This week I had the opportunity to see the latest production from DreamWorks, the studio founded by Steven Spielberg.
"The Wild Robot" was directed by Chris Sanders and is based on a series of books by Peter Brown. It tells the story of a robot that gets lost on a wild island. The film has a very good and well-told story, and it moves away from Disney's clichés about animal movies, which is appreciated, because nature is a ruthless thing and many have grown up thinking, because of Disney, that it is something like an animal paradise.
Added to this is the fact that "The Wild Robot" has an outstanding artistic design, with an animation style that moves away from the realism of many computer-generated films to opt for an appearance more reminiscent of a painting, at many points.
Furthermore, "The Wild Robot" is absent from the great scourge that has ruined many Disney productions: "wokism". It is a film that does not try to conform to a certain ideological discourse or indoctrinate those who see it. It simply tells a moving story that is full of good values: friendship, the spirit of sacrifice, the desire to overcome...
I came away from watching "Savage Robot" with the feeling of having seen an excellent film on par with masterpieces like "Wall-E" (2008) and "The Iron Giant" (1999). This Sanders film is what many of us were looking for when we went to see Pixar films, before Disney destroyed the founding spirit of that studio with its ideological filters. Anyway, I highly recommend it, it's a masterpiece. In addition, it's an excellent film to watch with the family. Here is the announcement in Spanish:
+ UPDATED 20:48h: After publishing this entry I found out that one of the artists who collaborated on this film is the great Spanish cartoonist Borja Montoro, whom I have been following for years. Now I understand the great artistic level of this work.
