About This Movie

So, you’ve got Franklin & Friends: Deep Sea Voyage, and it’s an interesting little piece from 2014. The film has this light-hearted tone, typical of animated family features, but it leans heavily into an underwater exploration theme that’s quite charming. The pacing feels a bit slow at times, which might be the result of its TV movie roots, but it balances that with some lively moments from Franklin and Bear. The practical effects used for the submarine and underwater scenes have a quaint quality that adds to its appeal.
