Plot

A boy, Payton Shoemaker and his little sister Maggie engage in an adventure to save (and secretly befriend) a young male bigfoot which they name him Bilbo (after Bilbo Baggins from The Hobbit) and his injured mother (who gets shot in her kneecap prior to the opening of the film by the hunters) from a logging company who is illegally hunting them down while on summer vacation in Cedar Lake, California with their older brother, Peter, their dog, Max, and their widowed mother.

Reception

American magazine TV Guide gave the film one star out of four, stating:

LITTLE BIGFOOT turns every character into a one-note bore: the Evil Businessman, the Perky Mom, the Cute Sister, etc., all the better to piledrive its conservation message home. There's no subtlety or relief from the chest-pounding self-righteousness, as sorrowful Bilbo literally hugs the stumps of murdered redwoods.[1]
