Arco is stunning sci-fi with shades of Moebius and Miyazaki

The best part of going to the Film Festival is to find something new. Certainly, it is a great thing to discover that the films that you are in fact are good – have enjoyed the means of luck so far Exit 8and There is no other optionAnd A dead man woke up – But it is much more exciting to be surprised by something when you don’t have any expectations.

This is what happened to me when I entered a theater to see ArcoA very wonderful moving movie from the director Ugo Bienvenu, on the fourth day of the Toronto International Film Festival. For those who are obsessed with animation there, the intersection is similar Zabalon prevails and Time mastersWith a hint from The castle is in the sky. Yes, it seems good.

Elsewhere, I saw two features that are now crowded of “films about the splendor of the wealthy”. Someone tried to explore the topic through jokes, and the other is a mixture of humor and very strange drama. None of them was completely successful, but at least Keanu REEVES was as an angel.

A time travel story that also revolves around the plight of the earth, the first thing you will notice is just an incredible extent Arco Look. It contains science fiction energy in Mobius and the natural beauty of Hayao Miyazaki, which is collected in a unique future where rainbows are actually the paths of passengers in flying time. Things are going well when a boy from the distant future ends in time to 2075, and she befriends a little girl and her robot, who is trying to help send him home. Arco It is much more than its good appearance, because the story of time mobility is full of the heart (and sadness), along with the real anxiety of the future of the planet. But well seems to be stable help.

This movie only gets jokes. It is a very direct mix of Friday is terrible Which is Wonderful lifeWhere Angel Gabrielle (Keanu Reeves) tries to help the Gig Arj worker (Aziz Ansari, who is also directed), sees his life has some meaning by switching places with Bro (Seth Rogen). The problem is that Arj does not want to return because, well, money an act Solve all his problems. This creates a lot of very funny situations, especially for Reeves, which is a wonderful heavenly monarch that becomes obsessed with taku and chicken nuggets. But the film is struggling to find a lot to say about the economy of the party or the medium gap between the rich and the poor, and instead, it coincides with some hollow.

in the beginning, Healthy Feel like a sarcastic black comedy. The wealthy and famous gather on a remote island to attend a charitable change of climate change with the description line “Make the Earth cold again”, and there is a handful of laughter on the uselessness of everything, especially when a washed actor (Chris Evans) gives an illogical speech that means everyone’s release. But then, a group of military activists resembles worship takes everyone hostage, believing that the only way to prevent extinction is through human sacrifice. The film drops its sense of humor and becomes a strange and boring work drama, despite its stellar strength-joins Evans Salma Hayek Pinol, Anya Taylor Joy, and Charlie XCX-in order to stay very interesting.
