The Missing Lynx

This is a good animation movie. The characters are well done, the animation works fine and is also well illuminated. The humans characters design are similar to others we had seen in other movies, but well animated. Lot of action, and nice scenes. In the original version (Spanish) the jokes were OK, not the usual easy humor for kids, so isn't boring for adults. And the most important thing is the Story. Remember you about the imprisioned animals (like in Madagascar) and presents you a wild cat, the Spanish Lynx: Pardel or Iberian Lynx, which is a endangered animal.

For all these reasons I will recommend to everyone this movie, not a must see but a nice animated Story to watch with the kids or with everyone who loves animals.

Although I'm not sure if this will have any international distribution, I think it's a quite decent production considering the low budget, specially compared with Pixar and Disney releases.

The story is about a bunch of animals from Doñana National Park in Spain, trying to save other animals kidnapped by the bad guys. There is nothing innovative in the story but it works. The only thing that I don't like is that some situations happen too fast for kids to catch them.

There some winks to nature protection and also to scape movies that I liked.

I hope that next time, under Antonio Banderas protection, this team will be able to compete American movies. We'll see...

This has to be the cutest, funniest movie I've seen in a long time. While the plot itself isn't innovative, the movie is refreshing, witty, and hilarious. There wasn't a boring moment in it. The characters and their interactions are well written and very entertaining. The animation is also great. And of course there's the underlying message about endangered animals, which is important.

Over all, this movie is funny and adorable and I enjoyed it very much. I'm sure it would entertain both children and adults. Seeing how most of the stuff that passes for "comedy" these days doesn't even make me smile, I started to think I might have lost my sense of humor. But this one made me laugh out loud.

Thank you, makers of this lovely little gem. I had to post a review to give this low budget film the thumbs up it deserves. Well done!

I tried a few of the animated films and I just wasn't feeling any of them.

They were boring with stiff animation.

Ripping off the biblical story of Noah and the Ark, "The Missing Lynx" tells the tale of a group of animals trying to outwit a rich man named Noah and the hunter he hires to capture them and put them on a huge ship to save their species from extinction. Essentially, this was lacking on virtually every front. The animation of the characters was of poor quality by today's standards, the story itself failed to hold either my attention or my 6 year old daughter's (she was sound asleep long before it was over and I was asleep on and off throughout) and it was almost completely lacking in what I would think is essential in any children's movie - charm. The characters aren't at all memorable, and also unlike virtually every other children's movie, there are absolutely no memorable musical pieces. It doesn't come close to rivalling any of the animated features that have become so common in recent years.
