Excellent, but...

Excellent movie... except the story became boring.It should have more interaction with the characters of the tribe instead of being an endless quest...They should have followed the original comics more closely.Anyway, it's a good movie for kids.42 comic book issues were publish in french.Yakari is a young Sioux Native American who has the ability to understand and speak animal languages. During his adventures, he meets all sorts of North American animals. His best friends are a girl Sioux, "Rainbow", a Sioux boy "Buffalo Seed" and his pony "Little Thunder". He has a totem animal, "Great Eagle", who frequently appears to him to give him critical advice.The comic shows a very positive view of the culture of the Sioux and depicts them as peaceful people who live in harmony with nature.

Life and messages

I have to admit - I did not expect this to go so deep - human nature, connections, life, how we view animals and many other things. The movie really is telling us (and our kids or kids in general of course) something. And it is a really good message.While it may not be Pixar in many regards, it still holds its own and then some. The quality of the animation is high (at least that's how I perceived it) and the story is more than intriguing. There is suspense there is an unwilling bond ... and there are adventures ahead of us. With a little boy in the midst of it all.And apparently it is french. And I only point this out, because it centers around native Americans (don't roll your eyes, this has nothing to do with wokeness, I used to say Indians as well - I sometimes still do, old habits and what not). But while this is quite specific and I reckon inclusive in that regard .. it also is inclusive in the form that it is universal theme wise. A movie for kids, parents and everyone else. I reckon I should seek out more of this Yakari ... and there seems to be a lot more of him (sorry if I can't compare it to previous and/or other version that have been released, movie or (comic)book wise) ...
