Jake and Jasper: A Ferret Tale (2011)
Great short family film!
This is such a cute short! Falcor the ferret is adorable, and for ferret lovers, it's great to have a movie that is centred around a ferret. Alison Parker did a great job with this movie. I only wish this wasn't a "short" and was a full-length! It's a very heartwarming story, and I'm happy it shows ferrets in their true light. Some people have said it isn't realistic, well, I think it's because it's a short, not a feature-length, so it doesn't have time to dive deep into the history or have multi-dimensional characters. Like the description says, it's about a boy trying to deal with the death of his mother, and Ms. Parker manages to get the emotion of the loss of a loved one across, while keeping the story light enough for a short film. If you like ferrets, or you have kids who like animals, get this movie, you and the kids will enjoy watching Falcor's (Jasper) tricks and silly antics that ferrets are known for.
