Cool to look at, but little substance


The animation is great, but the movie itself is honestly a bit boring considering there is little-to-no plot. Was a bit of letdown tbh

Yes, I wish they spent more time on writing, because this would have made it truly memorable, but it is still cool as it is. Apparently the guy is a visual artist.

This movie has captured the greatest representation of what Hell would be like I've ever seen and it gets great marks for that alone.. The story is probably their but you have too interpret it through symbolism and I might not be artsy fartsy enough to decipher that. I'll have a family member watch it that's big into are and she can explain it to me.

Exactly! I literally felt better about life when those credits rolled

reply

Yeah, I agree. It felt like an extended demo reel for the stop-motion animation, which does look fantastic.

A story would be a distraction

It was great in small doses, one disc chapter per watching session. If I tried to sit and watch the whole thing in one go, I'd pee my pants in boredom.
