A Modestly Budgeted But Big Hearted Adventure

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2014

You would certainly be forgiven if 2013’s direct-to-DVD Koala Kid from 20th Century Fox failed to register a blip on your CG radar. In a year known for films like Despicable Me 2, Monsters University, Rise of the Guardians, Epic and so on coupled to the fact that the DVD was initially available only through Wal-Mart as part of an exclusivity deal, it’s a pretty safe bet to say Koala Kid went largely unnoticed. And considering the fact that this is one of many examples of a CG feature that actually begins life as foreign film, gets a dubbed English vocal track (and a new name), and is released domestically, overlooking this one didn’t seem too big a crime. However, after finally having a chance to devote the 85-minutes required to go along for the Australian adventure last night, I can conclude this one is actually one of the stronger entries to the genre.

Koala Kid actually began life in 2012 as a South Korean/ American collaboration titled The Outback for most of the world. Built on a surprisingly low budget of $5.3 million, the film managed to return $4.6 mil at the Chinese box-office alone. From there it began distribution on the home market, arriving in the US as Koala Kid thanks to 20th Century Fox the following year (April, 2013).

Coming in at a run-time of 85-minutes and wearing a PG rating for mild action, peril and some rude humor, the film centers on a rare albino koala bear named Johnny (Rob Schneider) who, because of his difference in appearance, is bullied and outcast. He ends up aligning himself with Tasmanian dev Hamish (Bret McKenzie) and photographer primate Higgins (Frank Welker) and together the trio manage to make a small name for Johnny as an attraction at the local carnival freak show.

A wagon accident on roue to the carnival’s next stop results in their becoming entangled in the struggles of an oppressed population of billabong dwellers being controlled by a malevolent croc named Bog (Alan Cumming).

Of course grander themes of bullying and, if you really read into it, the narrow minded scope of racism are present within the prose though in delivery, the lessons are subtle enough not to feel force fed. The story presents itself as one of adventure with some comedic moments scattered about for good measure that kids will be sure to enjoy more so than it is a thinly disguised cautionary tale.

In order to differentiate itself from a market full of other talking animal CG pieces, Koala Kid makes use of a unique color pallet that is difficult to define though unmistakable just the same (even the DVD box art manages to capture it).

Pacing is quick and efficient and the script offers up some decent humor that is, and this is extremely rare in its own right, actually enhanced by some of the onscreen humor (one of my favorite moments in the film comes when the characters crash their circus wagon into a ravine and the monkey, Higgins, still battered from the resulting impact, manages to snap a photo of Johnny for publicity purposes).

Adding to the big budget feel of the piece, there is a well presented musical number in the middle of the film set to a (well done) remake of the staple Australian anthem Down Under from the Men at Work.

Sure, fastidious CG aficionados accustomed to the type of attention to detail that has made Pixar films so endearing may question little nuances like why can all of the animals talk except for the monkey (which, I suppose could arguably be considered the most intelligent of the animal species chosen here), or why the English vocal directors seemed to go the extra mile to avoid casting anyone with an authentic Australian accent (perhaps the film’s meager budget couldn’t secure the likes of Hugh Jackman or Nicole Kidman). Overall though, these are minor nuances that detract little from the viewing experience.

In conclusion Koala Kid represents a nice change of pace in the generally abysmal arena that is the direct-to-dvd CG animated feature film. The fact that 20th Century Fox, the company now responsible for domestic distribution or all of Blue Sky and DreamWorks’ CG DVDs/ blu-Rays, opted to distribute this one says a lot about their own belief in the project. It isn’t as easy to track down as some of the more popular titles released on the label but those who do locate it won’t be disappointed by adding it to their CG collection.

Cute concept, but it could have been better.

My main issue with it was the video playback quality. It froze multiple times and needed to be restarted. To be fair, it happens all the time with Amazon Prime videos, so it was not just this particular film.

A little boring, but clean

Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2013

This movie is clean for the most part. Easy on the children's eyes. However, it just isn't that entertaining. So, if you are ok with not alot of humor, then go for it.

weniger wild und lustig als gedacht

Reviewed in Germany on September 11, 2018

Verified Purchase

Der gewitzte Koala Johnny ist ein Außenseiter! Als einziger weißer Koala seines Stammes wird er von seinen grauen Artgenossen gehänselt und ausgestoßen. Erst als er seiner Heimat den Rücken kehrt und sich einem Wanderzirkus anschließt, erkennt der kleine Koala den Wert seiner außergewöhnlichen Farbe...

Man erlebt hier eine schöne Geschichte eines Albinos, die man klar in die Schiene Mobbing, Ausgrenzung und Akzeptanz stecken kann. Er zeigt in seiner Botschaft das jeder so gut ist wie er ist und in jedem etwas steckt.

Daher ein typischer Familienfilm mit Unterhaltungswert. Er ist jedoch nicht ein lustiger und farbenfroher Film, wie man sich vielleicht denken mag... wenig Witz, weniger wild... dafür schon teilweise sehr traurig und das legt sich natürlich auf die Stimmung des Zuschauers nieder... der Filmt wirkt daher etwas langwährig... dennoch würde ich den Film allen Familien empfehlen mit kleinen Kindern, die werden die Charaktere lieben und auch die Story!
