From the director of Birdboy comes another dark, wacky animation. Vázquez has a unique vision and delivers dark fantasy like no one else. I can't say everything worked equally well for me, but there are moments of sheer brilliance here, and with a little more fine-tuning I could see him making a true gem. The art style is a little simplistic, but there is certainly beauty there. The soundtrack on the other hand is outstanding and elevates the film whenever it is put front and center. The dub could've been better and the mix of cute and dark doesn't quite work, but it's a unique film that is hard to compare with anything out there. Recommended for fans of animation.Read all
Birdboy: The Forgotten Children
A stylish and surprisingly dark animation that has a lot to offer. The art style is amazing, the characters are intruiging and its universe is a treat to explore. But the animation itself and the visual direction are a little too bland for a film of this calibre. It's definitely a film you'd want to see if you're an animation fan, but the film's potential isn't used to its fullest.
