    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The village where Nina and Ferdinand live in is Ronda in the south of Spain. This village is known for having the oldest bullring in the world, built in 1785.
    • Goofs
      Ferdinand is given his name from birth, when he is being raised at the bull camp. He then runs away and is adopted by a new family, but how does this new family know that is name is Ferdinand? He was not wearing any identification tags, and he clearly couldn't speak to the humans to tell them this. But given that the bulls never spoke human in the first place, all their English lines are translated, Ferdinand is just the name given in translation.
    • Quotes

      Una: I'm Una...

      Dos: I'm Dos...

      Cuatro: And I'm Cuatro.

      Ferdinand: What happened to Tres?

      Una: [the hedgehogs look solemn and cross themselves] We do not speak of Tres.

    • Crazy credits
      In a brief mid-credits scene, the hedgehogs are confronted by Tres who is revealed to have been alive the whole time.
    • Alternate versions
      The UK version is cut for a U certificate, removing a use of "bloody", several scenes of characters being electrocuted, a sequence where Ferdinand and Valiente must evade blades in a meat processing plant, and Ferdinand being slashed during the climax.

    One of the bests
    I don't understand why the rating is this low here. It was one of the best animation movies I have seen. It has several layers to it. Surface layer is of course going against violence and advocating peaceful life and behavior. But it can have several other layers; like how the society forces boys to define themselves as "masculine" based on the norms of the society. Masculinity is more of a sociological construct rather than an eternal unchanging truth. Some people here have said that this movie is not pro fighters. I totally think the opposite. It is advocating a new definition for fighting. Rather than violence, fighting according to Ferdinand is patience and perseverance.

    All in all, I loved this movie and totally recommend it.
