“A mess, but what a beautiful mess.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eItu0026#39;s clear the director wanted this to be a philosophical film, but he failed to get his vision across to the audience. There are bunch of bizarre scenes and plot points that donu0026#39;t make any sense.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eStill, this my third favorite UY film. Despite the nonsense, it is very entertaining to watch. A lot of the surreal moments and imagery in this is fascinating.They throw so many things at you that if you didnu0026#39;t like one scene, youu0026#39;ll like the next one. The cast is humorous enough that they manage to ground the film so that it doesnu0026#39;t become a pretentiousness fest. u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe animation is fluid and gorgeous. It dates very well and is the best animated film of the entire series. It has a unique musical score and I have to give the composer props for creating music that perfectly complimented some very weird stuff.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNot technically a good film, but it has always had a place in my heart.”
