Featured reviews
Delightful! An incredible voice cast. Endearing animation. A wonderful, adventurous tale to be revisited often by folks of all ages. I give this film an 8 (delightful) out of 10. {Animated Family Short}
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.

Well, I didn't know this was a Christmas short. It somehow ended up in my laptop and now that I've seen it, I thought why not review it especially because it has Dr.Watson or Martin Freeman in it.
It's a fairly simple story with Martin Freeman's Stick Man, who lives with his family and one fine day decides to go for a jog and finds himself in an adventure he wasn't really expecting. That's it. No complications, no hidden meaning. Simple and fun.
The animation had a stop-motion kind of a feel to it. I mean, it looked like stop-motion but nowadays animation has reached such heights that it's difficult to tell the difference between actual stop-motion and artificial. Stick Man's youngest kid is the cutest Stick I've ever seen. The dialogue in the movie consists of rhymes that are said by various elements in the movie like the frog or the pigeon etc. It was basically Toy Story with twigs, oh sorry, Stick Man. Martin Freeman really plays these funny, frustrated characters really well and he conveys it only by the grunts when he slams into an oar and also how his tone changes every-time he says the poem.
Definitely give it a watch. It's only 27 minutes long which has 5 minutes of credits in it. It reminded me that shorts and even full- length films can be made just for the fun of it and this one made me feel like a kid again.

This is a delightful short film and it's nice to watch with the kids. Its visual storytelling is impressive and the music is quite moving. Highly rrecommend recommend.
