Special dark animated film that certainly does not develop the feeling of a feel-good movie (like most animated films) in the viewer. Sometimes brutal, violent and creepy even for younger viewers.
In terms of concept, this film is original and has some fantastic scenes such as the spider, Birdboy who becomes very angry and attacks the garbage dump and the soul leaving the body. Beautiful images, sometimes bizarre in content. Not everything is always clear. Definitely a film that deserves a second viewing. 7/10

Hmm.
On the one hand, it's really worth it. The special drawing style and the dark events make this film quite a special experience. Visually it is a very nice style, not very detailed but quite unique. Furthermore, the world in which the characters live is quite intriguing and at times surprisingly brutal. Although it must also be said that this is based on a graphic novel, so I have no idea how much credit this film can take.
Unfortunately, the animation and direction often fail. The fact that the style is relatively simple is not so bad, because it is expressive enough. But the animation is otherwise fairly poor and in terms of direction it all remains very well-behaved and limited. Things move quite slowly and after a while they look a bit uninspired, while this film really does have something to show and tell.
It doesn't really take long, but I was still a bit hungry during the last fifteen minutes. Certain "impressive" scenes don't feel real and the film doesn't really end with a big bang. Too bad, because the potential was certainly there, especially when I hear that 4°C also contributed to this film. The directors could have made them work a little harder, then this would have been a real masterpiece. Now it is still a film that is definitely worth trying, especially if you are an animation fan, but in the end it was not really convincing.
3.5*
