If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

"Krokodil Gena" is a Soviet 20-minute animated movie by Roman Kachanov, the man behind the Cheburashka short films, a classic from the Golden Age of East European animation. This one still features a different title character, but this does not make it a worse watch at all in my opinion. I personally think it is on par with the sequels. The animation is not entirely my preferred choice of style, but it isn't bad either. If you like the style more than I do, you will probably really love this little film. There are some cute characters and scenes in here and the story generally has a decent amount of heart in it. Of course, if your mother tongue is not Russian, you may want to make sure you get a good set of subtitles. Watch it. I am positive you won't be disappointed.
