Expected a bit too much from it.

Steamboy was also 10+ years in the making. The result was a rare level of detail. This film technically/visually does not rise above average anywhere. Too bad, for a film that took so long to make. I think the production time had much more to do with the "amateurism" of this project.

That being said, not a bad film per se. But you really have to like it. Stop-motion is not for everyone. Personally, I think it often gives films a wonderfully dark, "different" atmosphere. This one is no exception.

Visually it often looks a bit poor (water with visible transparent wrapping paper ...), but the designs are quite creepy, the animation only reinforces that feeling. The music is nice, but often comes a bit forced into the film.

Story is ordinary, with here and there some tempo problems. Sometimes it goes very fast, but separate scenes are again stretched out very long.

Definitely a project that could have done better, but I still hold these kinds of films close to my heart. It was beautiful to watch, great atmosphere, but it is time that these kinds of films take a step further.

3.5*

Visually quite a cool thing. Nice bright colours sometimes, very dark, it looks very cheap (with little smooth animation) but somehow that fits. As for atmosphere a fine film. But content wise a lot less interesting and this style suits me better with short films, stop-motion always remains difficult to really lose myself in (exceptions aside). So despite the limited length of just over an hour I was also bored. 2.5*.
