'Mumfie's Quest: The Movie'
(Various / DVD / NR / 2014 / Lionsgate)
Overview: Mumfie, a little elephant with a big heart, ventures far away from home in search of friendship and adventure. Along the way he meets new friends, Scarecrow and Pinkey.
DVD Verdict: Simply put, 'Mumfie's Quest: The Movie' is a really good, very nicely done movie for the younger kids in your family. Remarkably innocent, given the world we no live in, devoid of all new daily pop culture references, sure it might be a little long to keep the full attention of your little ones, but Mumfie's adventure around the globe is one jam-packed with interesting, and colorful info.
A truly delightful little movie, 'Mumfie's Quest: The Movie' has some great additional characters for the kids to lock into also. That said, personally, Mumfie and Scarecrow are my first two favorite characters. The rest of the characters are cool also though, although the Pirates seem a little rough around the edges (but, I guess they should be!).
In closing, sure the animation quality isn't great, but the lil' 'uns won't notice such things. Instead they'll be glued to this delightful adventure of a tiny baby elephant and his friends found along the way. I wish I had had an adventure like he did and I really wish there were more adventures like this out there to buy! This is a Full Screen Presentation (1.33:1) enhanced for 16x9 TVs.
