AKA The Yeti Adventures
Was a cute animated story with silly characters.
Loved the score.

Some would say its bad luck that 8.5 million dollars was spent on this movie instead of something like feeding the starving or sheltering the homeless. Some would say its good luck that i found it on netflix. Nobody can really say, but what i can say is that im gleefully awaiting the next adventure of nelly and simon.
Si un ami vous demande de voir Mission Yéti, c’est qu’il vous veut du mal en voulant faire perdre votre temps.
C’était les 1h20 les plus longues de ma vie tant le film ne raconte rien à cause de son animation daté ainsi qu’une écriture et des thématiques très passéistes.
Québec, 1954 : Simon (un apprenti chercheur en science) et Nelly (une détective privée débutant) se voient leur destin croisé quand ils doivent enquêter sur l’existence du Yéti avec l’aide de Tensing (guide Sherpa).
En vrai, j’ai pas grand chose à dire... tant il y a rien à dire là dessus.
Sérieusement, le style graphique a beau vouloir être soigné dans les décors avec des perspectives plutôt intéressantes mais c’est…
Verdict: Fun Family Animation
Story: A Yeti Adventure starts as Nelly Maloye a private detective is escaping her latest case sees her end up in the middle rich heir Edward Martineau wanting to funding a yeti search to help ambition young scientist Simon Picard, who has 3 months to locate a yeti to prove his theory.
Once Simon and Nelly arrive in Nepal, they are joined by Sherpa Tensing Gombu, the grandson of the one that was involved in the closest case to locating a yeti in the past, one he was lost on.
Thoughts on A Yeti Adventure
Characters – Simon Picard is a scientist who has been trying to link the evolution line of humans to the yeti…
The animation is low budget, but it has a stylized comic book finish that I rather enjoyed, especially when it came to the landscapes. Where I really felt the lack of budget is in the story. It's about as cliché as it gets, with paper thin characters and a total lack of cultural depth. Think about what Coco did for Mexico or what Moana did for the South Pacific, and then imagine the opposite. Nelly and Simon travel to Nepal, but all we get is a shallow touristy version of the country, and there's no attention to detail. The characters fly directly to the base of Mount Everest without getting altitude sickness. There's nothing about Sherpa, Nepalese or Tibetan culture. The mountain villages of the region are completely erased. The fauna and the geography are ignored. It seems like they couldn't hire someone who's actually been there!
With how animation has evolved and become more sophisticated and the rise of many computer animation studios, there is a certain expectation when it comes to theatrically released films. Even a film coming from a smaller studio needs to look high quality. Nelly & Simon: Mission Yeti has a few flourishes of inspiration, but it’s the sort of product best relegated to home video. At no point does the material truly click or inspire, although there is a possibility that the English dub of this Quebecois animated film loses something in translation. Mission Yeti is unquestionably aimed at the younger tykes, although even they deserve higher quality films.
Despite Nelly and Simon receiving titular billing, Nelly is the far more interesting…
