I’m not even going to pretend that I get this movie. It’s a stop-animation piece about the inhabitants of an apartment building. For me, the best moments of the work involved the very real moments every day life. These received shading and weight that made them drama and took them beyond what they were ostentatiously depicting.
I was thoroughly engaged in the opening scene, which was between a panhandler and a businessman. I also especially liked the section about a former famous magician getting his stuff repo-ed away.
But, the movie swings wildly into the fantastic, and I did not enjoy those choices at all.
At the end of it all, I don’t know what the filmmaker’s intent was, and I am pretty confused with the overall experience.
