WOODY WOODPECKER (Theatrical Release Brazil 2017)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.4|5.0 Starsììì

Woody Woodpecker—not as good as the original televised cartoon series—fails due to poor script with a trite, overdone environmental theme. Timothy Omundson does not seem well cast for his part. The movie needs a complete makeover to re-capture the original persona of Woody Woodpecker. The film barely makes expenses at box office. It fails to capture the wider age range that the original series captured.
