    A Goofy Movie


    "Watch carefully now. You gotta stay loose, relaxed. Keep your feet apart. Now, ten o'clock, two o'clock, quarter to three, tour jeté, twist, pas de deux, I'm a little teapot, then the windup... and let 'er fly! The Perfect Cast."

    Max Goof (Marsden) is sick of being the school joke.  On the last day of the year, he has a plan to get noticed and ask out the girl of his dreams, Roxanne (Martin).  But the stunt gets him in trouble and causes Principal Mazur (Shawn) to contact his father Goofy (Farmer).  Concerned about Max's behavior, Goofy decides to plan a father-son fishing trip, using the same route he used to take with his father.  However, the trip means Max will miss a date with Roxanne.  So he lies and claims they are going to see Powerline (Campbell) concert.

    They hit the open road and begin clashing.  Can they survive the togetherness or will the road bring them together?


    In 1932, Walt Disney added the character of Goofy.  At first he appeared with Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, but later received his own shorts.  In the 1940s he was the star of the "How to" shorts.  In the 1990s, when Disney turned their movies and beloved characters into TV shows, Disney gave Goofy a TV show Goof Troop.  In Goof Troop, they gave Goofy a son, named Max, and placed him next door to Pete, another Disney regular.

    A few years after the show was cancelled, Disney made the film, making Max a high school student and removing a few of the characters from Goof Troop.  They decided to make the film a musical with a bunch of catchy tunes: "After Today", "Nobody Else But You", "Eye to Eye", etc.  It is a fun film.  A few years later they made a sequel An Extremely Goofy Movie, that sends Goofy and Max to college... but it isn't as good as this.

    The DVD of the film includes a featurette about Goofy's rise to fame... with the announcer from the "How to" shorts narrating Goofy's life, and different Goofy cartoons.
