Darling, no one is really small

Voltaire once wrote a story of a giant and a dwarf man.

When the giant saw the villain, he exclaimed in admiration: God, you are so small, so small that you can only hold wisdom!
The villain sighed and said: No, I swear to you, my kind has enough strength to go thousands of miles away to destroy their own kind!

Off topic. But in a way, how different is it for those of us who live on a small asteroid in the universe and anonymous people who live in the dust?

This animation, which is neither Disney nor DreamWorks, is somewhat lonely, but its quality is very impressive, once again confirming the creed that animation content is second in technology. If there is no comparable technology, there must be a better idea. In addition to the two annual animation main courses, Blue Sky Studio offers another side dish with a unique style.

What an interesting idea of ​​a group of people who live in the dust but don't know it and a sensitive elephant who hears the dust and speaks. What is commendable is that the studio did not turn it into an esoteric non-mainstream, the plot is straightforward and smooth, the tone is cheerful and the picture is beautiful, except that the villain is a little bit facialized (I love that vulture with Italian or North African accent), nothing. Big problem. The most lovely thing is the mayor's son's observatory, those ingenious mechanisms and extraordinary imagination, without these, I believe the film will be much inferior.

Loving animation is a journey of discovery. The threshold for animation is getting lower. Be careful, Disney and DreamWorks are catching up with many third parties.
