Gutierrez Comes a Breathtaking Animated Comedy with a Dazzling Visual Style Unlike Anything You've Seen Before. Torn Between the Expectations of His Family and the Desires of His Heart, a Young Man Named Manolo Sets Off on An Epic Quest, That Spans Three Spectacular Worlds, in Order to Reunite with His One True Love and Defend His Village. Not Your Ordinary Fairy Tale, the Book of Life Is a Wondrous Fantasy-Adventure Filled with Magic, Music and Fun! Review: Glorious, daring, and unforgettable - This is a great movie for so many reasons. First of all, it’s visually stunning in a way that most animated movies rarely attempt. Secondly, it’s just wacky and twisted enough to rise above the typical animated movie, something Pixar knows well, but in this case, the audience is decidedly older (hence the PG rating and the descriptive warning within the rating). Yes, there are adult themes of death, albeit in the fanciful sugar-skull-centric fashion of the glorious holiday Día de los Muertos. Nonetheless, this is not a movie for very young children but, I do think that tweens and up will find it captivating, and it’s good to see that the people who put this surreal dream together were up for making an animated movie that wasn’t so predictable and hackneyed. Lastly, it walks a delicate line between reverence and satire, dark comedy and enchanting romance, Guillermo de Toro and Walt Disney. Not bad for a “cartoon.” Part Rango, part Ren and Stimpy, and part folklore, The Book of Life is a sly, eye-popping, tongue-in-cheek, whimsical tale of love, friendship, and tradition that is a treat for the mind, the heart, and the imagination. While I’d like to see some improvements made in tightening things up, a more involved storyline, and a better sense of music, The Book of Life is still a gorgeous movie that joyfully shatters the Disney/Pixar bubble. Review: You Need to See This Movie! - Jorge Gutierrez (and his wife Sandra) are two of my favorite artists, so my review may be a bit biased. In any case, this is a beautiful movie that is worth seeing. Some people say it is boring or morbid, but it's really neither of these things. Perhaps for someone who can't sit still it would take some work to really catch everything that's going on, but this movie is certainly far from boring. As for morbid, this story handles the theme of the underworld just like The Corpse Bride or an array of childern's Halloween movies and it isn't gory, gross, or really morbid at all. In fact, the underworld is shown as a colorful, happy place. This is a good story to expose your child (and yourself) to how death and the underworld are viewed in different cultures and to learn about the customs. I can't say there are any negatives to the story other than it moves a bit fast, so if you aren't paying attention to it, you can miss a lot of important information, and there is a sort of mash-up mix happening between Spanish(the bull fighting theme) and Mexican cultures. If you aren't familiar with Jorge Gutierrez's art style (like his previous show El Tigre) the art can be a bit confusing, but once you become used to this created world then you can appreciate the beauty in design. This is a wonderful, colorful, beautiful story which also includes some of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard in an animated feature. Definitely worth watching, multiple times even. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Channing Tatum, Christina Applegate, Diego Luna, Ron Perlman, Zoe Saldana | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 17,512 Reviews | | Format | Animated, Color, DTS Surround Sound, Dolby, Dubbed, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen | | Genre | Animation | | Language | English | | Runtime | 1 hour and 35 minutes | ## Product Details - **Genre:** Animation - **Format:** Animated, Color, DTS Surround Sound, Dolby, Dubbed, Multiple Formats, NTSC, Subtitled, Widescreen - **Contributor:** Channing Tatum, Christina Applegate, Diego Luna, Ron Perlman, Zoe Saldana - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 35 minutes ## Images ![- The Book of Life - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91vwDVfhnSL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Glorious, daring, and unforgettable *by S***E on July 4, 2015* This is a great movie for so many reasons.
