The wild robot It is probably the best and certainly the most beautiful animated film of the year. It is deeply emotional without being too didactic, and the animation style is so evocative and distinctive that I want to touch and cry. Of Lilo and stitch and How to train your dragon Director Chris Sanders, The wild robot Follow a robot called Roz (with the voice of Lupita Nyong'o), which is stranded on a remote island, while taking care of a young Ansarón along the stations.
A beautiful animation is one thing, but The wild robot It is based on a very good story. The robots that go against their programming and the improbable relationships between parents and children are common tropes, but Sanders is not afraid to deepen the emotional nucleus, even if that means not going back to the saddest moments. His script focuses on the connection of Roz and Brightbill, interspersing moments in which Roz lets the little Ansarón help him build a shelter, despite the fact that the small branches that he really carries do not help his current directive, or Brightbill snuggling just below the joint of the Roz neck when she goes out and falls asleep. But it also goes back to show how its flourishing dynamics impacts the rest of the forest. For a story that is so intrinsically linked to its surroundings, that is a necessity.

Gender: Action and adventure comedy
Execution time: 1h 50m
Director: Jeff Fowler
Cast: Jim Carrey, Ben Schwartz, Krysten Ritter
Each Sonic movie has just improved, because each Sonic movie adds a new Sonic character to alignment. This time, the daring Shadow The Hedgehog joins the cast. perfectly With the voice of the equally impressive Keanu Reeves. He has a wonderfully tortured background story and there is something deeply lovely to have a four -foot hell with red reflexes talking about his deep pain and anguish. The rest of the gang (Knuckles, Tails and Sonic itself) are as bright as ever. Jim Carrey also performs an impressive performance with himself while placing Dr. Ivo and Gerald Robotnik. It's simply a wonderful moment!
Sonic the hedgehog 3 It is still a quick race for the franchise scrap deposit. There is some Marvel -style abbreviated mythology (which includes, multiple credits scenes), a mission intrusion sequence: impossible with a discount that makes an obvious joke of Tom Cruise, and all those cartoon jokes of Dreamworks of third level that come from Sonic himself. James Marsden and Tika Sumpter, as Human Guardians of Sonic and company, still have ungrateful jobs to do, and the way in which the film unnecessarily incorporates members of the previous human cast is, in the best case, confusing. In fact, what the newcomer Krysten Ritter is doing in this film does not seem clear, even (or especially) for the filmmakers. But director Jeff Fowler, who also made the first two films, has further simplified the rhythm, and the film happens flying in a silly and pleasant stain.

Gender: Gothic terror
Execution time: 2h 12m
Director: Robert Eggers
Cast: Bill Skarsgård, Nicholas Hault, Lily-Rose Depp
Director Robert Eggers (The witch) He returns with his most ambitious project to date: a new version of FW Murnau's vampiric horror film, unofficially based on Bram Stoker's novel. Dracula. Set in Wisburg, Germany, in 1830, the Eggers film focused on Ellen (Lily-Rose Depp) and Thomas Hutter (Nicholas Hault), a newly married couple who is trapped in the machinations of Count Orlok (Bill Skarsgård ), A lonely and vampire nobleman who wants Ellen.
However, the key creative pact in any Dracula film is between the director and his vampire. (E. Elias Merhige explored this joke theme in his 2000 film The shadow of the vampirein which John Malkovich plays a fictional Murnau, with Dafoe as a version of Schreck that he could actually be A vampire.) This is the only area where Eggers and Skarsgård diverge markedly from the original film. The Skarsgård Orlok is still old, similar to a body and with numerous claws. But where Schreck was twisted and withered, Skarsgård's version is imposing and hairy, wrapped in skins, with a long mustache and a barbarian appearance. Even his imminent physical is eclipsed by his voice; Skarsgård speaks scandalously slow with a cartoon accent of Transylvania, spinning its r for days, and the sound mixture gives each of its expressions a subsonic and rumbing resonance that makes the theater vibrate. it's a choice; It may be too much for some, but it couldn't be more Gothic.
