One of my all time favorites.

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

I don't get why so many people do not like this movie. I am 29 years old and just rewatched it last night with a friend for the first time since it came out in 1995 and we both loved it.The story of someone trying to save their family and make friends at the same time is always touching. So what if its a talking pig who befriends two young children and takes the nation by storm after saving one of the kid's lives? I found the ending to be extremely touching when Gordy finds his family and the children's parents get married. Doug Stone was fantastic as the father and I still love his singing to this day.Don't watch this movie expecting Aladdin or Beauty and the Beast. Watch it expecting to be entertained and see a family friendly film and you will enjoy it.

so,this is a really stupid movie with a stupid plot.i'm not going to waste my time telling you what the plot is.The acting sucks the talking pig effects suck(basically they gave him a bit of chewing gum)and it is just a stupid stupid movie that completely rips off the Bebe story,seriously you'd think it was made by asylum.(oh by the way that girls grin is kinda creepy)but thats not the worst of it.....it got a rap music video!0_0WTF!?aside from that i have nothing else to say but this review has to be at least 10 lines long so i might as while say this.Has anybody seen my keys,i think i left them at school but i cant help feeling that ,oh wait thats 10 lines so anyway the movie's stupid and that's pretty much it

Gordy is a truly terrible and pathetic movie, and what's unique is that it was released right before Babe. You'd think that would've caused people to confuse the two; yet Babe went on to be a huge hit and get a Best Picture nomination. That really does speak volumes about the quality of Babe.Gordy is just terrible on every level, with a story that is badly put together. Gordy's a talking pig looking for his family. He first gets discovered by a little country girl who sings about "checking on your butt" (yes, it's true).One day they're at some event for a rich family. The rich little boy can't swim, but instead of being scared of the water, as would be normal, he goes right up to the pool and sits on the diving board! And then, as he's getting up, he's actually surprised that he falls in. Turns out the country girl can't swim either. But wouldn't ya know it, the pig can! So Gordy rescues the little rich boy, and now becomes the world's richest pig.Gordy explains that all animals can really talk, but only simple folks can understand them. This includes innocent children and idiot adults, which becomes an ongoing gag (Cousin Jake is a moron and when the pig talks to him, he can understand! Ho ho!) Eventually Bill Clinton calls (the voice of a bad Clinton imitator) and he can understand Gordy also. Ho ho! (I wonder if they'd have done this same gag if Bush had been president at the time, or would it have been too obvious a joke?).Although this is a silly premise, at least it's something to go on, but the movie doesn't know how to create a plot from it, so it goes in various directions. We have clichés like the evil boyfriend who wants to marry the rich boy's mother for her money. We have a plot line where Gordy and the rich boy run away, shaking off the evil boyfriend's goons, but it only lasts 20 minutes. Even this can't be stretched out to 90 minutes, so we have pointless scenes that're dragged out for no real reason, such as the entire "butt-check" song, and a depressing sequence where Gordy's family is put in some cruel cock-fight competition.Gordy's conversations with the rich boy feel very stilted. Of course this is because the kid, not a great actor to begin with, was just talking to a pig on set all day, and the voice for Gordy added later does not seem to actually be talking off of him. The fact that the pig doesn't look like its actually talking does not help.So Gordy is...bad. Compared to Babe, which was delightful and had a serious story, Gordy is excrement which fails as entertainment.

Gordy was a fantastic movie when i watched it. I thought that babe was better. This movie was a similar type to Babe, but this one was a Disney movie as Babe was Universal. Gordy is a Cowboy movie style. i give this movie 10 out of 10.
