Elio (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): A boy’s little cosmic adventure
“Elio”, the latest animation feature film from Pixar Animation Studios, is a modest but sweet SF fantasy tale which often amused me for good reasons. While it will be fairly enjoyable to young audiences thanks to its bright and colorful … Continue reading
Predator: Killer of Killers (2025) ☆☆☆(3/4): Three Predator tales
Animation feature film “Predator: Killer of Killers”, which was released on Disney+ early in this month, tries an interesting variation on what we have seen from “Predator” (1987) and several films from its franchise. This time, we get three different … Continue reading

Akira (1988) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): A chaotically striking Japanese animation film
I must confess that I scratched my head more than once when I watched Katsuhiro Otomo’s 1988 animation feature film “Akira” for the first time in 2010, which happens to be released in South Korean theaters yesterday. Yes, this is … Continue reading
Exorcism Chronicles: The Beginning (2024) ☆☆1/2(2.5/4): The passable first chapter
South Korean animation film “Exorcism Chronicle” is a modest genre piece simply doing some warm-up exercise for whatever may follow next. Probably because I remember too well the first entry of the short story series it is based on, there … Continue reading
Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl (2024) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): They’re back!
Animation feature film “Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl”, the latest work from Aardman Animations which will be released on Netflix on next Friday in South Korea, is as funny and delightful as we can possibly expect. Although it may … Continue reading
Tokyo Godfathers (2003) ☆☆☆1/2(3.5/4): Three homeless people and a baby
It did not take much time for me to get engaged and then entertained more in Satoshi Kon’s animation feature film “Tokyo Godfathers”, which is still a charmingly quirky holiday genre mix even after more than 20 years. Mainly revolving … Continue reading
