    Fun, visceral, stressful, full of love and life.

    The adventure sequences are masterful.

    Despite no dialogue, the characters are well developed and intricate as they are in nature.

    The flood feels like it’s happening to us. I love how we’re at the perspective of the cat.

    Just a fun ass watch with beautiful animation and a care for the craft. What a year for animated features and I’m not mad this won. (Tho memoir of a snail shook me to my core)

    Watched this for the first time last night and was blown away by the mastery.

In a disgustingly indulgent 3 hour run time, I was itching to leave at minute 30. Zero jokes landed, Margot…

    So much second hand embarrassment watching the final one shot sequence… someone needs to bring back actually creepy girls playing the creepy girls. Also the weird feminism of the killer refusing to kill women cause of some feaux sisterhood? Please.. enjoyed the first half and almost walked out during the second, what a piece of steaming shit! Fun to talk shit about though. I mean Mia goth can be bad but this movie really made me appreciate her more, at least the 1 shot at the end of pearl was 20% more interesting than this
