The Illusionist's beautiful animation is captivating, but
the story is really depressing.
Triplets of Belleville was a great movie. I loved the
musicality of it, and how there was hardly any (no?) dialogue. The Illusionist
is also beautifully animated. I love the small quirks of the animation, like
how The Illusionist's hands move when he packs up his poster. I loved how crazy
the rabbit was. But ultimately it's basically the saddest movie ever, and if I
had known that going in, I probably wouldn't have watched it.
