ChicRawIdol A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Timothy McKann When I first started watching this film On Demand,I gotta say this film really is a masterpiece,but when I watched it again one more time,It was time for me to buy it. But when I bought the movie on DVD. It was inspiring. I have to say that the animation in this movie was excellent,and it had beautiful music. I have to say that the people who made this movie have done a pretty good job. But what this film really teaches us,is that all things have a purpose and we have to accomplish that goal. And that is why God created us, because we have to make that goal possible. But however,this film is truly a masterpiece. So if want to see something good,then this is perfect for your collection,and keep it for generations to come,and show it to your children,and their children. You will see what I mean.

shanyuan_shi Before even reading the other reviews, I realised that this is one of those love-it-or-hate-it films. In fact, I found it slightly strange and weird at the start, but, as you keep watching, it becomes very absorbing. Deeper meanings aside, this film is fantastic, it is a mixture of very good animation with an intriguing plot line. I found the music especially good as it had a similar tune throughout but a different mood for every different scene/season. Some people say this film is advocating god, but in my opinion, the only thing the film is stressing about is about the beauty and preciousness of life and nature, no matter how seemingly unimportant it is (hence using the doggy poo as the main character and not a tree, for example). All in all, it is a magnificent film which once seen, will inspire you to go outside and stare at trees for a while. Well worth watching.

bdoty The animation quality of this feature is sub-par at best. That being said this low quality animation is the highlight of the film as it is at least passable and not complete junk like the story. The story has a strong focus on God and his role in the life of poo. I would think that this would be offensive to both the religious and non-religious types. I can understand how some people might think this film was a good to introduce your children to the idea of death and how to deal with it, but there is a huge problem with that notion. THE FILM IS ABOUT POO. Your children won't be able to stop laughing. If anything this film will belittle death and warp your children's notions of it. If you, as a parent, cannot confront your child about this subject matter, please do not use this film to do so. Find another, more able minded, adult to do it. This way your child will grow up normally and without the mental distress this film would have caused them. Just my 2 cents.

looshkin One of the most emotionally involving, deep, thoughtful films I have ever seen. And it's about poo! Using claymation this minor animation masterpiece tells the tale of a lil' poo all alone in the world questioning it's existence, 'Doggy Poo' creates a realistic character in poo making one genuinely care. The voice talent also is to be applauded; Poo is voiced by a child that you won't hate after mere minutes! After being dropped by a Jack Russell the lil' fella meets various characters passing him along the way; all who have found their place in life. Poo then struggles to see why he's here. If you've any interest in animation you really should check out this minor gem! However, maybe not one for the kids. Whilst not Von Trier, the first two thirds are very dark, but then again it might be a sensible, workable approach to explain death to children. Choose life.....choose Poo!
