So...
This movie was a ride to say the least. I walked into this expecting what I read in the synopsis, but the synopsis did NOT prepare me for what I actually viewed.
Story- 4
It was going just fine in the beginning; there were fish, oceans, kids talking about a ghost of the sea, just as the synopsis said. But then, that all changed. I tried to understand what was actually happening and catch the meaning, but from that whale consumption scene to end of the movie, all I picked up was...METEOR, THE MEANING OF LIFE, BIRTH... THE UNIVERSE!!! I couldn't follow along then.
Art- 9
The animation was beautiful. The ocean scenes, the fish, the rain illusions especially. The camera movements through me off a little at certain scenes, but overall, it was amazing.
Sound- 9
I didn't focus on the music too much in this one, but it was very soothing. I enjoyed what I listened to throughout the entire movie.
Character- 4
No development to speak of, I couldn't really read anyone, and there isn't anything else to discuss.
Enjoyment - 6
I did enjoy this for the most part. I wasn't bored and it DEFINITELY kept me intrigued...but it did swim squares around me.
Overall- 6
This movie was something. I liked what I was given and this is something I think would be a good watch for movie night, mainly to see the faces of those who don't know what's coming. But honestly... I felt like I was on drugs while watching this.
