Absolutely Stunning Piece Of Animation but......., 13 May 2004
Author: frodo980 from LA

I see I took this film a little bit more light-hearted than some of the other reviewers it seems. I used to always to see this movie in the tv guide on the Starz Encore network. I always wanted to watch it because I was just so curious about what this film was but I never could watch it because it always aired only on sundays at 5 am, it was always that day and time. Finally curiousity drove me so insane I *gasp* tried to figure out how to program my vcr, when I failed miserably I just started taping at 3 am and hoped for the best. I didn't get to watch what I had taped until I got home from school the next day and boy was it worth pretty much wasting a blank tape! This film totally blew my mind, I've always loved those weird indy foreign cartoons, especially the 70's ones. This movie not only had some of the most visually pleasing effects, it also had some of the best music I've ever heard. The overall tone of the film did seem to be an attempt to point out how wrong and selfish gluttony is and that last scene pretty much showed just how wrong he thought it really is, but the music, effects, and overall mood and atmosphere the film puts you in is too amazing and totally drowns out whatever political message this creator wanted to get out. Even the simplest things in this film, like the chewing and walking scenes just totally blow you away and burn in your memory for life. This is an all around wonderful film, a must see for any animation fan.
