#Life movie characters movie#
Not always stating explicitly in words exactly what is going on means subtlety, to me, folks it means not "dumbing down" your movie and assuming the audience is stupid, which it mostly is not. It doesn't hit you over the head with its points once it's made them-every scene, every frame has a reason in the storyline for being there, and there are no gratuitous shots. The character development in such an ensemble cast is amazing, there's a major amount of character growth, and not just of the main character-so rare in animation and often in movies in general.

This movie is moving, touching, funny, intriguing, and generally engrossing. Yes, there's a lot going on, storyline-wise as well as visually, but that's because the story and characters actually have some depth to them! Just because it's a kids' movie doesn't mean you should have to turn off your brain at the theatre door-kids are smarter than you think! Besides that, I think that the PIXAR crew made this for themselves, even before their kids.and it shows, in the amount of heart in has. But, I'm glad to say, it's not! A Bug's Life has real heart. No, A Bug's Life would be static if it were all that and no story. But this movie is not just a masterpiece of art and tech, not just an dazzling explosion of movement and color. Of course, what they can do with technology is amazing (you can read their lips! try it!). Of course, it's beautiful (every blade of grass, the tree, the rain.). How can you not empathize with Flik and his road-to-heck-paved-with-good-intentions life? "Heck" indeed, I found myself identifying with that little ant (not to mention some of the other bugs) in a lot more ways than one.and that, in itself, says more to me about what an incredible movie this is than a whole book on its beautiful eye candy.
So maybe I'm nuts and just really good at hiding it.but not only did I NOT come away from A Bug's Life exhausted or dazed, it wasn't until I saw it the second time that I could even begin to truly appreciate the artistry and humour of the spectacular visuals-because the first time I went to see this movie, I got so wrapped up in the story and the characters that I FORGOT that I was supposed to be sitting there being "wowed" by each frame visually.
(originally a response to a movie reviewer who said A Bug's Life was too much, too fast-he was "dazed and exhausted" by the visuals, and seemed to ignore the story completely) Okay, first off, I'm 26 years old, have a job, go to school, and have a fiance'.
