Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

VividSimon Simply Perfect

Tobias Burrows It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

ijfharvey The ideas are somewhat interesting, however the characters lack any defining traits and seem to be just there, there is almost no explanation for any events, making the story hard to follow, and there doesn't appear to be any end goal for the characters to reach, causing the plot to wander around aimlessly. The art direction and designs are appealing, interesting and original, the CGI is blended with the 2d animation perfectly, even if it is sometimes obvious, and the animation is very well done, with fluid movements and good choreography and direction, however the colors, while fitting the mood of the scene, fail to distinguish foreground and background objects due to a lack of contrast.

Horst in Translation (filmreviews@web.de) "Poet Anderson: The Dream Walker" is a 15-minute animated short film from 2 years ago written and directed by a whole bunch of people for such a short movie. Anyway, do not be scared by Portugal being listed a country of production. This is just because of some of the filmmakers' origins. The language is English from start to finish. Unfortunately, this does not elevate the fairly mediocre material. It just feels like another supernatural animated short film that has a solid premises, but fails to elaborate on it convincingly and in an exciting manner for the audience. The best thing about it is certainly the animation. To me the style and the characters looked like a very dark version of a Gorillaz music video. One of the filmmakers has mostly worked as a musician so far, so maybe that inspired him too. Anyway, the story is not good enough really to let me recommend this one or say I am curious about a full feature being made at some point based on this short film. Thumbs down. Watch something else instead.

GlitchtoReality Upon starting this film, you'll be greeted with an amazing style of art with smooth form of animation that will just blow you away. You can't help but pause, or re watch it just admire the care and work that went into it. I found myself even pausing at certain moments just to better appreciate the detail that went into it. The animation (though very beautiful) does at some points seem to have a few amateur moments, but only further adds to the charm of the whole thing. However, the movie falls short on delivering a full story, with a lore that isn't explained very well and expects you to try and make sense of it. Since this is a short film, you can't really expect it too either. It fells like this movie could have been something more, something greater. There's so much left to be desired and I do hope that this will one day turn into a full length feature.

andreea_mihai5 The music is flawless, as one would expect from Mr. Tom DeLonge, and the visuals are stunning and worthy of your time.Poet Anderson: The Dream Walker is, basically, a magnificent blend between the fluidity of Aeon Flux and the sci-fi model experimented in Blade Runner. Basically, the short animated movie brings back and forth concepts scantly explored, but it has the clear advantage of letting its viewers to draw their own conclusions.And believe you me, those conclusions are all over the place, and the film will not be a one time thing. You'll watch it over and over again whenever you need to escape this ugly reality.
