Rango - A Strange Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (24 January 2020)

Rango isn't like normal animated children's films, it doesn't have the perfect looking animals, the bright and beautiful colour palette of something like Zootopia, Rango feels more like a normal spaghetti western, but with animals instead of humans.
When I watch this movie, I'm mesmerized by the sheer amount of effort and time that went into it. The animators did a wonderful job at giving every character a unique look and feel.
The characters within the movie are great, Rango is obviously the stand out, I find a few animated children's movies funny but not as much as Rango, thanks to a wonderful performance from Johnny Depp.
But the most amazing, inventive thing this movie did was stand out from the crowd, not follow it.
Also, the Ride of the Valkyries scene going through the canon is honestly one of the greatest moments I have ever seen in an animated film.
