Mission Yéti

Let's get it out - it's not MCU, DC, PIXAR or any other Attention deficit disorder production, filled with shaky cam, jump cuts, explosions, P. C. or Woke characters, desperately trying to mimic the last blockbuster that attracted the attention of the muggles. So if you don't like this - congrats - you're one of those muggles for whom Wholly Weird, et al, make ugly radio. I'm reminded of the snark, "It's French, don't try to explain it..." No bombastic eye tearing state of the art CGI - just a story. A story with a humble moral : don't jump to conclusions before you get to the end of the story. It's not "Fantastic Planet" - but it has its own internal logic. I rather enjoyed it, and that's all one can expect - entertainment.

Entirely forgettable. Perhaps the English translation loses something but the dialogue is unconvincing and robs the characters, with the possible exception of Tensing, of any likeability. The 3d animation is quite nicely done and the backdrops have a coherent watercolour style but cheap tricks like a lack of interaction between objects and snow make it all look a bit like a thrown together TV show at times. And asking why your captain is sailing south having just crossed the Atlantic from Canada to the eastern med is just one example of several weird moments that throw you out of the story.

Please do some research before making movies. If you are trying to potray nepalese character then better not mix its language with some others. Most of the words that Sherpa guys spoke is Hindi for FYI. And Nepalese people dont eat so called Chapati. And we dont even know what Saheb means. Please respect the language and culture of others. Try to get some expert before making such movie.

It's 1950's Quebec City, Canada. Amateur detective Nelly Maloye encounters assistant scientist Simon Picard. He believes in the existence of the Yeti. He has three months to find the Yeti in the Himalayas. They and Picard's bird board a ship to cross the oceans. This Canadian animation is more fitting for the TV screen. The block animation is TV level. The story is simplistic. There is very little tension. It's like the stereotypical Canadian niceness has made the story bland. They don't have an antagonist. It's a series of obstacles without a foe to battle. It's fine for little kids, but nothing much for anybody else.

Pretty nicely animated, but further in the movie lacking any thrill or sense whatsoever, one of the worst animations ive ever seen, which is quite sad to know that there actually can be one.

The story was a scrambled mess of stereotypes. We have a wealthy benefactor to a museum; a detective who just accidentally shows up while being chased; a museum curator who believes in Yetis; a Himalayan family. All go on a hunt in the Himalayas for the Yeti, and all turn out to be not-believable cartoonish characters. Add really poor animation quality - flat washed out 2-D backgrounds, and central characters that look like plastic animated toys. Oh, dialogue was grade school level dumb e.g. they kept saying, "Are we there yet!".

source: A Yeti Adventure

An explorer and a detective are hired by a wealthy spoiled brat (whose family money funds a museum) to find proof that yetis exist. After long convoluted travel they finally come upon the yetis. There are several of them living happily together in a tribe. After some interaction the explorer group decides to keep their discovery to themselves because they know that the world will hunt the yetis down and put them in museums if word gets out. Knowing that the yetis are safe the explorer and the detective set off on further adventures. I'm a grown adult but I still enjoy the occasional movie whose main target is children. This one had real potential but it was too drawn out and very boring. I hate to interject realism here but there is no way they would have survived traipsing all over that rough wintry terrain with no food or adequate provisions (most of which were lost when their plane crashed). Plus they had to drag their guide along behind them on a sled because he hurt his leg. It was all just way too ridiculous. If I'm an adult who has a pretty good attention span and I got bored-there is no way young children will be able to follow this. The yetis only show up towards the end of the film and they aren't on screen for long. Don't know if there was some kind of language barrier breakdown due to this being Americanized but it just didn't translate. There are other yeti movies out there like Abominable (2019) and Smallfoot (2018) that have done a better job. Watch those instead.

It's a cartoon, it's fiction, it's just intertainment for young audiens. So if isn't historically right or language either, get over it. It's for Kids to watch.
