Seeing the 7.3 rating here and looking for a family Easter movie, we somehow landed on this gem. I think my 7 year old was attracted to the adorable cartoon "goose" that looks like a duckling!
I feel swindled. Lied to. Robbed. How the heck did this get a 7.3 rating??! I can endure some bad children's TV. The description says that the golden goose discovers the "true meaning" of Easter. So I thought, well hey, this must be about Jesus... right?!
Well folks, considering that Easter is actually NOT about bunnies, chicks, and eggs, I was hopeful that the "true meaning" would have some sort of messaging about JESUS since Easter has been a part of the Christian calendar since the SECOND CENTURY!!
BESIDES the weird messaging about asking random people what "Easter means to them" including people from oThEr ReLiGioNs.....! It was just painfully bad. The animation, the voice overs, the script. I feel like this was made in some kind of freshman level movie course!
If you want to make a non religious Easter movie about bunnies and ducks that's fine. There are already plenty of those. But for the love... don't bill it as a movie about the "true" meaning of Easter!! And for all of you that gave this a high rating, may your tires be flat and your coffee lukewarm!!
