Coco 2017

This is a tad predictable, and it probably should’ve gone a little deeper with the legacy theme, but it’s beautiful and emotional. Very well developed characters, the look and atmosphere of this world are amazing, and the comedy is funny and creative. I love the quirks that are worked into the design of the skeletons in particular. One of the weirder Pixar movies for sure, but the risks definitely pay-off if you ask me. However, it does use that typical Pixar trope where the main protagonists find themselves into an argument, split up, and then reconnect a couple of scenes later. Not a major complaint but I’d wish they’d stop doing that.

8/10
