Karry Best movie of this year hands down!

Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System

Borserie it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Rockfish" is an 8-minute animated short film from 13 years ago that managed an Annie Award nomination back then. It is the most known work by writer (co-wrote the script with 3 others) and director Tim Miller. This may change soon though as Miller directed "Deadpool", one of the most eagerly awaited works of 2016, which will come out in about a month from now. It'll be interesting how this one goes as Miller has not made a film since "Rockfish" in 2003, especially not in terms of live action. But back to "Rockfish". I did not enjoy the watch too much I have to say. For my taste, it was too much of science-fiction and special effects instead of an interesting and convincing story. The animation was decent, but did not blew me away either. This rock/sand planet certainly could have looked much more impressive. And the relationship between the two main characters left me rather unattached as well. Not recommended.

ccthemovieman-1 This is fishing in the 54th century, I guess, or "Tremors" on another planet, or some combination of the two.It's very "sci-fi," very futuristic as we see a big, macho guy in his fancy rig on some desolate, rock-filled planet do his version of "fishing." He hooks the big one and it takes he and his pet dog-like creature on one wild ride along the rocky surface. When the "fish," finally emerges from the underground, you'll know what I mean about the reference to the film "Tremors." There are no laughs in this animated short, but the graphics are excellent and it keeps you riveted to the screen for the full nine minutes. This is fishing like you've never seen it!P.S. I didn't quite understand the ending but I don't think the story is going to capture most viewers, anyway, just the art and the action-packed sequences which will keep you wondering what exactly is beneath the earth that is so strong! Lovers of science fiction (and pets) should enjoy this.

Flick_Montana In this nigh 9 minute short, a man and his pet "alien" turn the most boring beer-drinkingest "sport" in the world into a fun ride.Blur is the capable 3D studio that churned out this little future fish tale. This story is about a nameless man and his pet whatever taking part in the only sport less sporty than golf, fishing. Yet somehow Blur manages to make it more than worth watching. Being a short as it is, there really isn't a deep story. Instead, Blur goes straight for the eye candy appeal.If you put aside any preconceptions of depth, poltwise, and just enjoy the story for what it is, this short is quite entertaining. The visuals are top notch for 2003 and hold up well even 3 years later (something that is hard to do in the 3D field).I'd recommend this short to anyone who likes pure unmussed action and visual glory. I can only sigh that they would make a longer version with Vin Diesel when there are real actors out there who would handle the job much better. But that is another story.This future Finding Nemo gets 8/10 stars from me. Enjoy! ~Aaron

Polaris_DiB A man in the future goes fishing with his dog(like creature), and in the process destroys his humongous futuristic car, millions of dollars of technology, and a lot of natural wonders. Fishing in the future must be a REAL sport.As animation goes, it's fabulous. It's done in very state-of-the-art CG animation that puts some full-length features and Hollywood-produced works to shame.In terms of story, it's not really that interesting, also considering the fact that all this stuff is destroyed, and for what? He doesn't claim the fish, or eat it, he's set alone in a desert with only his animal companion and nowhere to go... It lacks a lot of context, which makes it really strange and very difficult to relate to.Still, it's very creative, what with all the futuristic technology and stuff. The guy strikes a pose as this fantastic action-adventure hero, the burly guy of our science fiction dreams, and he is, after all, doing the same thing a lot of men go out to do: fish with a dog and a beer.It's interesting, I suppose, it's just that the action isn't that exciting when it doesn't really seem to have any context or point to it.--PolarisDiB
