I really should know better than to listen to Reddit on movie recommendations.

Certainly not for everyone. Avoid if you don't want to watch a full length shit post.

A silent live action cartoon in black and white. I didn't expect to like this as much as I did, i'm not even sure if i've ever watched a silent movie before but this was genius. Slapstick comedy at it's best! The comedy is a mix of lightheartedness and mildly disturbing, love the mix and the contrast. I think this will appeal to horror fans in a way (especially those last 20 minutes). I was somehow invested in the story and characters throughout the 2h runtime which is a great exploit for a silent film. Everything is done on a low budget including the sets and costumes and effects but the look of everything is just perfect, it's charming and plays well with the comedy. All the drawings, little animations, puppets, collage, fast motion, and the visuals with the black and white are so creative. Very fitting musical choices. Great over-the-top physical acting. The whole movie was peak but my favorite parts were the scenes with the rabbits (so funny) and the whole third act was fun as hell I was glued to the screen. So refreshing, I want more movies like this please!

Lots of fun! This is how you update the silent film for modern audiences. It has a clear love for the films of that era, but the editing, pacing, sound and humour have a much more contemporary feel to it. The storytelling and characters, which is always the most challenging part with a film like this, are great. It really helps that the actors are all constantly aware of how their exaggerated performances have to be the main building blocks, therefore it has no awkward issues in regards to motivation, tone or characters arcs. I also really enjoyed the creative visual choices, there’s not a single moment where the inherent cheapness works against it. It’s just a very charming film with a lot of memorable gags throughout. Its appeal seem niche, but it has a genuine crowdpleasing quality to it. Come to think of it, maybe Hollywood should try something like this again instead of the meta, self referential comedies we’ve all become tired of. 8/10

enjoyable and original. absurd and funny. it’s just a little too long for the simple story it tells.
