This is just terrifying, even for adults. I have no doubt that any child old enough to recognise anything beyond coloured regions on a screen will start to cry if you show them this. The music sounds like one member of Daft Punk murdering the other in a dark alley, the animation is worse than Foodfight, the character design is often awful and sometimes offensive and to top it all off, the entire premise is ripped off from Santa Claus Conquers The Martians, which somehow manages to shine with cinematic brilliance in comparison. In fact, just stop now. Show your kids Santa Claus Conquers The Martian. Yes, it may be dated, the acting is bad and the premise ridiculous, but it will at least teach your children not to simply dismiss older films. This horror show will teach them nothing except to fear the angry green gummy god.

This movie is so bad in every way. The animation is lazy. I've seen better on YouTube. I was surprised when I saw the Lionsgate animation. I questioned why they could do something like this. I wouldn't show this to my worst enemy, never mind my child. I haven't even mentioned how hideous the character design is, especially gummi himself, with his stubble, man boobs, beer belly and asscrack visible at all time. If their goal was to make him look like a 40 year old alcoholic living in a caravan payed for by his mother, they succeeded admirably.

Yes, of course this film is incompetently bad. What I was not expecting, however, was a mind-rotting fever dream full of scenes, characters and (especially) dialogue that made absolutely no sense on even the most surface of levels. I hate this movie. I want that wasted time back.

I've never wanted to gouge out my own eyes before but after enduring this film with the kids, I'm ready to get it over with.
Just shocking.
I actually thought it was a school media project the graphics as so bad!

I'd give zero stars if possible.
Terrible characterization showing terrible behavior by the characters. Rotten dialog.
Of course, one doesn't expect oscar-worthy script writing from a movie like this, but it's got inappropriate humor and is just plain awful in every way.

At first I thought this film was released years too late, because the gummy bear has been long forgotten about by now.
However, once I actually watched it, I realised that time is not the only problem. This could have been released 5 minutes after the video went 'viral' and it would still have sucked.

This is terrifying and absolutely nightmare fuel, even for adults and children. The whole movie would've been about Gummibär and his friends stopping an alien invasion and saving Santa Claus and Christmas, but no. We got this movie instead. The characters are bad, the animation is ugly and kala's design looks like a swimsuit for some reason, making it inappropriate for a kids film.
The antagonist is a huge jerk towards Gummibar and his friends. The humour is also cringe!
If you're ever going on Amazon or EBay, and you search up Gummibar, go watch either Roary The Racing Car or Fifi and The Flowertots instead. They're way much better than this horrible movie.

The character models look terrible! First, Santa gets into the chimney and then that toy plays that horrible song "The Gummy Bear Song". Really... Move it or lose it. Gummy looks like a man, but his voice in the movie sounds like he's 12. Don't waste 50 minutes on this.

This has to be a horrible way to make a Christmas special starring that annoying gummy bear character that is always singing and dancing in nothing but his underwear. The plot is Santa is missing, and Gummy and his friends have to save him. Yeah, whoever thought this annoyance needed a Christmas movie should have been fired, as the story is horribly written, and the character models are not well done, from the elves to the humans (with the only good model being from the cat girl who looks like she is a Happy Tree Friends reject since she has a heart-shaped nose). Also, the songs here are very annoying. This is a holiday special bound for the naught list.

In the eerie town of Whispering Pines, a legend loomed-whispers of the Gamibear, a cursed relic that had been lost for centuries. Stories told of its malevolent powers, claiming it could bring joy or wreak havoc upon those who possessed it.
Nate, an adventurous soul, stumbled upon the fabled artifact while exploring an abandoned mansion on the outskirts of town. Ignoring the warnings etched on decaying walls, he pocketed the Gamibear, oblivious to the darkness it held.
As night fell, bizarre occurrences besieged Nate's home. Odd noises echoed in the corridors, shadows danced where light should have been, and an icy chill seeped through the air. His family, initially dismissing his tales of the Gamibear's curse, began to sense a malevolent presence.
The next morning, terror struck. Nate's sister, Emily, woke to find her room filled with eerie whispers, the Gamibear sitting ominously on her nightstand. Petrified, she tried to flee, but unseen forces held her captive, the room pulsating with an otherworldly energy.
Meanwhile, Nate's parents, curious yet apprehensive, attempted to dispose of the cursed object. Their efforts proved futile; the Gamibear always reappeared, mocking their futile attempts to rid themselves of its curse.
Days turned into haunting nights, each passing moment intensifying the sinister grip of the Gamibear. Whispers grew louder, shadows stretched longer, and a malevolent aura pervaded every corner of the house. The family's once peaceful abode transformed into a chamber of horrors.
Emily, tormented by visions and plagued by relentless whispers, succumbed to the Gamibear's insidious influence. Her eyes glazed over with a sinister gleam as she turned against her own flesh and blood, driven by an otherworldly force.
Nate, desperate to save his family, sought the aid of an enigmatic local historian, Ms. Hawthorne. She revealed grim truths about the Gamibear's origins-a cursed relic forged in agony and despair, seeking to consume the souls of those it touched.
Ms. Hawthorne guided Nate through ancient rituals, each step fraught with danger, aiming to banish the cursed object. But the Gamibear, fueled by centuries of darkness, fought back ferociously, unleashing horrors beyond comprehension.
As the final incantation was uttered, the mansion quaked, unleashing a torrent of spectral energies. The Gamibear, a vessel of unfathomable malevolence, shattered into a thousand shards, releasing a cacophony of tortured whispers before fading into oblivion.
Exhausted and shaken, Nate and his family emerged from the ordeal, scarred by the horrors they had witnessed. The mansion stood silent, the Gamibear's curse finally lifted, but its chilling legacy lingered-a tale of terror whispered in the shadows of Whispering Pines for generations to come.

This movie is horrible. Really. Avoid it. I would rather get tortured in a North Vietnamese prisoner camp than go through this again. The animation is god awful, so bad I considered calling a priest to pour holy water over my eyes after watching this video. My family now keeps me away from any high areas, as I can't stop myself from trying to jump off them. It's been 2 months now, and I'm thankfully cured from this urge, but I get it every now and again. I'm serious. The animation is horrible. The lizard looks like he injected heroin before every scene. There is no plot, only doing. Santa looks like he's serving 4 years in a county jail for trying to "have fun" with a child. The dialogue is god awful. It sounds it was made by someone while they were jerking off. The alien looks like he was drawn by a drunk toddler. To whoever made this: please give a free bottle of bleach to anyone who had the misfortune of watching this. Please avoid.

This is the best film to ever grace the screen. The voice acting and writing are both incredible. The story was astonished. I laughed, I cried, I jumped for joy, I punched holes in my wall, and I peed. I felt so many emotions all at once. Not only is the movie great but it LOOKS great too. This looks straight out of 2022 when it was really made 10 years prior. The models and backgrounds are incredible. I absolutely love this movie. No other movie could ever top this, and I well and truly mean that. This is a cinematic masterpiece for all ages. I have watched this movie a total of 73 times. Gummibär: The Yummy Gummy Search for Santa is truly the best movie ever made.
This is a kids animation based on the singing gummy bear sensation that is viral on youtube. OK so I stumbled upon gummy bear when I was searching for some video's on youtube that would make my baby smile, and sure enough when the big green bear started dancing and singing my baby boy was mesmerized, its really scary how gummy bear can stop my boy from crying in an instant and turn those tears into smiles !, Anyway for the reasons above it was a no brainer to get the movie and watch it with my son. Sure enough he loves the movie and again is mesmerized when I play it for him.
OK about the movie itself, well I should state that for adult members of the family, the story line may be a bit simplistic and basically ludicrous at times, but remember the movie is not aimed at adults ( apart from a few jokes that is). Indeed I would say that even kids above the age of say seven might find the story uninteresting and stupid. However, stick a kid younger than this ( in my case my nine month old son) and BINGO they are transfixed by the green bear and his friends.
So in short don't let the lack of decent story line put you off, if you have kids under seven, then I am pretty sure they will love it.
