Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a young boy, who is taken to work by his father and his grandfather for the first time. His task is to go on the moon and sweep the stars.Despite the film being just six minutes and thirty seconds long, it already tells a very sweet and adorable story. The story is imaginative, as I have never even imagined that stars have such as effect on the moon. The stars are beautiful, the characters are cute and the story is very sweet. In the space of just a few minutes, it has captured my imagination and my heart. It is a great animation.
Armand an admirable work. for story and for its levels. for animation. and for the profound message. for humor and for the reflection of viewer. a lesson. a mission. a choice. all in clothes of charming fairy tale. one of rare films who is magic at whole. without explanations, without chance to define the source of magic. a grand father, his son , his nephew. in a boat. and an amazing discovery. result - a great animation . and a splendid show . remembering old legends, the deep fascination of generation, the links who defines the family, the secret who is essence of every day life, the need of miracles, "La luna" is the perfect choice for entire family. not only for joy or learn about the essence of things. but, maybe, for remember the insignificant details who are roots for each of us. see it !
Neil Welch La Luna is the CGI short which accompanies Pixar's Brave. As always, there is a thematic link with the main picture: in this case it is to do with coming of age and bridging the generation gap.Papa and Nonno take Bambino out in the boat at night for the first time to help them carry out their work (he is given his first work hat). I will say no more about what that work is: that would spoil a number of surprises.The dialogue is cod-Italian, and the music is gorgeous. This charming, gently humorous little film is stunningly beautiful, and has a couple of quiet "Wow!" moments in it. I loved it.
Hellmant 'LA LUNA': Three Stars (Out of Five)Another Pixar animated short film, this one debuted in theaters before 'BRAVE' and was nominated for a 'Best Animated Short Film' Oscar at last year's Academy Awards. It tells the story of a boy, named Bambino, who goes to work with his father and grandfather for the first time one night. The three sail far out to sea and board the moon in order to clean up fallen stars on it. The boy's father and grandfather disagree on how to train Bambino and he must decide which one's instructions to follow or to do the job his own way. It was written and directed by first time filmmaker Enrico Casarosa and is spoken all in gibberish. The movie is pretty odd but without a doubt creative and original. I liked it's uniqueness but didn't find that much to really enjoy in the story. The characters aren't really developed enough to relate to or find inspiration from but it is only a 7 minute cartoon. It does have that classic old school cartoon feel to it and is quirky and somewhat oddly amusing. Not a great little short film but a decent one.Watch our movie review show 'MOVIE TALK' at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDQQKEqGhZQ
