As a fan of WWE and The Flintstones, this film was quite surprising for me. I have noticed that in recent years there were created some animated films with WWE superstars (Scooby-Doo! WrestleMania Mystery, Surf's Up 2: WaveMania) and they are likely to be a small propaganda. Also, Fred Flintstone said a couple of times something like: "It's nothing dangerous, it's just entertainment! People want a show!" I like that the creators left the character qualities and abilities and the overall character. Fred is sometimes naive, Barney is more careful, Wilma and Betty are careful too etc. That's important for these films. And now the story. In my opinion, the story was just like put out from some Flintstones episode. Fred doesn't get the payout, so they cannot go to the vacation etc. Classic. Wrestlers were well incorporated here. Warner Bros. found the way how to get them here. My favorite is probably John Cenastone (John Cena). Boulder sisters (Bella twins) was weird here. FFE (Fred Flintstone Entertainment) was much less than in reality. It's PG. The animation is typical for Hanna-Barbera. Crazy, nice and quite elastic. This is HANNA-BARBERA! Humor was here, but weak. The positive side of the film is that it showed a lot of things how they are working in the Bedrock. Now I know more about the Bedrock. This isn't enough for the Flintstones. They were different.

This direct to DVD movie is like a new extended episode of The Flintstones, featuring a handful of WWE wrestling superstars—it's just long enough to not be considered a short film. Fred Flintstone (Jeff Bergman) attempts another scheme to get rich quick. This time it's to face professional wrestlers, and in the stone age, it's not staged. WWE fans will like this as they see animated version of what are often referred to as real-life animated characters. Appearances are made by John Cena, CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio, Mark Henry, The Bella Twins, and WWE owner Vince McMahon as Mr. McMagma. Each one has a stone age counterpart name but half the fun of this movie is hearing what the names are so I won't spoil the rest. Older fans of the original Flintstone series will probably be annoyed by the voices, particularly Barney's. Guys like Rick Moranis did a decent job of replicating Alan Reed's voice in the 1994 movie "The Flintstones," but I feel Kevin Michael Richardson does a terrible job. It's not a great movie by any standard, but lives up to its expectations

Whatever we think of this movie, based in Bedrock and guest stars WWE Wrestlers and their boss (if we count out CM Punk, which left before this cartoon was released but was left there as part of the story line), I kinda enjoyed it for the nostalgia and the fact that part of the WWE world is a cartoon by itself...Most of the movie was drawn like season one of the original series. Even Barney gets close to the original voice (but I miss Mel Blanc or even Daws Butler in some of season's two episodes). However, it gets back to Fred's original "get rich quick" schemes, when he was denied of a vacation cheque due to an accident. An event staged by the Water Buffaloes gives him an idea with a few wrestlers he meets on the way (like John Cena, El Mysterio and The Undertaker) or some brutes (CM Punk and Mark Henry) and sassy Divas (the Bella Twins). And not forget Mr.McMahon ! And Barney might be the solution to get the clams in the pocket for a Rockapulco vacation for the families...Watch for the fun of it, take it light. It's been a long time in my book the Flinstones lost it in animation (the original series were the best from 1961-66) but it brings back some nostalgia about how the Flinstones and the Rubbles were part of prime time a long way back.Watch it in English mostly, not in French. Very bad Parisian dubbing and WB should have known Quebec had one of the best French versions in the 70s with the original series...And by the way, watch again the one in season 3, when Barney does a ventriloquist trick to Pebbles to fool Fred, but ends up being spectators in a wrestling show to make it up...

I have to say that when I was a lot younger I occasionally watched a "Flintstones" episode on television. So I was curious to see what this new film was about. I knew that i couldn't care less about the wrestler part, so I had almost no idea who all these people were. Still, the Flintstones core story kind of delivered. Fred wants to take his family and friends on a holiday, but he loses all the money. So he convinces Barney to go with him and take a journey into the world of Wrestling. I did like that they included some of the original funny moments of the television series from over 50 years ago, like that household items are made of dinosaurs. And all the other prehistoric references were fun to watch as well. Biggest flaw was possibly Wilma's voice for me. Yes the actress is super experienced, but she was way too old for the part. Wilma sounded like her own mother or as if she had smoked 10 cigarettes every day since the original cartoon series ended. Oh yeah, this one is not 44 minutes long as stated on the IMDb title page, but 50 (with credits), so this is almost a feature film already, not a short movie anymore. Decent watch all in all, some good moments in terms of the story, some boring ones too unfortunately, but as a whole not a complete disappointment. The animation is fine as well. Enjoy your stay in Rockapulco, Fred.
