Really thoughtful and beautifully made.
Loved the structure of each episode and their individual visual metaphors as well as the decision to pair episodes with one adult and one kid.
Every short story felt super grounded and I love the whole they worked together to become. The overall theme of not knowing what other people are going through was executed super well.
I don’t think I could pick a favorite episode, but I’m bummed because I know the original episode…
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
It was okay. The VFX at the start of the movie had me a little worried but once everything isn’t lit in the brightest daylight it smooths out.
It felt like there was a lot of chaff left in this movie that could have been trimmed for pacing. Not scenes but more like establishing shots and the edges of cuts. That said, I feel like I didn’t get a feel for most of the main cast at all like in…
I just wish I could understand why Lilly likes Jarrod. Is she just in it because his family is great?
In this movie you get to see Santa become a boy’s sleep paralysis demon and then he just shows up in his house for real.
Also how dare this movie take place in South Town and not have Terry Bogard show up?
