FernGully: The Last Rainforest (Family Fun Edition)
Magic and adventure await in FernGully, a spectacular rainforest where a bat named Batty, whose radar has gone haywire, joins together with Crysta, Pips and the Beetle Boys to save their marvelous world from the evil Hexxus. Ignoring the warnings of her friends, Crysta, the curious tree fairy, explores the world beyond FernGully. She discovers Zak, a real live human who is helping demolish the rainforest. Once Zak sees the beauty and magic of FernGully, he vows to save it. But it may be too late. The Diabolical Hexxus is on the loose and intent on destroying all of FernGully. This animated feature rocks with an original score performed by Sheena Easton, Raffi, Tone-Loc and others.Environmentally friendly animated film with a strong message that doesn’t club anyone over the head–but it certainly can’t be missed. Zak (voiced by Christian Slater) is a heavy-machine operator whose job is to push over any vegetation in his path. He’s shrunken to wee size, however, when Crysta (Samantha Mat

I think that this is a great movie! For children, families…I’m a teenager now, 15, and, I still watch it. So do my friends. I loved it when it first came out, mind you, I was a little afraid of Hexxus (the toxic blob) but, that’s the point of vilans! It’s a movie with a great message. And, now I can understand that. When I was younger I just loved it because it was very entertaining, and funny. (Mainly because of Robin William’s voice talent as Batty Koda, the lovable lab Bat) Honestly, this movie still makes me think, about the environment, and believeing in myself. “All the magic of creation exists within a single tiny seed.” I think it’d be a crime, not to buy this for your family. 😉 I’ve read the reviews adults give the movie, they say “It’s just ok”, and, I don’t agree with them, it’s a cartoon, for children, listen to a child’s opinion. I remembered the songs and some lines for years! (Without having to watch it a billion times) It’s fabulous! Plus, the animation, standard one cell it may be, but, it’s beautiful! 🙂 Ok, ok, I think I made it clear, this is a good movie! Get it! Plus, can you really beat the price?? Also, I own the soundtrack, it’s great too!! With songs by Sheena Easton, Raffi, Tone-LOC, and the hilarious Batty Rap (Robin Williams) etc. 🙂

Fern Gully was the first film my parents ever took me to see at the movie theater. Freud said that childhood affects a person’s character, and this movie really did a lot for me (living in a tropical island wich is full of rainforests, it did get me fairy searching). I have this movie when it came out on tape and I still watch it, last time being today. The characters are amazing, Crysta is so much like me and thank God, not a blonde as every animated movie heroine. Zak is totally cool cause he’s not destroying the forest because he’s evil, he’s doing it because he doesn’t care, mainly because of ignorance. Robin Williams is amazing as Batty Koda, as he is in any other role. His lines make me laugh and at the same time dig into your brain. The thing is, that when I saw this movie, I didn’t know english, and yet I understood it. It really did shape my mind and character and it’s made me the tree-loving, pollution-fighting, rainforest-saving, nature-nut I am proud to be today. So this movie, wether I have to buy on DVD when I have kids (I’m only 15 so that’ll be a minimum of 10 years in the future) I want them to see that “all the magic of creation exists within a single, tiny seed”.

This was the last movie that I ever watched with my father before he passed away. So this movie has alot of sentimental meaning but it’s a great movie for children. I saved mine for my daughter to watch. Batty is so funny and the singing in this movie is great. Though Hexas used to scare me when I was younger I loved this movie and I’m in my 20s and I still know every word to it. For parents out there looking for a good movie with a good message, this is the movie you’re looking for!

There are very few movies that we can watch more than once. Fern Gully is one of a handful of them, and it’s great for the whole family! Wonderful catchy music, beautiful and clever animation, creative characters, classic lines, great voices, and a nice, relatively subtle environmental message. There are so many ridiculous movies out there for kids that have the same predictable plots. It’s refreshing to have a movie like this come along. I can’t wait to get it on DVD!

I’ve remembered and loved this movie for years. It’s got great a message for both kids and adults. Robin William’s character is hilarious and unforgettable. Definetly watch. The music numbers and the final scene make it all the worthwhile.
