Gordy

Gordy is a pretty cute little pig (that also talks, not too convincingly), I'll grant you that, but "he" is plugged into an uninvolving, cheerless, funless, far-fetched plot. Frankly, it's hard to believe that a pig's life could be so boring. The film too often seems like an excuse for some professional country singers to appear onstage and do their stuff; are there kids who are supposed to find those scenes entertaining? (*1/2)

This is one of those obvious el cheapo movies that they make quick when they know a bigger more expensive movie involving something similar is coming a couple months later (Babe) The same thing happened with Antz (a bugs life was made first but was more expensive and was released a couple months after Antz while Antz was cheap and quick)

I thought the movie was very cute...I actually don't like babe that much, I like Gordy better...the person that commented and said it was a horrible, well that was their own opinion...if you haven't seen it, then go out and rent it and judge for yourself. The movie is about a pig that is trying to find his family and on the way gets famous. I love the "goodnight" song that Luke MacAllister sings to his little girl in the film...on the way Gordy finds a few friends (Jenny Sue and Hanky)if you have kids then i suggest this movie...they'll love it...my little brother wont quit watching it...i think tha movie is cute..but you can decide for yourself...

I had the misfortune of seeing Gordy in the theater at the age of ten. Even then, I couldn't stand it. I saw part of it again the other day on TV. Wow, what a travesty. It was bad enough that the pig didn't actually move his mouth with the words, but you can actually hear him snort over his English. The performances are all horrifically over the top, the plot is ridiculous, there are terrible country songs, and, on at least one occasion, a "tree" that moves when leaned against.

If anyone ever tries to tell you that Gordy is "a good family film" or "almost as good as Babe" or any such thing, don't talk to that person anymore. They are not you're true friend. If you value your soul, steer clear of this epic shame of a picture at all costs.

While visiting family with my four year old daughter we found a video of "Gordy" and put it on for her. She loves movies, but after about a half-hour she turned to me and said "I don't like this pig movie". She loves "Babe". It's nice to know she has some taste. The only thing remotely good about this film is Kristy Young, the little girl C&W singer, and the trained piglet seemed like a pretty good swimmer. In the half-hour we watched, the animals never looked like they were talking, the plot was completely uninvolving, and the acting was mediocre at best. One nice thing was finding out the reason that Tom Lester (Eb from "Green Acres") never got anywhere with his career. He's a one-note performer. At least Eb had some decent writers. Now my daughter is happily watching "The Aristocats".
