Based on the book by Roald Dahl.
Originally released as a motion picture in 2016.
Bonus extra: Gobblefunk: the wonderful words of the BFG; Melissa Mathison: a tribute.
Mark Rylance, Ruby Barnhill, Penelope Wilton, Jemaine Clement, Rebecca Hall, Rafe Spall, Bill Hader, Olafur Darri Olafsson, Adam Godley, Michael Adamthwaite.
It tells the imaginative story of a young girl and the Giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. The BFG, while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part.
DVD, NTSC, region 1, widescreen (2.39:1) presentation; Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital 2.0.
Contents: BFG.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Delightful, NOT just for kids submitted by LVDS on June 29, 2017, 9:53am Funny, heart-warming....very creative fantasy by Dahl. Superb animation mixed with real actors.
This is one of the greatest movies we've seen in a while. After so much violence & movies about dysfunctional relationships...this made for a refreshing eve!!

Cute submitted by hollieesper121573 on July 19, 2017, 8:48pm animation is great and fun for all

Very cute submitted by ferielp on August 23, 2017, 9:50am This tugged at my heart-strings more than the book. It's a powerful lesson on how we should treat each other, and really, adults need reminding of that more than kids do.

BFG submitted by SBNB on June 18, 2018, 2:08pm I know a lot of people loved this movie, but I thought it was just ok. Not something I would watch again voluntarily.

BFG submitted by Theaco on June 20, 2018, 2:18pm I saw the movie and now i really want to read the book
i really liked it!

Not what I expected submitted by cbrewster on July 5, 2018, 7:43pm I found it a little odd, but overall is was good. It is definitely is based on a book by Roald Dahl.

Good submitted by anacoluthon on August 1, 2018, 8:17pm A cute movie, but it doesn't really hold up to the charm of Roald Dahl's book. Perhaps if it had been 2D animated instead...

great submitted by tingzhaowb on June 16, 2019, 8:34pm a great book
