The problem is that Miguel's great-great-grandfather abandoned his wife and daughter for the musician's career, and since then in the Rivera's house any melody is banned. There comes the Mexican Day of the Dead, and Miguel secretly goes to the city square to participate in the talent contest, but he does not have a guitar. He decides to "borrow" the instrument in the crypt of his idol - Ernesto de la Cruz - but, touching guitar, Miguel falls into the world of the dead. And if he does not get out of there until the morning, he will forever remain a skeleton.
Pixar is surprising again. This time - the ability to tell a very grown-up story by kids' language. As in the Oscar-winning "Inside Out", here we go on a journey, where the ultimate goal is homecoming, back to the family. Add to this juicy Mexican melodies, brilliant animation, and Pixar's sense of humor and you will get an unforgettable cocktail of all possible emotions. It is clear that the "Oscar" is already in their pocket.… Expand

Can't really recommend it compared to other recent stuff like Inside Out and Moana. Seemed more like The Good Dinosaur or Monsters University, kind of interesting but flawed and inessential for a Pixar movie.

Beautiful to look at, well crafted in every way. Very entertaining. But WHY is Pixar choosing to spend so much time and effort in this lesson on pagan religion?

I went with some friends to a night time showing and I think it's safe to say we all enjoyed the film. Scoring this movie was really hard for me because if we were to look at letter grades, it definitely would be somewhere in the B-range for me but where? An 80% seemed too low but something closer to 90% seemed too high. I think it would be hard to counter that the illuminating scenery was anything less than magnificent. I don't think a scene went by where I was not in awe of the pure beauty of the movie from the spirit guides to the bridge; I think the best word to describe it would be "enticing!" Even the opening which was not lit up was gorgeous and was reminiscent of Hercules or Beauty and the Beast. The music was also stellar and I felt hypnotized by the guitar. I had extremely high expectations because Lee Unkrich is credited as the sole director of TS3, which I think is a perfect film, but I don't exactly think Coco was. I feel like there was a lot less humor in this film as compared to most Disney or Pixar films and that the jokes just didn't hit quite as much as they could. It was also a bit predictable plot wise which being a family film is forgivable but doesn't add to the score? I will say I feel like my experience watching this film was very similar to my experience watching ET. I didn't think I was that connected until the end when the drama hit and I started choking up, and for clarification sake , I've never cried in a movie, so choking up is about as far as I get. Overall, this won't crack my top five movies of 2017 but I'm willing to say it will hit my top ten. I definitely think you should go see it but I don't think it is the best Pixar film we've ever had. * And then the little foot note that is Olaf's Frozen Adventure. I didn't like the Frozen short before Cinderella, and I think this was better but oof. There was exactly one joke, where Olaf is being a savage, that I just started balling out laughing and is probably the only time I purely laughed while I was at the movie. But, other than that, it was tedious. Yes, I'm probably being too harsh on it but the movie ticket said 7:45, OFA started at 8:00, and that's a 20 minute short of all these discombobulated D-rate songs. I love Frozen, I saw it seven times in theatres, but goodness, I think I'm done with Frozen. Of course, I'm sure temptation will win over when Frozen 2 comes out in 2019...… Expand

The animation is beyond excellent and proves that Pixar is getting better in each film in the animation aspect. The voice acting is great (more than anything Gael Garcia Bernal). A very original story, even do, it is similar in a few things with "The Book of Life" (incredible movie) in his plot. The only thing this film did badly is the 30 minutes short from "Frozen" that is shown at previous this film starts. Is such a cliched pain in the ass and it is extremely long. I went to go to buy some popcorns and to the bathroom and when I came back, the f*@#ng short was still running.… Expand

It's a movie that's way better than Cars 3. Although i don't think is one of Pixar's best movies, is one of the best ideas in represeting better "El día de los muertos" than in The Book of Life. So yeah, It's good. Not the best, but good

It comes out exactly 22 years after the release of the studio's very first film, "Toy Story". Pixar reinvented the animation genre by using computer animation to tell smart, family friendly, beautiful and creative stories. Even though the studio has seen a drop in quality as of late, "Coco" is definitely a return to form.

It tells the story of Miguel Rivera, a young musician who lives in the village of Santa Cecilia in Mexico. His family has banned music though, so he is struggling to make his dreams come true. But everything will change once he transports to the Land of the Dead and tries to find his icon, Ernesto de la Cruz.

"Coco" faithfully presents the Mexican culture and people, making you not just want to visit the country, but want to live there. But not to the expense of the story. It's smart, beautifully told, filled with strong and complex characters, incredible music and a message that's powerful and though-provoking. "Coco" is a must see for families and fans of animation. It's a masterpiece and meets the high bar set by the studio's earlier works.… Expand

While Inside Out may seem to be onCompared to Pixar's previous original installment, Inside Out, this one's attempt to win best film of the year is extremely slim due to its huge difficulty attempting to keep up the hype from the get-go. While Inside Out may seem to be on something to win best film of the year and it literally worked, Coco, on the other hand, may seem to follow the same tracks that Inside Out went but it just can't find itself to win best film of the year. Although it won't win best film of the year in my opinion, Coco is definitely a solid film that definitely proves that Pixar is still the king of animation movies since the release of their first feature film, Toy Story, and no other animation studio can overtake the throne. If you can still find a way to ask them to see this movie, please do so right away because Coco is definitely worth watching since it's Pixar after all.… Expand
