	Author	Review
United States	Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter	"This mildly entertaining and very family friendly outing will play best with tykes who aren’t quite ready for the more sophisticated meta-fictions of Pixar or DreamWorks"	POS
United Kingdom	Leslie Felperin The Guardian	"It's a fundamentally daft premise, but the film-makers have fun with it, sprinkling wry one-liners along the way to perk things up and threading the plot on a surprisingly strong emotional through-line. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS

United Kingdom	Kevin Maher The Times	"It's deeply derivative, but relatively inoffensive. Young kids will love it (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Kimber Myers Los Angeles Times	"The script misses the spark of better family films with its overly complicated plot and lackluster dialogue. However, 'The Son of Bigfoot' features some nice animation"	NEU
