Nessie & Me (2016) User Reviews

Just terrible

[seymourpantaloons · 2/10 · 17 April 2021]

Very awkward effects, angles, acting, and dialogue. Why is this on amazon prime? I understand that they're low on content, but don't just pad it with this garbage.

I haven't seen the whole movie. I watched maybe the first 15 minutes with my family, but it was so thoroughly embarrassing to watch that I left.

Do not watch this movie. There is nothing worthwhile here. It feels cheap and has nothing to say. Just an awful movie.

So bad it's good?

Idk where to start, the acting was pretty bad and the movie felt like a poorly shot student film. A couple of the actresses looked as if they'd be more comfortable acting on The Hub than in this children's movie? Maybe worth watching for a laugh but don't take it seriously.

So, so bad.

Two college freshman make a movie over spring break with a budget of $150. This is that movie. It's so awful the entire time but the 30 of the movie has some great unintentional laughs. We watched it from the library so it was free. Please do not waste time, money, or data on this movie.

If you already did, laugh with me as I highlight some of the most ridiculous parts.

The kid ends up getting an "iPhone 8 with all the apps" which his father tells him he got because his mom gave up some of her "mad money." Yet he can't touch his father's camera until the father is ready to die.... And wasn't the beginning of the movie trying to point out that kids on their phones are missing everything around them?

Also, why does the kid's brother look like Charlie from Willy Wonka?

And then the rich guy has an old flip phone but the kid has an iPhone 8! Haha!!

The money that he is using to pay bills is clearly one sided. The bottom of the money is bright white and they don't even try to hide it.

I loved when the guys were making a commercial and gave the payphone number as the one to call. They both had cell phones but if you want to book a boat tour, call the random payphone. Maybe it had to do with the bad signal on that side of the lake???

Quote from rich guy, " I'm like sandwhich meat. Always ready."

The loan shark looks like a leprechaun in a business suit.

There are so many inappropriate moments with the women in this movie. Why so much cleavage and why are we all watching the woman walk away. It kind of looked like the doofy guy on the boat was pitching a tent as he sat there after watching her walk away... if you know what I mean.

Overall, the kids were much better actors than the adults.

I wanted to stop it several times but my kids wanted to finish it. It wasn't as bad and inappropriate as The Queens Corgis but it takes a solid second place. It seems like any time you see a kids movie that is not rated, you're taking a gamble, and will most likely end up on the losing side of a bad movie.

Pass

I've never written a review for a movie, but I felt I needed to spare people from the pain of this movie. We also got this from the library. It's really bad. The acting is awful. The "nessie" storyline isnt really the main focus. There's just one odd scene after another. A guy on the golf course was hitting people in the head with golfballs for fun. Then a woman walks up to him very inappropriately dressed for a kids movie. The dynamic between the male and females throughout the movie isn't great. The women are scantily dressed and the men make inappropriate remarks and jestures, constantly objectifying them. There is a scene when the old captian tells the boy not to tell his parents about their relationship. What kind of messages are they trying to send in this "G" rated film. I could go on and on, but it's not worth your time and neither is this movie. The movie case said "The most entertaing movie of the year!" Ha...in what universe? Spare yourself agony. It's completely lacking in good quality content, values and storyline.

Since when was Nessie American?

My 4 year old picked this at the library, I have to be honest I've not sat down and watched it all the way through, and neither has he but what I have seen has been pure utter guff! First off as far as I can tell there is absolutely no reference to Scotland, are you just claiming Nessie as yours now America?! In the words of William Wallace " Bolt ya mad rockets!"

Good God

My four year old wanted to see this film. Read the other reviews. They are 100% accurate. There's no point me writing the same. As an adult u may find this amusing if you're drunk. But it's not for children.

dont waste your time

[luise_middleton · 1/10 · 9 October 2021]

Being Scottish i feel they are copyrighting Nessie. It is not set in Scotland or has anything really to do with Nessie. So when choosing the movie with my kids thinking it will be Scottish and teach us about the real history of the Loch Ness Monster the one and only Nessie i was deeply dissapointed.

Acting is terrible and story line drags on. Its not really fun for kids as is boring as heck! Not sure why they dress the lady with the big boobs n tight dresses and lots of skin showing feels totally out of place in the movie and the sexuality of her appearance is not required.

I would have turned it off but kids wouldn't be allowed to start a new movie as it was getting late so we suffered through it. Prime i am disappointed i have wasted minutes of my life watching this nonsense.

Pointless!! waste of time!!

[wahidmaryam · 1/10 · 23 March 2021]

I dont know where to start..was this really a 7+ movie? I had to justify the women's skimpy outfits to my 5 and 7 year olds. And the way the boys were hitting in the girls i mean who shows that stuff in a kids movie!! Honestly it was sick!!

So bad it's good

[everyeats · 1/10 · 25 February 2020]

This is the literally the worst movie I've ever seen and I love it. Throwing the phone at the boat and it turns into gold... cringe genius. My dad rented this out of a cheap Walgreens redbox and I laughed my butt off the whole time because it's so bad. Good job on making the worst movie to ever exist 👍🏻

Awful! It could have been so good!

[chirojk-57168 · 1/10 · 27 June 2021]

Quite poorly acted and unfortunately the women in the movie were portrayed quite ridiculously. Not appropriate or interesting for children...or adults for that matter.

I don't know why but I liked it

[sarejina · 7/10 · 1 April 2021]

Nessie really didn't have anything to do with the movie, it was kind of like two movies in one, to be honest. I thought the guy who played Larry did a decent job acting as did some of the kids. It's odd that someone wrote a review complaining that America stole the Loch Ness monster when in the film it mentions the Loch Ness monster as a different animal. Part of the fun for me watching this was trying to figure out why I was still watching it and hoping that at some point the story line would all come together...neither of those things happened. I have loved movies my entire life, half a century now, and some times you just need to watch a ridiculous movie when you have had a bad day. Also, never trust a review! Lol.

I mean.... It's.... Ya

My kid liked it. Cute story. Worm girl was hot. People need chill with the negative comments, it obviously was not going to be a blockbuster movie, someone had an idea and went thru with it, congrats to them for being able to make their movie.
