RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
TheLittleSongbird I really liked A Goofy Movie, it is not my favourite Disney movie, but it was charming, funny and touching with some great music and a sweet story. An Extremely Goofy Movie does have its moments, but while A Goofy Movie is very good in my book, this is just so-so.The voice acting is very well done though, both Bill Farmer and Jason Marsden capture Goofy and Max perfectly. Plus Goofy provides the most amusing moments, but he isn't as funny admittedly here. The animation is good enough, it is colourful and at least tolerable to look at. The film also moves at a good pace, while the soundtrack while not as catchy or as touching is worth the listen.However, An Extremely Goofy Movie lacks the heart and magic of A Goofy Movie. The film is too short I think, so some relationships and the story and script are not as well thought out this time around. Goofy and Max's relationship here is very awkward and sometimes uncomfortable to watch, I actually felt sorry for Goofy more than I did for Max which didn't happen in A Goofy Movie, then I cared for them both. The absence of Roxann is notable too, that was a pivotal point of A Goofy Movie and what made it so heart-warming and realistic. While I liked Goofy, I actually felt somewhat indifferent towards Max. He is not as easy to relate to and he was a bit of a bore. Also there were numerous points in the movie where I got really frustrated with him.The other characters I cared little for either. They are either underdeveloped or fall into the stereotypical category. The story is a let down here, it is predictable and rather ordinary with a number of disconnected moments. And like others have said, this movie feels very contradictory in comparison, not just with Roxann but I don't think I ever saw Max behave the way he did here. The writing and humour are also not as strong. The humour does have its amusing moments, such as Max's shocked reaction in one scene and a few parts to do with Goofy, but it is not enough. When it does happen, it is never more than amusing, and at worst some parts come across as rather mean-spirited.All in all, a bland and disappointing follow-up to a very enjoyable film. 5/10 Bethany Cox
disdressed12 this Sequel to A Goofy Movie is actually a better movie,in my opinion.i found it much funnier and less schmaltzy than the original.and there are no musical numbers slowing it down,at least that i can i recall.it's also faster paced and i liked the story a bit more.it has pretty much the same characters as the original,with the same voices,and a few other characters,as well.and,like the first one,there's also a lesson to be learned.and though i may watch the original again,it won't be for awhile.but i would actually watch this offering more than once,and more often,so for me it was worth the purchase.for me,an Extremely Goofy Movie is a 7/10
moviefreak907 OK, so heres the story: little Max has grown up and he's 18 now (where has the time gone?) so he and his friends go to college and enter this skating competition called the x-games, against Bradly Uppercrust III, a brat who has always won the X-Games. then much two Max's horror, his dad Goofy, in missing him so much, loses his job, and can't get another without a college degree, so he must go back too school. There, he meets the lovely Ms.Silvia Marpole. It was OK i guess, but the whole thing with Max dissing his dad didn't fly for me. i mean 'Leave me alone and get you're own life'? show the guy a little love! then they're was that weird café girl and brad-the-brat! all-and-all it was OK, but not as good as the first.
Klee15 Back when I first saw A Goofy Movie, it instantly became one of my favorites, and it remains so to this day. As Disney is always inclined to do, they decided to make a sequel that has come to be titled An Extremely Goofy Movie. Actually, Goof Troop Episode X would've been a more appropriate title.Let it be said right now that this movie is definitely not as good as A Goofy Movie. It's not cool, though it tries to be with its ESPN references and lots and lots of skateboarding. It's not compelling, though it tries to use a lot of the first movies techniques. And, quite frankly, Goofy has been reduced to a side character in his own feature film.Right off the bat, the premise of this movie is sorely overused. The badly beaten sports contest with the cheating opposing team already told me that they had no real ideas for this movie. As I said earlier, Goofy isn't even one of the main focuses of this movie. It is really all about Max, PJ, and Bobby's sports event. While it's nice to see these new Disney characters get a little more screen time, I doubt anybody would've chosen to ignore Goofy in the process. Like A Goofy Movie, the strength of An Extremely Goofy Movie is in its characterization. Seeing Max go off to college and Goofy's feelings about it all was kind of interesting and rather unexplored territory in my opinion. The librarian, Sylvia is a believable girlfriend to Goofy and a pretty fun character on her own. And the beret-girl (no name?) has a pretty cool personality. But it is completely overshadowed by the more trite story about the X-games, and not in a good way.The animation is, for such a poor movie, is actually quite nice, as are the character designs. However, the music leaves a lot to be desired. I think the worst thing about the music is that it departs from the "cartoony" feel of the first movie; we really lose sight of the fact this is a movie featuring Goofy very fast. Actually, sometimes I could've sworn I heard some things in this movie in the old Nick cartoon, Hey Arnold.Overall, I definitely can't say this movie is as good as its predecessor. It's not unwatchable, but it has none of the magic or feel that A Goofy Movie had. The DVD also leaves a lot to be desired. So, if you REALLY want to see what Max is up to in college or see some of Goofy's antics on campus, then give this movie a watch. But don't set your expectations too high for this "Goof Troop Episode X". Despite all this, I really do hope for one more sequel, likely about Max graduating or something or trying to make it in the workforce. But come on Disney, whatever it is, it can be a LITTLE more creative than this...
