Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you'll land amongst the stars.
This is a beautiful story of a robot that missed its intended destination and found itself on a journey of finding greater meaning.
Each of us went to school, learned as much as we could - relatively unbeknownst of where or how we would apply what we've learned - and someday we were challenged to use our perceptions and capabilities to contribute to our world, whatever imperfect world we were put into and communities we chose to define. Our journeys were never linear and we often found ourselves contributing adapting in directions and magnitudes we were once incapable of fathoming.
This robot was designed to shoot for the metaphorical moon and this story is a journey about the gap between missing that moon and landing amongst the stars.
While the rendition may be predictable and takes numerous shots at appealing to the audience's emotions, it compromises no charm and does successfully hit us right in the feels - over and over again. It sends powerful messages of unity, where what brings us together is greater than what divides us, of healthy self-skepticism and adaptability, and even of parenthood and perseverance. In my view, it's predominantly a gentle, pure-hearted, and yet powerful reminder that our lives are not set in stone and that we can all do more than we think we can do, if we simply open ourselves up to it.
Dreamworks outdoes itself again with spectacular and intricate storytelling, colourful and vibrant animation and soundtracks, captivating dialogue and charming humour, believable characterizations and humanizations, and perfect voice casting and actors.
This is probably the best movie of the year, animated or otherwise. Needless to say further, definitely give this one a watch!
