I Am Frankelda

I wanted to love this so bad!! Let me start by saying the visuals are STUNNING but that’s about all I liked. The story was lacking and the script felt like it was written by AI. I love everything stop motion but this was just disappointing

Absolutely yes, just Magnific, incredibly, wonderful, amazing, beautiful work of art

4/5 ⭐️

Visually stunning. 🤩 Stop-motion animation is truly an art form, from building every set from scratch to designing the characters’ costumes and color palettes. The film was entirely created and shot in Mexico, and you can really appreciate the artistry in every detail of the characters.

I never expected it to be a musical (it reminded me of The Nightmare Before Christmas), but it never felt overwhelming or annoying. The narrative, however, was very ambitious and difficult to fully explore in a single movie. I hope there’s a sequel, or perhaps the filmmakers intentionally left it with an open ending.

They paid incredible attention to every visual detail, but they overlooked the fact that the story leaves many plot holes that deserved further explanation. In the end, I also wish Herneval and Frankelda had been given a much more satisfying conclusion to their story.
