    It was alright

    Should've been better. I was a huge fan of Barbarian, but the storytelling in this is not at that same caliber. Gustavo carried the comedic factor. Character development was okay.

    The most annoying part for me is I kept thinking about the Oscar winner for best live action short which was like the same concept. I was really annoyed that it won and so I was annoyed at this from the start.

    Animation Rules

    There's a couple things I really loved about this film.

    1. I feel that it celebrates animation's power in the grandiose and the subtle. One minute I was watching a massive prehistoric-like whale emerging from the water and the next I was studying the smallest movement in the cat's eyes.

    2. I was a big fan of where they placed the line between the realistic and the abstract. It was right where it ought to be - dreamlike
