"Fish Night" is a nice departure from the typical formula of this series. This short throws back to a more primordial, ethereal sensibility instead of the "tech gone wrong" trope. Two salesmen are stranded in the middle of a desert after their car breaks down. As nightfall arrives so does an otherworldly aquatic society.

Today: Love, Death & Robots: Fish NightHi everybody, an interesting idea a metaphorically brilliant concept and definitely not as straight-forward and on the nose as the many other episodes in the series, yet nothing more than a nice short bringing you joy for the time being but not as memorable as for example LDR: Good Hunting or "Zima Blue" that stick with you for quite a while.

Fittingly the only one of these that uses realistic style animation properly to actually do something impossible that you couldn’t recreate in real life. This is unfortunately also an unfinished story. It’s exactly like the first ten minutes of a much better movie.

This one's actually my favourite so far, the character designs are a little boring but this is a really beautifully animated film. Love the concept and how it's not nearly as tryhard as all of the other shorts. Just a shame that it ends so abruptly because this really needs an ending to it.
