A Goofy Movie (1995)


Buena Vista Pictures
Directed by Kevin Lima
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Disney)

Goofy and his teenage son Max struggle to understand each other. After getting in trouble at school, Goofy decides to take him on a cross country vacation. This spoils Max's plans with his new girlfriend, so he tells her a lie about traveling to appear on stage at their favorite pop star's concert. Their first stop is Lester's Possum Park, a hilarious spoof of Disney's own Country Bear Jamboree. A misunderstanding there causes more problems and they are hardly talking to each other. Goofy allows Max to choose their route hoping it will cheer him up, but instead diverts them to the concert. After a few more misadventures, they end up on stage, impressing Max's girlfriend back home and reuniting the father and son. Dated by some bad music parodies of Michael Jackson, but still a lot of fun, with Goofy as good as ever.
