One of the most beautiful, meaningful, and thoughtful films ever made. Ever since I first viewed this I haven’t stopped thinking about it. How it relates to me, what it means to me, and honestly how it understands me. I think that this film can genuinely mean something to anyone. Whether it’s love, lonelyness, creative ambition, so much is beautifully showcased through this powerful two hours. The screenplay is perfect, the direction is perfect, the performances are perfect, perfect perfect perfect. I wish I could tell Charlie Kafuman how much his films mean to me.

Yeah... this pretty much speaks for itself. Absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. Incredible performances, stunning cinematography, extremely memorable characters and scenes, and masterful suspense too. For such a seemingly large story, I loved how simple it reveals itself to be. The directing was superb as well, and I adored how the Coens managed to still put in a little bit of their humour without taking away from the overall tone of the film. And that final scene couldn’t be more perfect.

“And then I woke up.”

Definitely not anything groundbreaking for Pixar, but this was still super cute! I really loved the characters, the animation had a unique style and of course looked stunning, and the way it utilised the Italian setting was great too. But while I liked the simplicity of the story, there’s certainly pretty predictable narrative beats at times, and the concept itself, while fun, I didn’t find to be too creative for the company, especially coming right after Soul. Really fun overall though! Pixar is finally back to making original movies again and I couldn’t be happier.
