animation: The Book of Life

Jan 15, 2015 15:56

Soooo... I recently went to watch The Book of Life. Though it didn't appeal to me at first, well my friend really wanted to see it so we went and i must say, i was surprised. It was as bad as i thought, even if the chara design took some used to.

The story was simple and kind of cheesy but well executed. Overall, i enjoyed it^^
The songs fitted nicely with the story (when do they not) but i don't know why it particularly touched me (the Apology song to the bull was moving).

So here we go:
THE BOOK OF LIFE, a vibrant fantasy-adventure, tells the legend of Manolo, a conflicted hero and dreamer who sets off on an epic quest through magical, mythical and wondrous worlds in order to rescue his one true love and defend his village.

See what i mean by need to get used to the chara design?

Mozaya Points: 13/20
Not a bad movie, especially since i really didn't have any expectations, nice OST.

And here the link to the Apology Song that i really loved:
