Not just brilliant - beautiful

Rating: 9/10 (27 December 2017)

Pixar has always been humorous and insightful and innovative...but I'm not sure their previous stories have ever been this breathtakingly beautiful. There were elements of other movies mixed in (Back To The Future, Home Alone), but it was something special - a touching tribute to family and Mexico and music. Not only were the visuals amazing, but we could literally hear people around us whispering, "That's just like my grandma!" Every character worked, and every part of the story fit into a beautiful portrait of Dia De Los Muertos. I cannot wait to see it again.
