Summary: Gordy, the talking pig who made it big!
Review: A brilliant video which kept me entertained all of the way through. The cast were very talented especially Kristy Young, who for a 12 year old has real talent.
Buy it, you won't be disappointed!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: He's no 'Babe'
Review: Gordy (voiced by Justin Garms) is a live-action movie about talking animals - with its emphasis on porkers - who must endure the cruel whims of man. When Gordy is stolen by an aspiring country singer named Jinnie Sue MaCallister (KristyYoung), his life changes for the better; that is, if you'd rather go to beer-swilling hoedown yodeling concerts than be turned into a BLT. Tough call.

Summary: Gordy: the little pig who tugged at our hearts.
Review: Gordy is the cuttest movie I have ever seen. Even though this pig movie was out done my the other hyped pig movie, it is by far the best one and it makes you really think about real life issues. Kristy Young (as Jinnie Sue) does a superior job. This teenager MUST GET A RECORD DEAL. I recommend this movie for all ages.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Branson Slop
Review: Having been subjected to multiple viewings of Gordy during rainy days at a beach vacation, I now consider myself an expert on the movie. The main problem with the movie is the human acting, which is abysmal. Even the relatively highly touted Kristy Young seems to have serious problems with remembering and delivering her lines. The logic of talking animal movies is always suspect, but in this case there are serious problems. Why, for example, does a patriarch name the titular piglet to administer a company until the grandson reaches the age of majority? Even in pig years Gordy is a child too! The motivation of the movie seems not to be to discourage eating pigs but to promote the values embodied in the Branson brand of country music - relatively bland and harmless, to be sure, but not too well thought out. What do you do with the farm when the animals reproduce out of control? So while the movie doesn't make too much sense, and the actors don't help convince you further, there is some amusement for children that are too young to think this through. My children were delighted by the mild dramatic tension and funny animal sounds and voices. I think this means that producers have free rein to create similar low-budget talking animal vehicles and they will be guaranteed an income, certainly from the video sales. Although thankfully there isn't a Gordy II!

Summary: Gordy ripped off Sugar Bunny!!!
Review: I have a pig at home named Sugar Bunny. He walks and talks and has his own buisness. He walks around in a suit all day giving stock quotes. I want some money from this movie! GIVE ME MONEY!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: this movie is so much better than Babe!
Review: I haven't seen this movie in several years, but I remember it as being touching, beautiful, and full of my favorite kind of music, country! I love Doug Stone's character, and all the others, but if that's his real daughter singing, she should have a radio career of her own! Stone's singing is phenominal, as usual, and the acting by the two children and Gordy is equally cute and enjoyable. I hate to disappoint all the Babe fans out there, but Gordy beats this movie ten times over!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A feel good movie about a talking pig
Review: I recommend this movie for all ages- This movie is a feel good movie. It will make you never want to eat BBQ ever again - Doug Stone's daughter in the movie - newcomer Kristy Young- was a jewel - my two kids made me buy the soundtrack just because they wanted to hear her sing. She was great.To me she was even better than that LeAnn Rimes girl. This little girl has talent.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: "Gordy" is a feel-good film for all ages!
Review: I saw "Gordy" about a couple of days ago on TV, and it was a really, really great film for the whole family! And I thought that it was a little bit better than "Babe", but "Gordy" does not make "Babe" a bad film, because it isn't. "Gordy" calls the attention to a little pig named Gordy who discovers that his family is missing and sets out to find them. In the process, Gordy meets some amazing, one-of-a-kind people along the way, including a country singer and his daughter (brilliantly played by both Doug Stone and Kristy Young). As fate would have it, Gordy becomes a worldwide sensation after becoming friends with a little boy he saved from being drowned. To me, I think that "Gordy" is just one of the best family films that Walt Disney Pictures have made since they did "The Lion King" and "The Rocketeer". "Gordy" has laughs, a great story, plenty of heart, and great music sung by Doug Stone and other talented artists. "Gordy" is, without a doubt, the BEST Disney film that I have watched in my life! A great addition to any video/DVD collection!
