This handsomely animated film, featuring an impressive voice performance by Lupita Nyong'o as Roz, unfortunately falls short of its considerable hype. While the animation quality is stunning and Nyong'o's work stands out among the cast, the overall narrative suffers from too many competing plotlines that dilute its impact. The film would have benefited from a more focused approach, trimming secondary storylines to better develop its core themes. Despite my strong desire to embrace it and the glowing reviews it has…
A most rewarding film with formidable performances. The decision to leave the political storyline (King's Palace) unresolved inflicted quite the wound on what would have been an all-timer. This film cries for a second part- would have spared the director from the need to pack a dense plot into a 2-hour story.
Handsomely shot but the storytelling decisions by the documakers are so fucked. Beneath the cheap shock climax is a potentially deeper story that remained untouched.
