COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Uhhhhhh........ submitted by chioma on June 13, 2015, 6:21pm I honestly think it could have been much, much better. The advertisement for the movie is complete bogus. You would never believe what was in the movie after you saw it. This isn't worth watching at all, but you can because there are some funny parts.

Great animation, not a great story submitted by Kikumatsu97 on July 6, 2015, 1:17pm Here's another children's installation about death. But this time we come from the perspective of the Mexican day of the dead. There's some really fun music and amazing animation, vibrant colors and unique style, it's over ambitious though as it tries to juggle an indeterminate number of morals, all which leave you ignoring all of them and just enjoying the hour and a half of family time.

Book of Life submitted by SBNB on July 14, 2015, 9:03pm I didn’t expect to like this movie as much as I did. It’s great for a cartoon.

noooo submitted by Jada Lee on July 24, 2015, 7:24am Movie was terrible

Enjoyable submitted by wendylv on July 26, 2015, 8:41pm I don't think the movie was quite as good as the trailer, but it was a decent family movie and those can be hard to find sometimes. Worth watching.

Bad submitted by Ele Z. on July 31, 2015, 11:40am Just bad .. We didn't watch more than 20 mins...

Just bad submitted by AprilCDB on August 6, 2015, 1:30pm This movie just wasn't very good and ended up having a bit of a different plot that I got from the trailers.

Mixed feeling submitted by leenajong on July 19, 2017, 8:28pm I have a mixed feeling for this one. It's funny but I don't like the animation.

funny submitted by yenkong on July 19, 2017, 9:16pm I think it's hilarious.
