Let’s start with the best aspect of the movie, this is the best low poly animation I have seen. The entire city, the buildings, the environment, the flame, smoke everything is low poly.
For those who don’t know, low poly means the shapes of objects are in pure shapes, polygons, triangles, with edges and vertices visible. And it might seem weird for smoke, wind and fires to have shapes, but the way trigger has worked their magic, you are just left in awe, and overwhelmed by the animation.
The way the camera moved, and the way the perspective changed, moving flawlessly around the fight scenes, giving us an overall view of the characters, zooming in and out at perfect timing, while being in combat, focusing on every single point of detail that could be possibly fit inside a frame and smoothly changing from frame to frame without disturbing the harmony created by the elements constituting the beauty of the show, is a sight to behold.
One side of the conflict is made up of squares, the other by triangles, while their powers and the battle taking place is detailed with polygons. One side is blue, the other is pink. One side is cold, the other is hot. Every silhouette is optimal. Every character design, robot design, vehicle design, machinery and their corresponding colour palates are unrivalled in their simplicity and their clarity.
The CG is used in such a beautiful way, it’s hard to explain vocally, the attention to detail, movement, camera, designs, background, was perfect beyond words.
The colours used were so unique and added such character and class to the moments amplifying the details such that the visual input received by the eyes far exceeded the processing capacity of the brain, and one feels taken back by what they see.
Just excellent work on that one,
Classic trigger.
Plot:
The story was fairly predictable, the framework of the script was cliché.
so, in this world 30 years ago, some humans got supernatural powers of being able to control the fire which emerged from their self, they could guide the fire to take any shape and form, and they have to live with it.
Naturally, the majority of humanity was afraid of these beings, called “burnish” who could spontaneously combust anything, giving them the title of terrorists. They don’t believe in taking life, but can’t suppress their natural craving for letting their fire loose.
So, we have an organisation, who deal with these fires, firefighters, and our protagonist is a new member, who is reckless, overly passionate, has a strong sense of justice and has a wrong idea about the burnish like everyone else. classic cliché character and story.
None the less, it remains intriguing and fun to watch.
Sound:
Excellent sound direction. The super hype and awesome songs, to the vibing music themes of characters, to the emotional music which intensified feels.
Conclusion:
So, we have an outstanding animation, simple to understand story, awesome music and characters. Go for it. It’s an amazing show to watch with friends, or even if you are alone, it will entertain you even if u don’t love it. It’s, in general, a good movie to watch if you want to divert your mind from a serious thriller show or you want to get your mind off of things or if you just want to put something on and chill.
Anyone can watch this one, it’ll be entertaining for all age groups. If you are looking for a psychological and serious thriller, you won’t find it here. It’s more of a relaxed, laid back and hype movie.
If possible, try to watch this on a bigger screen, laptop or tv, so that you can see every single detail, colours, animation, etc which make this movie substantial.
