Smallfoot (2018)
7/10
love the yetis
6 December 2018
Migo is a yeti living in an isolated community at the top of a mountain. The yetis have their own unique vision of the world and origin myth which is engraved on ancient stones wore by the Stonekeeper. Migo is learning to ring the gong from his father which raises the snail-sun every morning. One day, he is almost crushed by a crashing plane and he finds the impossible Smallfoot, a human being. Before others can see the evidence, the plane falls off the mountain. Nobody believes him except for a secret society of Smallfoot truthers. He goes down the mountain and encounters Percy Patterson, a struggling internet wildlife presenter.

I really love the yeti world. I love their origin myth and their isolated world view. The human world is far less compelling and I don't like Percy's story. It would be so much easier for Percy to be a climber who finds the yeti community. All that internet stuff is annoying and unnecessary. If not for the yetis, I may not like this movie. I just love these yetis and the ending is lovely.
