Agent F.O.X. (2014) User Reviews

Strickly for the Paw Patrol and Peppa Pig set

[brelanda · 3/10 · 22 August 2022]

Painfully slow and simple.

OK for the under 12 crowd, but for the rest of us it's painful to watch .

Story to contrived for the audience it is aimed to entertain of instruct.

Voice acting exaggerated to the max.

Art simplified and unimaginative.

Watch if you want an ironic laugh

Feels like tripping on drugs when you watch it. The characters jerk across the screen like ADHD ridden looney tunes. The character designs are also grotesque, they look like they got ripped straight from a Tim Burton film - which would work if they were in one, but they aren't. It's overly cheerful and obnoxious. There should be a limit of silliness in kids movies. Most kids aren't entertained by jingling keys, but this is what the entire movie felt like. Obnoxious, shrill and full of goofy characters, one of which is a bumbling dumbass who gets knocked out while attempting parkour. Not recommended.

This is a very average addition to the genre. My daughter did love this film but it falls short of its potentia

Agent F. O. X. (2014) is a movie my daughter and I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a fox sent on mission to infiltrate a rabbit community and find an artifact owned by the mayor of the bunnies, steal it and bring it back to his superiors.

This movie is directed by Ge Shuiying in his directorial debut and contains the voices of Shannon Settlemyre (Bold Eagles), Matthew Warzel (The Nice Guys), Steve Vernon (The Highwaymen), Keenan Cromshaw (Gamera the Brave) and Ashley Bril (Raging Angels).

The animation in this is excellent and very well done. The storyline is a bit cliché and nothing special and the film focuses on the characters and their cool animation and lacks a deep plot/premise. They could have been more creative with how everything unfolds. The Fox was fun and universe definitely had potential. The rabbit village and characters were entertaining, though the fast one was a bit annoying.

Overall this is a very average addition to the genre. My daughter did love this film but it falls short of its potential. I would score this a 4/10 and recommend seeing it once.

Painful to watch

[encyblake · 1/10 · 27 September 2015]

I was looking around on Netflix for random movies to watch to keep the kid I was babysitting occupied and found this movie. It was PAINFUL to watch it all the way through. It talks down to its audience MORE than any other children's move I have EVER SEEN. The voices of the charters are annoying and the dialogue is horribly unintelligent. Oh my gosh this movie is like dangling keys in front of a child's face. If you are thinking about watching this with your kids Don't there are plenty of other better children's movies that won't burn your ears out. Just go watch a good children's movie like inside out or toy story. Heck I enjoyed third generation my little pony more than this move.

Sucks

I don't know what to do with the kids movie but I don't

Belongs In The Dumpster

This movie is so bad, I couldn't even finish it. The animation is terrible and the voice acting isn't good either.

If you cherish your IQ points, steer clear.

[archerslambam · 14 November 2020]

So, the reviews here have pointed out the horrid animation and the horrid voice acting. My main issue is that every single character in this movie, EVERY SINGLE ONE, is a complete and utter moron. For example, the movie starts with our lead character being accepted into this town of rabbits that think he's a long-tailed rabbit. Everyone thinks he is a long-tailed rabbit! And then there's the reason why he's in this town in the first place, to find a McGuffin called the "Guardian Amulet."

It's actually a scroll. They called a scroll an amulet.

I can't explain this.

Torture.

[masoncheek · 1/10 · 25 May 2020]

Each second I sat through this movie made me feel sick. Do not watch this trash fire, I'd rather have intense diarheea than ever watch this again.

bad

Sucks

[jamesgrove-73570 · 1/10 · 2 April 2020]

Vertical and animation is a very good game to play with

Just hop on to the next animated movie...

[paul_haakonsen · 3/10 · 17 January 2022]

Well, when I sat down to watch the 2014 animated movie "Agent F. O. X." (aka "Tu zi zhon de huo hu li") together with my 11 year old son, I didn't know that this was actually a Chinese animated movie dubbed into English. So that was somewhat of a surprise.

I have to say that "Agent F. O. X." wasn't a great experience, neither in terms of storyline, entertainment or animation.

The storyline told in this animated movie didn't even bring much of any enjoyment to me, and my son wasn't particularly impressed either. He even commented on the mouths of the rabbits and the fox wasn't synchronized to the voices he heard. Yeah, the dubbing was that dubious.

Visually then "Agent F. O. X." felt like it was a half-finished movie. The CGI felt like it was not properly rendered, often feeling like they were lacking details and textures, and that made for a poor visual experience, which certainly took away from the overall feel of the movie. Sure, the characters were rendered nice enough and had good details, but the backgrounds and scenery around the characters was just not really that good.

The English voice acting dub work wasn't really impressive, and as if having inferior CGI and wasn't bad enough, then a subpar voice acting wasn't really adding to lift the movie. And I doubt that even watching the original Chinese version would make the movie much more enjoyable, because the texture-less CGI was just not pleasant on the eyes.

My rating of "Agent F. O. X." lands on a three out of ten stars.

Found it very enjoyable.

Watched an English dubbed version on VUDU (the English voice actors were listed at about a minute before the end). Would prefer to watch a subtitled version but this seems to be what's available. Anyway, some of the qualities that annoyed others struck this viewer as charming, and the focus on friendship, law and fairness felt right too. A fun show.

Actually kind of good

[paigeabagayleeden · 7/10 · 28 March 2020]

I know that a LOT of people hate this movie, but I just saw it and want to say that I thought it was pretty good. Characters: Great. They have their own flaws and personalities. The main character is clumsy and kind of a dork, which you wouldn't really expect but it works! The animation and voice acting were average. Nothing special, really. Some of the actors seemed like they were going to DIE of boredom, but that's it. But the real thing keeping me from giving this a higher rating is the logic of what goes on in this movie. Lots of stuff just doesn't make sense! The houses wouldn't be able to support themselves with these wonky designs. Why do some of these characters just hate each other? No explanation! I was nitpicking this movie A LOT, which made it a lot less fun. In conclusion, this is a pretty good movie. The team who made this obviously did so on a low budget, and what they made of it is a pretty funny movie!

Awful

[campbellmatt · 30 May 2020]

I wish I could give this movie negative stars. Animation was awful. Story was weird. Even my kids gave up and didn't want to continue to watch the movie.

As a lover of animation, this hits some of the right spots.

[capzones · 8/10 · 21 June 2016]

When I watched this, I enjoyed it. You start off with a cute fox, who is setup quite well, and you learn more about him as the time passes. You find out just how lonely he truly is, so when a family finally accepts him, he falls in love with them all. It doesn't go the route of what you expect. In fact, it quite often gives even the most avid movie watcher a surprise! In many parts you think "oh great this is going to happen.. but then it doesn't! A twist ending that will leave you wondering, as well as the narration at the start and end.

This was quite surprising. Enjoyed it more then I expected too. If you are a furry, enjoy cute things, want a nice movie to watch with your family or looking for story, the deep story, this is a great movie to watch. 8/10

This is NOT a "StonerVision" production.

[Angry_Santa · 7/10 · 4 November 2021]

I don't know what's worse - adults trying to watch cartoons which are obviously aimed at young (3-6yo) children, or them coming here to whinge that it wasn't up to the standards of The Quiet Don.

Guys, if you're wanting to watch something whilst baked, hunt down any of the US-made movies of the past decade - they're pathetic enough to entertain the three brain cells you still have functioning. DON'T go looking for a kids' cartoon only to complain about it.

This is a reasonable (though admittedly far from amazing) effort which WILL keep the youngsters entertained, with likely several requests following for a re-watch. A solid 7/10.

Might've worked as a short Sat. morning cartoon instead of 87 min.

[El Cine · 16 February 2020]

Saturday morning cartoons were typically junk food. But a little is okay. For some kids, those cartoons were a fun way to kick off the weekend after a week of school.

Agent Fox reminds me of them. The acting and humor are broad. In fact, none of its elements--city setting, plot, animation, etc.--are outstanding in any way. They could perhaps have been amusing enough for a series of 30 min. TV episodes. So could the premise of a dishonest fox "agent" going undercover in a community of peaceful rabbits. But a movie, almost 90 minutes long? This isn't nearly good enough for that.

Although some parents will consider it to be a waste of time, many kids will get bored before the 87 minute mark anyway.

See if you can count the number of times they recycle the footage of the fox starting up his computer.

Gets another demerit for the way the characters go "Huh?...Huh?" all the time. Very weird dialogue tic. The fox, for instance, sneaks through a house to burgle it, going "Huh?" at every step. Later he burgles Town Hall; same thing.

Not bad as people are saying.

[opalpika1328 · 10/10 · 4 July 2022]

Actually was a good movie. Seen it on VUDU and enjoyed it. It all starts with a fox who is supposed to be a spy to infiltrate a bunny village for an artifact. But instead of doing a bad deed for a commander, the fox, now known as "Longtail", does things that are good for the bunny village and even rescued some of the villagers and they all liked the inventions he has made for them. Longtail befriends the rabbits and even has a assistant inventor in a spider called Professor Web. Longtail doesn't want to be bad anymore and surprisingly, Professor Web and the bunny villagers accept them. Definitely surprising that it didn't have the cliche "You were formerly a bad guy/working for a bad guy and now we are exiling you from the village" trope that you sometimes would see on animated series and movies that have protagonists who have bad pasts, and I am glad that it didn't go that way. I mean at first you had Buggy (a chubby rabbit villager) have suspicions in Longtail but after he himself was rescued, he seen Longtail as good and like the other villagers, accepted him. So yeah a lot of people didn't really like this movie but I enjoyed it, was really cute and enjoyable.
