Jan 25, 2022I was referred to this movie by my sis after watching Encanto (whose plot we both agreed was lacking). We both found the plot of Coco much more satisfying, however I still feel that the climax of Coco still didn't involve as much of an "A-ha!" moment for Miguel as I would have wanted. Also, the dialogue and songs in Coco were not as innovative or entertaining as those in Encanto (but it would be unreasonable to expect such). But anyway, I still enjoyed it thoroughly and cried my eyes out at the ending scene, so two thumbs up from me.Letitia L Super Reviewer

Aug 24, 2020A touching and sweet film about how important family is and how you must always follow your dreams. Beautifully Drawn and written. It's visually stunning and the story made me laugh and tear up. The day of the dead theme turned me off from watching but it is a must see with great vocal work and direction. One of Pixar's best in recent years. 08-22-2020Christopher O Super Reviewer

Mar 25, 2020Pixar had lost its way with the endless sequels, but Coco is an incredible return to original storytelling. When I recommend Pixar to family and friends, it's because of films like Coco. Coco has heart, and if you look at all the classic Pixar and animated films for that matter, there's no trade off for character and story. I was shocked at how emotional the film is towards the end, that Remember Me moment was well earned. I dragged my feet with this film and should've watched it earlier, but I wasn't convinced Pixar was out of the funk. Cars and endless sequels taint the brand, obviously not talking about Toy Story, that series has maintained the core elements from the beginning. The film is respectful and overall fun. 24/03/2020Brendan N Super Reviewer

Jun 17, 2018Pixar...what else can you say? They can tell a story as well as anyone ever, and better than most. This is a moving film with lots to say about family and music. Of course I loved it. Of course I could tell where it was probably going. I didn't care. I laughed and cried. It reminded me of my mother-in-law Ruth at one point. I connected with it completely. Great movie.Morris N Super Reviewer
