0:03
uh Flo is an animated film The Animation
0:07
is in the style of kind of it feels kind
0:10
of like a video game in a
0:12
sense uh and it's a story of a
0:17
cat no none of the cats or none of the
0:20
characters in this movie there's cats
0:23
there's lemur there's uh
0:28
Birds very ious kinds of
0:32
dogs there's all sorts of animals in
0:35
this but main focus is a cat and this
0:38
cat is trying to survive it's a story of
0:42
survival this world is being
0:45
flooded and it is absolutely gorgeous
0:51
beautiful it's relaxing it's never
0:56
boring it's Relentless in its action and
0:58
I won't say this movie isn't for kids
1:01
kids will love it but adults I find a
1:04
lot of films that are targeted solely at
1:07
children to kind of be boring this one
1:15
stunning with uh ocean views and this
1:19
and there's all kinds of mysterious
1:21
things about this world there are no
1:23
people in this world but there
1:26
are things left behind by civilization
1:31
boats there are giant structures of cats
1:36
why are they there and I'll just tell
1:38
you and I actually love this it's never
1:42
explained nothing is explained in this
1:45
film is a world without people where a
1:48
group of animals are trying to survive
1:52
odds they find themselves in a boat
1:56
together one cat a bunch of dogs a
2:01
bird and they're all trying to survive
2:03
they're sort of human artifacts are
2:06
they're surrounded by it but nothing is
2:08
ever explained and it's really weird in
2:10
the beginning we see a boat in a tree
2:12
we're like what is that like what is
2:14
going on we see a giant structure of a
2:16
carved like a giant huge statue of a cat
2:20
and everything that happens in this it's
2:23
so compelling it's beautiful there's a
2:27
whale uh and all these animal kind of
2:30
work together to survive and I I'll say
2:36
speak not a word is spoken dogs bark and
2:41
cats meow animals make animal noises but
2:44
we know exactly what they're feeling
2:49
desperation uh you know
2:52
love and it's a quick 85 minute movie
2:56
that is absolutely it's like it's like
2:59
uh I don't know it's it's just I found
3:01
it very relaxing with like the views of
3:05
and the music is phenomenal it's I don't
3:08
know how to describe it it's like a tone
3:10
pone right we're just like you know it
3:16
feelings absolutely loved it highly
3:20
recommended probably uh one of my
3:23
favorite animated movies of the year
3:25
just because it doesn't fall into traps
3:28
it's a film from France too which makes
3:30
a lot of sense I like uh the French are
3:34
strange in some ways in all the best
3:37
ways one of my favorite animated movies
3:39
is by a director named Renee Lalo it was
3:42
a film called Fantastic Planet or Le
3:45
Planet Sage that movie came out in the
3:48
70s brilliant film science fiction and
3:51
this is a French film that crosses all
3:54
boundaries age whatever kids will love
3:57
it adults will love it I was at a
3:59
screening before I saw Wicked for a
4:00
second time I showed up early I saw this
4:04
o'clock and was in a room with a bunch
4:06
of adults watching an animated film and
4:08
we were all like just delighted so
4:12
strong recommendation I think Allan you
4:14
would really like it and I want this
4:16
kind of it's refreshing to see something
4:20
that is a a genre people love they like
4:23
animated movies with animals you know
4:27
that's very popular but does it always
4:29
have to be the same I mean I saw the
4:33
too uh I've seen a lot of trailers for
4:36
there's a new zootopia or something was
4:38
it did they make zootopia too I don't
4:40
even know they're making it but uh
4:42
that's coming I'm saying funny animal
4:45
movies tend to follow all the tropes
4:48
this does not at all it's 97% on Rotten
4:54
Tomatoes eight out of 10 on IMDb I give
4:56
it at least an eight out of 10 strong
5:00
uh if you need a sort of just departure
5:03
from you know the kind of movies because
5:07
a lot of animated movies with animals or
5:09
characters they just hit certain beats
5:11
this totally is completely different and
5:14
I I can't wait to see it again actually
5:16
so strong recommend for
5:20
flow so is this uh is it so I'm looking
5:24
at the poster it looks like uh anime
5:27
kind of or is it 3D is it 2D
5:30
3D it's not anime it's sort of its own
5:35
like a highly rendered game it just
5:38
looks it reminds me of the
5:40
game it reminds me of the game missed oh
5:44
okay you play the game Miss where it's
5:46
like everything is beautiful but you
5:49
nothing is explained that's what I love
5:52
about this there's a Myster it doesn't
5:54
try to explain what planet this is is it
5:57
even earth like like there's a bunch of
6:01
animals trying to survive and they work
6:07
odds but it's not like for kids you know
6:12
are you say because it's going to be
6:13
boring for kids or no not at all not the
6:17
least kids will love it the subject
6:21
matter what's that are you saying then
6:24
it's a subject matter that they're not
6:25
gonna that's not for kids no it's it's
6:30
it's not focused only on kids it's a
6:32
film adults will enjoy okay
