Review Time: this
project is mixed.
Fundamental elements: there are voice-over elements, background music, cultural
elements, mental imagery, slow-motion effects, time jumps and place jumps.
Storyline/Character developments: now I will be discussing these two elements at the same
time in some elements. This project is and was hard work to watch, because the
storyline is boring and without giving too much away never discusses this
situation as it relates to one parent and on top of that it turns the main
character's reactions to this situation into a bad thing [on a side note it
needs to be pointed out that if you want to react to this situation like the
way this character does/did, it is completely normal, but if you want to react
in a different way within reason that is acceptable to, but I have to say when
these two characters are reunited it is a very touching moment.
But
for the other character developments, generally speaking they are something
safe and reliable.
Artistic visions:
now from this perspective there is only one way I can describe the artistic
visions, on one hand you have the paint by numbers that kind of thing going on
and on the other hand you have things like; 0G Land which shows imagination and
a high-level of an artistic vision, the same can be said for when our lead
character is inside/getting this giant robot thing to work or shooting/firing
Liquorice or this straws sequences, I really don't want to give too much away as
it relates to these sequences because there has been clearly a lot of effort
put into them and when you see them you will go "Oh now I
understand."
Comedy level/Voice performances: Steve [voice by John Oliver,] the more time the viewers
spends with this character the funnier he gets including John Oliver's voice
performance [before someone points this out I will point it out myself, this
character is just and I mean this in a good way, this is just John Oliver in an
animal form.] The voice performances; the audience feels the strong bond
between mother and daughter, but for the rest of this cast their voice
performances are also something safe and reliable.
This film receives:
4/10, it hasn't been easy to mark this title yes I have only two marks in mind,
this project does have some good elements to it, but at the same time I can't
ignore how bored or depressing in places this project is.
