It was very pretty but it's the same mismatched pair roadtrip movie Pixar keep making and the 'twists' were boring and predictable. It suffered the same problem that Moana had in that it ignored the 'show, don't tell' rule and kept drilling in "THIS IS OUR CULTURE, LOOK LOOK" but whereas Moana was 15 minutes of CONSIDER THE COCONUT at the start before concentrating on the story, Coco drilled it in from start to finish.
Book of the Dead may not have had visuals as good but it at least had a more interesting narrative.

Characters were the weakest point of the movie by far. Not one good character in there except perhaps the grand-grand-mother (what was her name? who knows)

How did this get 82% critic score on RT?

I liked the movie a lot but I'm biased as a mexican person. They definitely laid it on thick still with the "DAE CHANCLA? LOL XD". Definitely some story/rules-of-the-universe problems as pointed out by
"Hey I'm a 10 year old mexican kid that just came back from the land of the dead where this famous singer I thought was my great grandfather admitted to me that he killed my real greatgrandfather"
The real world immediately starts immediately vandalizing everything about the singer at the end of the movie based on this kid's word when all he did was pass out for a few hours.
but between the very beginning of "forced culture enrichment for the whites" and the end very loosely tying up the story, the movie had a very solid and enjoyable 1hr and 15 mins in the middle. It was visually pretty and had a lot of detailed poured in. 7/10

He used the great grandmother's letters has evidence that the singer was a phony

Imagine it if turns out the Beatles tunes accredited to them were stolen from someone who died. They would still be considered legendary, you'd just get the occasional documentary talking about the 'dark secret'.

>it's the same mismatched pair roadtrip movie Pixar keep making and the 'twists' were boring No, it is literally the exact same spic story of Book of the Dead retold with more render machines.
>A boy >A guitar >A spirit guide >Family is everything even though they rejected your talents and well being from the very beginning >somebody died and is angry about it >everyone is happy at the end... Except that one bad guy who killed the somebody died
This movie was a solid waste of money on everyone's part. Mexico needs to go back home.
Daniel James
Stealing myths to retell is the the disney method. Cinderella, lion king, aladdin. It's not mexico specific.
Jack Russell
No one gave a fuck that Nu-Pixer ripped off another old movie, this time Tim Burton's Corpse Bride but changed the setting and characters to pander to spics so they would get good boy points from wetbacks and libtards.
Luis Gomez
You forgot >A god and goddess fucking with people out of love

Cameron Young
i cried like a man child watching this
Ian Rivera
It's not pretty, it's as colorful as an acid trip. Toy Story 1 still looks better than this
Jace Jenkins
If you think toy story 1 looks better you're just delusional
Charles Sullivan
>This was just... Forgotten/confused with the other children's day of the dead movie
Samuel Parker
I cant tell if i like it because I haven't watched the Latin dub and the original "Chicano" english is annoying as fuck
Xavier Rogers
You missed the point. It was told a thousand times the exact same way. It has nothing to do with stealing a myth. It has to do with taking the same script, changing the title, copy writing a new movie, and then funding its production.
Easton Peterson
Not Coco.
Samuel Howard
I really enjoyed it. It was a very comfy movie.
Of course the cultural thing stayed relevant, the plot of the revolves around the idea of people remembering the dead.
