Les inséparables

I'll start by saying that I found out about «The Inseparables» last year and started expecting it because it was made by my favorite Belgian animation studio, NWAVE.. Today I was finally able to watch it and what can I say about this cartoon?

«The Inseparables» - is a wonderful animated adventure for the whole family to watch.

The plot of the film is quite simple, But it was great, easy and interesting. The 90-minute running time flew by quickly, imperceptibly and with pleasure.

The cartoon teaches that dreams come true, the most important thing is not to give up and realize it in reality.

The jokes were funny and the characters were well developed.

With each new project, the studio has graphics Nwave is getting better and better, and you can see it in this cartoon. I don't want to compare the graphics of Disney or Pixar, which are more well-known companies, but as strange as it sounds, I would like to put Nwave next to Disney and Pixar studios in terms of graphics quality and more. Every hair, bush, drops of water were perfectly worked out, and not only them. Also, I really like how New York was shown in this cartoon. Parks, streets, and especially the night Times Square were shown atmosphericly, I even wanted to walk along it. In the scenes of the protagonist's fantasy, the animation was made in 2D style, something similar was recently used by the Disney studio in the cartoon «Wish».

I really liked the soundtrack of the cartoon, I want to mention the song «Where Is My Mind» by Puggy, , Egil Franzen, Romain Descampe and Matthew Irons. This song was perfect for what was happening on the screen, the rest of the songs were also good and also fit perfectly with what was happening.

As a result, «The Inseparables» - is an excellent, kind, wonderful cartoon that is worth watching on a gray and boring evening with your family. I think the cartoon will appeal to both children and adults.

Before I tell you, I would like to add something to my assessment. Studio Nwave They like to make references to their past cartoons and announce their next projects in new cartoons. In «The Inseparables» there was an announcement of the next cartoon, «Chickenhare 2: A New Adventure». This is a sequel to the 2022 cartoon, the first part was called «Chickenhare and the Hamster of Darkness». I haven't watched this cartoon yet, but I will definitely watch it when I have time. Also, after watching «The Inseparables», I wanted to rewatch the «The Son of Bigfoot» duology, someday I will also watch it if I have free time.

Well, it was quite embarrassing to go alone to a cartoon and sit in the hall when there were parents with children in the hall, but it was worth it!

My rating is 9 out of 10 and I recommend watching this cartoon with the whole family.

«A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality» John Lennon.

A marionette called Don is tired of being the fool of the play. He wants to be the hero. He escapes the theater workshop into Central Park where he partners with DJ 'Didier' Doggy Dog, a hip hop stuffed bear. They go on their misadventures.

This seems to be trying for Toy Story with Don Quixote. I'm fine with that. After all, a couple of the writers were involved in Toy Story. The animation is a step below top notch theatrical release. Sometimes it does detract from the movie. I am not in love DJ Dog and the two thieves feel like they come from a 90's movie. Apparently, all the characters come from the 90's.

As the advertising has insisted, this is essentially a retelling of Don Quixote through a Toy Story like world. Except of just toys, puppets and animals also talk, and there appears to be no unspoken rule about hiding from humans, which makes the set up especially confusing, given some things we later learn.

Animation wise, it's generic CGI, but the imagination sequences have a vivid painted style, which is quite pleasant to look at.

Story wise, the comparisions to Toy Story are really unfavourable, as this features a much more by the numbers plot, including a somewhat forced third act break-up. I will give credit, however, in how creative some of the actions by the characters are, as well as the concept of a self-run puppet show

Overall mid.

I watched this in 2024 and I never knew that the writers are the one who wrote Toy Story so that's why they are kinda similar, although I loved the twins as the villains like Trolls 3 and the Don's imagination animation is really good, I can't believe that this company is underrated and not really well known. I appreciate the animators who animated the 2.5D parts and the 3D parts, shout out to them.

I really love the characters, especially Dee cause she's shows that she's not just a "damsel in distress" but she can be a hero or a fighter, and Don is such an interesting character to this day..

Very entertaining plot, it has similarities to that of the classical Don Quixote, however the hero is not just some detached idealistic dreamer, his visions help him to solve the problems that he is facing, and to gain real friends in the process. I think this is teaching kids to value their own imagination and how it has the potential to transform their world, and to value their own reality around them. I think this movie deserves more love than it is getting right now. I think that this is not just a rerun of the Toy Story movie, the move has a lot of merit in its own right. I think it is of educational value an is also very entertaining.
