Fantastic Planet
- LejlaSeptember 24, 2026So wonderfully weird. Beautifully animated, voice acted, thought over and drawn film, the detail is immaculate. Soundtrack is phenomenal. I loved how creative & well thought out the entire world was, such an intricate film. I absolutely adore this movie. Really entertaining and immersive, it felt like I was on another planet, a fantastic planet.
- Rowan KrzysiakFebruary 12, 2025There's probably a lifetime's worth of inspiration in this one for some. Possibly genius, possibly completely loopy but 100% committed to whatever it is...or was. Deeply, beautifully, painfully alien.
- Roderick WilliamsAugust 23, 2026"Exhibit C" itself relies on the Billy Stewart soul sample rather than the Fantastic Planet OST. Said Gemini with a few citations.
- Stephen MotzAugust 22, 2025Trippy but interesting
- Thomas KearneyAugust 6, 2026What the f*** did I just witness that is scary more scary than dying alone
- darin amadorJune 29, 2026Very trippy, very nice
- cloudsrivalFebruary 6, 2026I genuinely dislike this movie, but I respect its creativity. And I agree with the message of animal cruelty being wrong. However, the point is belabored in sophomoric ways. The exposition of "humans as pets" is VERY heavy-handed, and depicting ALL Draag (alien owners) as cruel is both offensive and misses the point of fostering animals in real life. Why do the Om use lesser animals as expendable if the premise is that the Draag unjustly torture Om in the same way? Hypocrisy. The movie is not pleasing, nor fun to watch, nor even to listen to. Someone took SERIOUS drugs to concoct this story and grotesque imagery, most of it is nightmarish--this coming from a lover of horror movies. Scenes where one can derive no allegory are unnecessary, with acid jazz and uncomfortable stylizations aiding the assault on your senses. All the tech jargon creates more feelings of illness as you continue to watch even the normal scenes. The creativity presented far exceeds anything a lucid mind could envision. It gets credit for that. But the movie itself should only be viewed as an experience, not as anything else. Run from people who list this acid trip as one of their favorites.
