I'm not that familiar with the Woody Woodpecker franchise so if I state some inaccuracies with the characters. Woody Woodpecker has been kicked out of his forest. Finding solace in Camp Woo Hoo, he soon helps the camp overcome obstacles and soon uncovers a plot to get rid of the camp itself.
This is an average movie all around- the presentation is acceptable, the characters are likeable enough, CGI is surprisingly decent and Woody Woodpecker is appealing. I would've wished for the villain to be more menacing but he's slimy enough to root against him. I was initially not bought into Woody's character. I found him annoying and arrogant but he does become a more likable character later on.
Overall, good quality fun for the whole family. Nothing too special, more of a disposable movie dare I say. Recommended for ages 4-10. No suggestive material or serious violence throughout.

I've known nothing about this movie before seeing it. I'm not a cinephile so this definitely subverted my expectations.
This is a case of substance over style. It's funny, it's emotional and incredibly original. I appreciate original ideas and execution. Despite the space setting of this movie, it's certainly not centered around it. It's more of a self-discovery of Jakob. Speaking of Sandler, this is probably the most dramatic he's been. Hanus, his arachnid companion, despite appearing early on as somewhat of an entity of Jakob decaying mental health turns out be an extraterrestrial creature who provides solace for Jakob and allows him to reflect upon himself.
A few nitpicks here however, anyone in the cast besides Jakob are underdeveloped and solely exist when the plot needs them to. The Czech Republic setting is not given much definition and relocating it to other nation wouldn't make much of a difference. Despite it's originality, the film isn't prone to veering into clichés once every while. The score, despite sounding unique most of the time, descends into sentimentality later on, and the over-explanatory script irritated me.
Overall, as much as I praise this film for its visual style, heavy-handed themes and soulful performances, it does lack in some significant aspects that weigh down the overall weight of the central story. Check it out if you want.
