La Grande Aventure d'un chien en or

Very accurate view of the risks of unsustainable mining and consequences for nature and people and ... fun!

A Mexican animated film. It is about some people from a town who want to knock down a mountain and a girl with her best friend and her dog must save her. Excess of imagination that pleases. Characteristics of Mexican culture, although at times she feels loaded with a doctor, she makes a wonderful journey through culture: Mexican animals, joy. In 2D, although the animation is good, certain gestures and expressions in the characters were left behind. Parsimonious at times. It starts at a good pace and in the middle you feel that it lengthens a lot but the character to whom Alex Lora lends the voice completely saves the film and is the one who takes the comedy part, bringing the film to fruition. Predictable like all of the genre. Ideal for the whole family.

Pretty cool animation of Mexican production, although the poster misleads the viewer because I thought it was a computer animation, and it's a simple 2D, cartoon animation.

The rating is way too low. Yes, the characters are a bit one-sided, and yes, the story sometimes lacks of consistensy, but it is an animated movie made for children/family. And it woks perfectly in that regards. Visually stunning - a little bit similar to my beloved Tomm Moore movies, magical, and there are symbols everywhere. Culturally I guess is quite nice, but it's not my my place to judge from Europe. And it teaches a very important lesson.

It's a political anti-hydraulic fracturing mess. Whoever wrote this was awful and did absolutely no research into the process of extracting gold or where it can be found. The music is bad enough it sounds like I made it and that's horrible. The lines are so bad and if it wasn't for the decent animation it would be better to watch Dora the Explorer as at least it has facts in it.
