Movie Reviews of MirrorMask [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: A Visionary Tour-de-force on Blu-Ray
Summary: 5 Stars

I wasn't sure what to say about Mirrormask until I had seen it a 2nd time, several months after I bought it. But now it is very clearly a work of visionary power. That power is seen thru the limits of a $3 million dollar budget, yet its the non-essentials that get filtered out. Its disconcerting on first viewing because we're used to the non-essentials. This is a rarity in modern times - A truly lean, well-made film.

If you've heard the criticisms of the plot or pacing, let me just say plot and pacing come thru as vividly as the visuals. Ditto for the musical score. And I think those criticisms are rooted in the fact this movie is suitable for kids. Think of it as a litmus test: How long can critics stay interested in something that has no violence and no sex? For myself, the characters are marvelous, and its hard to understand why we don't see these actresses and actors in more roles.

This is also one of those movies where the Making-Of doubles the value of the movie. Even having worked on the movie, people grasp for words to describe it. Commercialism is easy to describe. Creativity is hard to describe. What do you say when a world springs from someone's mind? Care to step inside?

Ultimately, I have to state the measure of Mirrormask's originality: Its like nothing I've ever seen or heard.
