Stick Man

A fun little toon that made me feel happy, just like it should for a 44 year old haha, I'm still a kid at heart and most kids will probably love it.

I stumbled upon stickman by accident, forced the hubby to watch- he knew once I saw a clip that I HAD to see it. I fell in love with this movie big time

The characters and the simplicity, it was charming and intriguing. I think my Husband was pretty tolerant, he didn't fight it too much, so maybe he secretly enjoyed it- he sure saw that I enthusiastically did.

My only regret is that my mother isn't here to see it, she would have loved this character "Stickman" as much as me.

I need more. This could easily be a series !!

It brought me joy, and entertainment which is more than I can say for many things I watch.

Stick Man is an endearing adaptation of Julia Donaldson's children's book featuring the voices of Martin Freeman, Sally Hawkins and Hugh Bonneville. It remains faithful to the rhyming text.

Stick Man lives in the family tree with his family. Stick lady and stick kids or should they be twigs?

However while he is out for a jog he gets snatched by a dog and there begins a series of events leading him to be taken further away from home and seemingly no chance of finding his way back to the family tree as the seasons come and go. Luckily for Stick Man there is a festive tinged ending in sight for him.

Stick man takes a lot of knocks in this heart-warming CGI cartoon adaptation but he is a kindly soul but at a loss as to why people do not see him as a person but just as a stick.

As a slightly cynical parent it is easy to be dismissive of these types of Christmas day special cartoons but I found this to be charming.

Nothing special to say about this movie except that it is one of those best cartoons or animations based on a book. Simple, magical, funny, sweet, inspirational. For example it inspired me to build some small device similar to branch and let river or even just a stream bring it to far far away. Something I always imagined as a kid. Also flying in air either in real vehicle or in from of toys like drones. Good for Christmas and New Year. Reminds me of some religious or spiritual teaching that even branches are alive.

I recently watched "Stick Man" (2015), and I thought it was a charming little film. It's based on the beloved children's book, and I appreciate how it brings the story to life with colorful animation and a simple, yet engaging plot. The adventure of Stick Man as he tries to get home to his family is both heartwarming and relatable for kids and adults alike.

The animation is quite nice, with a whimsical style that captures the essence of the book. The characters are cute, and there's a nice mix of humor and drama that keeps you invested in Stick Man's journey. My only criticism would be that some parts felt a bit drawn out, making it lose a bit of momentum in the middle.

Overall, I'd give "Stick Man" a solid 7 out of 10. It's a delightful watch, especially for families, but I think it could have been tighter in pacing. Still, it's worth checking out if you're in the mood for a light-hearted story about perseverance and love.
