MCT:September 10, 2008Has some pretty funny moments but it is very cheaply made and I just can't get over that the creators of this movie didn't realize that male cows don't have utters!
-
MCT:August 30, 2008My problem with this film is mainly anatomical. Someone needs to tell the animators, who obviously were not raised on a farm, that BULLS DO NOT HAVE UDDERS!

MCT:August 28, 2008it was cute but i am not very happy with some of the newer cartoon movies they are just like the older ones like cinderella or dumbo even

MCT:July 13, 2008Aargh! I haven't even seen this movie, and it annoys the living hell out of me! Never mind that the male of the species is called a bull, and not a cow. That can be forgiven, as the word "cow" has evolved into something of a unisex term. (John Wayne, after all, was a cowboy, not a bullboy.) What really, really irks me, however, is the portrayal of the males with udders! Yes, the males - that is, the bulls - have frigging udders! That's a biological absurdity that can't be excused simply because this is a children's animated movie. I mean, did no one catch this? From the very beginning to the very end of the making of this film, did not even one person ever raise their hand and point out the fact that bulls don't give milk?! I invite anybody involved with the making of this film to visit a farm and try to milk a bull, and see what happens.

This animated movie was just okay. I kind of ruined it by watching the tv show and previews first. I think some of the shows on tv were better and funnier than actual movie. Not crazy about the animation either.

This story takes place in a country farm. Otis the bull (or gender confused cow) is the care free son of Ben, the leader of the Barnyard. Otis is young an energetic, he likes to have fun and has little ambitions. Ben hopes that one day Otis will take his place as the leader of the barn, but worries that he may not be capable of this. After Ben is killed by a pack of coyotes, the reluctant Otis now must take over the barn and lead the other animals and protect them should the evil coyotes return. But unfortunately, the film drags a little to get to its point. It is very padded with the party sequences in the barn, and the likes of the trailer's key "boy tipping" sequence. So when actual plot development takes place, it is offset by something silly that takes over and stays going for a lengthy amount of time. This movie was being shown for free at the theater here, so I took a couple of neightbor kids to see it, and during the movie another little boy maybe 7 or 8 started crying when the coyotes killed Ben. Alot of the people in the theater were scared including adults at some of the scenes.

MCT:June 1, 2008Barnyard seems like it might be fun. Cows acting like humans? Get out! That's hilarious! But really, it's not. It's a one-note premise that falls flat after about 10 minutes.

MCT:May 4, 2008very good movie good story great for all ages very funny makes you think about them farm animals and get over the utters thing its a cartoon dont take things that serious

It is a very fun filled and exciting children's movies, well, anyways, I don't know about y'all, but, all I can say is: IT'S A FUN FILLED ADVENTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I still can't get over the fact of a MALE COW WITH UDDERS. The only part I really liked was when the dog couldn't convince the others that he can't resist playing fetch. Shitty computer animated movie. I hated the CGI in this.
-
MCT:April 12, 2008Male cows are called bulls for a reason... they don't have utters!! The creators should have done some research before animatiing the main character. He is a bull who apparently had a sex change.

MCT:March 26, 2008This is the funniest cartoon movie I have ever since, since Shrek. It's adventerous, entertaining and leaves you talking about it for days after...

So many things wrong with this movie. It's a good thing I saw it on the movie channel before renting or buying it.

This film isn't really original at all. First off the animals act like humans when no actual humans are around (Toy Story) a father dies and the son feels guilty about it, (Lion King) and the animals are perverted caricatures of the characters in Garfield and Friends. This movie did hold it's own plot but I hope isney comes back and kicks Nickelodeon's big rosy perverted butt.

This was really enjoyable. I laughed out loud quite a bit and the characters voices were all well chosen. Kevin James was perfect as the party cow and his father in charge of all of the animals on the farm was voiced by Sam Elliott and was not only great but we get to hear Sam sing "I Won't Back Down" as he ponders taking on some menacing coyotes out to harm his barnyard peeps. One note on that - the coyotes may be frightening at times to the pre-school set; but, for grade-school children and up this animated film can be enjoyed by the whole family.
I DO HAVE A QUESTION THOUGH: WHY did the boy cows have udders? I mean boy cows don't REALLY have udders do they? And ARE there boy cows? Aren't boy cows actually bulls? Don't bulls have horns or not all of them? I mean I really thought bulls were boy cows!! This city girl wants to know. I mean I understand this is just a cartoon - I mean it's not like cows play guitar and sing 80 rock tunes either - BUT - I just don't understand a boy cow (if there is such a thing) having udders. I mean surely this was discussed amongst the animators...so maybe boy cows DO have udders....that's kind of ...ewkie though. -

A typical kids cartoon with good animals, bad coyotes and a dumb farmer. The male cows with udders is just so wrong...

MCT:March 7, 2008
This is a funny movie that is about to become a TV series which I think may be more funny than the movie.

It wasn't funny, it wasn't a good movie and it's stupid!
It's more for kids. Kids are learning all the time and this teaches them that they're male and female cows! It would have made so much more sence for them to be bulls with the running and the fighting and stuffposted 233 days ago -
it was quite a short story but I loved the animals and the movie was quite nice well kids would love it and when I watched it last year I thought it was quite good well I enjoyed it anyway.

i am so dam annoyed with everybody complaining about the bulls have udders thing i mean for one ther are actual bulls in the movie with horns and theyve only got the male cows with udders in it for fun and so they can be called cows and not bulls and not udders and second its just a film for cryin out loud its not meant to be accurate because youre not going to find farm animals walking on twol legs talking stealing cars or playing golf so i think people should just watch the film and enjoy the film instead of making stupid comments without giving it a try
