![]() (Yes, I’m that kinda guy, shut up.)Īnyway, this is all basically my diplomatic way of saying I went into this movie completely blind. It even had an English dub so I wouldn’t have to read subtitles. After all, I do tend to find some interesting lesser-known films on the Oscar shortlist (like this year’s excellent underrated animated documentary, Another Day of Life) and this movie seemed interesting enough. And, since I was in the midst of gathering movies for my usual End-of-Year list for 2019 (since I’ve done similar lists in the past for 2016, 20), I figured I might as well give it a shot. I’ve enjoyed Chinese animation, Russian animation, Indies and lesser-known animated movies, the lot. And I don’t mean just anime, I mean animated films from all sorts of different countries. More than that, I’m a big animated film fan, especially foreign animation. So let me spell out exactly how my ‘discovery’ of this film came about, much in the way of how a crew of poor hapless fools might ‘discover’ the entrance to Cthulu’s hidden temple. I’d never really heard of this movie either, at least until I saw it on a list of films put in contention for this year’s Best Animated Oscar. Okay, so I imagine most of you guys have absolutely no idea what this movie is, let alone what makes it so absolutely batshit insane that I had to make a review about it. ![]()
