With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- A natural pick for animation lovers and people who like stories about real, flawed people. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Paced for all ages, at 11 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
- What might put you off
- It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
An old bear goes out every day to a busy street corner. Through a tin marionette theater of his own making, the bear will tell us his life story.
