Movie Reviews of Cool World
Movie Review: Needs more appreciation!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
In my opinion, this movie is vastly underrated! One problem is that people want to compare it to Who Framed Roger Rabbit since they both make use of live action and animation. This movie, however, is not aimed toward children. In fact, the language, violence and adult situations make it unsuitable for children.What it DOES offer the grownup crowd, however, is amazing animation sequences along with top of the line actor "live" sequences. (We're talking Brad Pitt, Kim Basinger and Gabriel Byrne here.) This movie begs to be watched over and over again as the animation sequences are so intricate you see new things happening on screen everytime you watch. The animation/live action crossovers are also compelling.
My suggestion, when first watching this movie, is to go into it expecting something different. In my opinion, it's well worth the time.
Movie Review: My Favorite Movie
Summary: 4 Stars
I'd been looking all over the place for this movie because i have love'd it ever since i was a kid. so i finally gave up looking for it in the stores and i found it on Amazon and ordered it.
The movie over all is really good and funny. It has some similarities to Who Framed Roger Rabbit, which i also love, but Cool World is no kids movie. It's like the Simpsons in the fact that even though it is animated doesn't mean that it is for children.
Movie Review: Frightening and disturbing
Summary: 3 Stars
You cannot judge this movie by conventional standards. This is not meant to be Roger Rabbit for adults, it is not meant to be Citizen Kane, it is not meant to be Wierd Science. It is meant to be a completely different genre all by itself, and must be judged as such.This movie scares me. Not in the sense of "it scares me that anyone would make a movie this bad," but more in the Blair Witch Project kind of scary. What it lacks in plot and scripting, it makes up for in atmosphere and creepiness. The "wooden nickels" scene is an example of this; some guy throws a handful of wooden nickels to some innocent kids, and the nickels proceed to open their mouths and devour the unsuspecting children. It's this kind of random, disturbing event that makes Cool World worth watching. This is a wierd movie for when you need to go on a major acid trip but you don't want to actually put drugs into your system. It is the movie to watch when you want to leave all reality and morality behind and think about what could happen if we could interact with cartoon characters in a cartoon world that, unlike the "toontown" of Roger Rabbit, resembles our own world much more closely than we'd like to think.
Movie Review: MINTY FRESH.........
Summary: 3 Stars
ITS THE CLOSE-UPS that get you - not too flattering for 1992 - lots of unfiltered frown-lines, etc. BUT overall quite a neat little plot ~ talk about being abducted!
BRAD PITT ends up on - so to speak - the other side of the mirror in a sinister but very real 'toon world [akin to 'Roger Rabbit' but darker ... and these guys are not quite three-dimensional for good reasons].
KIM BASINGER is the 'toon who wants out - wants the real world, and Gabriel Byrne is the 'toonist - caught in between the chaos.
QUITE good stuff - but rather on the dark side - would like more of these ventures .... just a pity about Kim's odd little costume in the real world - the skirt didn't quite translate correctly [or was there an underskirt???] - oddly jarring.
