle with unknown plants and creatures. The vegetation on the planet is of stunning detail and beautifully shot, there is a lot to discover. The scenes of problem solving and playing fun games are well balanced. Being separated from his parents Willy must also learn some social skills. The music is mostly subtle in the background. At the end of Willy's training he will use all that he has learnt in a short fight action scene, full of unexpected turns. Most of the movie is a discovery and survival training. It is easily comprehensible and fun to watch. Despite all the hazards it is a feelgood view suitable for all ages. There are many good lessons to learn from this French animation.

cschardijn12 February 2022Just Wow! We watched this movie with the whole family. We were totally pleasantly surprised. Just the day before we watched 'The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild'. But this movie was so much better! Not only the storyline was better, but the special effects and camera views where literally out of this world.
So refreshing to see this one of a kind animation movie. We absolutely loved it! They should have done more marketing and promotion for this movie. I was glad that we found this little gem of a movie! Hats of to the animators of this movie! -
jordymadueno22 July 2020It's amazing. First I watched the movie in Spanish and hate it due to the leading role. Then I watched it again with the original audio in French and I loved the movie. Hence, listen to the original it can change everything. It's mainly because in Spanish Willy is unbearable. Everything else is great, I loved the colors, designs, the production itself. Sure, the premise is weak but totally bearable.

jewelch15 December 2020Really sweet This movie was super cute, sweet, and clean. There was a tad of potty humor but not nearly as much as other movies these days. The rock monsters might be a little scary for sensitive little ones but they are tame compared to most monsters. There was a little sadness but overall this movie was upbeat and beautiful with a message of friendship, loyalty, and hope. LOVED IT James Welch Henderson, Arkansas 12/14/2020

camarokid-2999926 May 2021I don't understand the other reviews on here that talk about it missing a story line. Either they fell asleep or just lack basic comprehension. The story line was great- I would write a summary of it but you should take the time to watch it for yourself.

shiprajb5 March 2021The setting was cool and vibrant. The characters endearing. The plot kept my attention and was well written. My kids and I enjoyed the film very much!

JoelChamp8526 March 2021A refreshing change to see a French 3D adventure animated film. Based in space and on an unknown planet, Willy is a natural born explorer as he encounters all sorts of cool alien creatures ranging from small to very large. The character/creature styles are fairly simple but well designed and nicely rendered, and the animation is smooth and fun. Not sure if there's a dubbed version for kids, but I'd recommend the native French language because it sounds cool.

rune197326 December 2020I just watched the film i am 27 yrs old and loved it very good for kids to or anyone who likes this sort of film. But this reminds me of a VR game called - Robinson: The Journey - but anyway i doubt they will but i hope they make a sequel for this.
