Another Delightful and Original Pixar Film That Really Shines

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2018)

Knowing me, I am a huge Pixar fan, I love most of their films, they have originality, clever writing, beautiful animation and characters that we can all relate to, I know Pixar may be overrated but they still do great stuff... well most great stuff, not every one of their films are great, despite I like the first and third Cars they are not the best from Pixar, Monsters University was okay, Brave was nothing special, the Good Dinosaur was really underrated and Cars 2 is okay despite being the worst Pixar film.
But with all that said after Cars 3, there was going to be another Pixar film by the name of Coco, which from what I can tell from the teaser, It looked almost like the Book of Life, same concept, same style of animation and seems to have the same plot, while it did look good and funny, I wasn't too sure if It would work as a original film since everyone has said It's similar to the Book of Life, now the Book of Life Is Fantastic, It has great animation, good comedy and lots of great music, along with some great voice acting, but after seeing Coco on a early release (on the 13th and 14th of January however i saw It on he 13th) but It's actually released today January 19th here In the UK, but I just saw It earlier anyway, I saw the film and holy crap Pixar has still got it!, I loved every minute of the movie, In fact It's so wonderful I stood up and clapped by the end of the movie because of how delightful and colourful It Is!.
The plot may not be anything special but how Pixar executed It was excellent!, It takes you on a incredible journey and It moves the plot a lot unlike most animated films nowadays where It drags on and on like not Coco, Coco does It In a unique and clever way that It has a couple of twists I did not see coming which made the movie so refreshing to bring some twists and secrets that are surprisingly and really touching, the film of course like all of Pixar's films are genuinely funny, while also having a couple of clever jokes as well, but what most Pixar films have that will change your mood is emotion, holy crap this movie is very sad, there are moments you will cry to they are that powerful, also the world of Land of the Dead in how it works is quite interesting, like if you don't get remembered by anyone by memory or picture, you'll die being forgotten which is interesting and really touching too, so yeah the plot has originality, humour, heart, lots of clever material and the film's main theme of family brings the humanity and relatable elements to a whole new level and works well in the plot, make this one of the Pixar's best writing.
The animation is well... what can you say about Pixar's animation, they always put effort in their animation and this animation doesn't disappoint, It's looks breathtaking, really colourful which made me happy since I love colourful animation and the human characters have this cartoony but down-to-earth style to it that makes them look real, the skeletons are more comedic but their designs are great and really creative with their body parts from arms to legs, even the head, the textures are fantastic make It almost look like a live-action Film, from the texture of the Miguel's hometown, to Dante's fur, to the character's looks and the Land of Dead looking like a real place for celebration, Pixar has really out done themselves with the animation and I'm happy to say It's one of the best looking animated films of all time.
The characters are Likeable, relatable, funny and well developed, My favourite is Héctor, he's now one of my favourite Supporting characters from Pixar along with Cruz (Cars 3), Hank (Finding Dory), Anger (Inside Out), Dug (Up), Dory (Finding Nemo) and Edna Mode (the Incredibles), he's funny, relatable and has a touching backstory which I will not spoil but it is really touching, Miguel Is also a great main character, heck he's not kid character I didn't find annoying, I found him endearing, funny, likeable and actually kind of cute, Dante is a funny character too, despite he fact he doesn't do much but physical comedy, but he is funny and does play a supporting part in the film, Ernesto De La Cruz plays a key part in this movie, he's the reason Miguel went to the land of the dead, he does come off as musician that has a lot of passion but without spoilers, he's role later on may come off as obvious but it's still a really good twist, the other characters like Miguel's relatives like his Mum, Dad, Mama Coco, his grandmother and his relatives from the Land of the Dead all have personalties and a part to shine to help Miguel on his journey and his decision of wanting to do something he loves or do what the family is doing, these characters don't come off as a generic or annoying, they have part to play, they are all funny, unforgettable relatable and have strong emotion and that's what make them really strong.
Oh and one more thing, the music is wonderful, not just Michael Giacchino's score which is also amazing but the songs like Remember Me, Un Loco Coco and The World Es Mi Familia are all wonderful and they all have a meaning behind each and every one of them, which makes them stand out, also keep in mind Coco is not a musical, It just have songs that have a purpose, but none the less the music is fantastic.
So that's Coco, honestly I don't know what else to say, I have no issues with the films, It's that perfect, the plot's original, the concept is very interesting, the animation is one of the Pixar's best, the characters represent who we are today making them unforgettable and the music is phenomenal, I know people has already seen it since it came out before us but for those who are going to see It today, go see It, you'll love it to bits and the children will have fun with it as well, this movie will also have a moral about which kids will hopefully get by the end of the movie and learn from it.
I know It's cliches but this Is one of Pixar's best films In recent along with Inside Out, Finding Nemo/Dory, Wall-E and Ratatouille, so go see It when you can.
I'm happy to give Coco a 10/10.
