Aardman Animations hat für Netflix mit "Robin Robin" einen kurzen und süßen Stop-Motion-Genuss abgeliefert, der das Zeug hat, in meine Weihnachtsfilme-Playlist aufgenommen zu werden.
"Robin Robin" ist eine einfache Geschichte, die sich bei verschiedenen bekannten Geschichten bedient, um sie zu etwas Eigenem zu vermischen. Man bekommt ein bisschen "Das hässliche Entlein", einen Hauch von "In einem Land vor unserer Zeit" und auch Spuren vom Grüffelo kann man entdecken. Alles fügt sich zu einem recht unterhaltsamen Weihnachtsmärchen zusammen, ohne einen aber storymässig umzuhauen.
Versteh mich jetzt bitte nicht falsch, diese Kurzgeschichte ist nie langweilig oder nervig, die Stop-Motion-Animation ist wirklich wunderbar und es gibt trotz der vorhersehbaren Story, zweifellos viel zu mögen. Die Puppen, Landschaften, Charaktere und Kameraführung sind vorbildlich. Aardman…

Gillian Anderson gives the ASMR performance of a lifetime in this cutesy original Christmas tale by the always heartwarming Aardman Animations.

“Okay, we’re going to have to be the sneakiest mice we’ve ever been.”
“.... But, you’re not a mouse”This charmingly cute Christmas special from Aardman, features an orphaned robin named Robin who’s adopted by mice and trained in the art of crumb robbin'.
These fantastical felt furries inhabit a world that's so wonderfully whimsical and densely packed that I could stare at it for hours and still find something shiny, special and new.
Richard E. Grant is marvelous as the materialistic magpie and Gillian Anderson makes for nicely menacing Cheshire Cat of felt-nip.
Speaking of which….
BONUS POINTS for Dink, the cat loving mouse who wants nothing more than to be the feline’s friend.
”Can the cat be in the family?”
‘No, Dink, the cat tried to eat us.” -
Está bonito, sobre todo el stop motion pero nunca encontré las intenciones del corto, el mensaje está choteadísimo. Al menos me reí con varios chistes y por alguna razón me quedé pensando en que hubiera estado mejor si hubiera sido para adultos, K.
Confirmado que ya estoy amargado por ponerme exigente con un corto navideño :(

A holiday charmer, Daniel Ojari and Mikey Please's "Robin Robin" is an engrossingly crafted short about finding family and one's self. Focusing on a robin who is taken under the wing of a family of mice, the musical Aardman adventure finds the titular bird lost and learning about herself. The stop-motion animation is a delightful, textured treat powered by voices that give the work a warm and gentle tone. Soft and smart, the short film is as enchanting as it is brief.

Robin: "And if there's one thing us mice are good at, it's sneaking."
Magpie: "Sorry, what?"
Robin: "Oh, like, into houses. To get stuff. Like, stealing it."
Magpie: [Sighs.] "Right." [Gasps.] "Riiiiiight! Show me."This is cute. Once again, Aardman Animations painstakingly handcrafted another stop-motion short for our viewing pleasure. It's funny, musical, and tells an earnest Christmas story. If only Aardman had more shorts like this...

Quickie Review (A Very Merry Cinematic Christmas 2021)
Let’s take a quick detour into animation as A Very Merry Cinematic Christmas continues with this half-hour Netflix animated special from Oscar-winning stop-motion makers Aardman that’s perfect family entertainment for the holidays. In this funny and warm-hearted fable, we meet Robin (voiced by Brontë Carmichael), a bird that was raised by a family of mice and on one night after being separated from her adopted family, she joins an injured bird named Magpie (voiced by Richard E. Grant) on a journey to reunite with her family, avoid a deadly feline (voiced by Gillian Anderson) and discover who she truly is, all while setting off on a very big heist to prove that… -

Not only is this stop-motion from Aardman, but you get to listen to Richard E. Grant be a doofus and Gillian Anderson purr and meow as a villainous cat.
