Il cane è adorabile. Avevo deciso di vedermi questo film dopo aver visto quel cane in questo teaser:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuOvxu5U32Q
In realtà il cane è marginale (anche se molto presente).
I can't say this beautiful movie touched me to the point of crying, but I got a burning sensation in my eyes towards the end. An amazing movie that beautifully shows off Mexican culture, and manages to be interesting for all ages
8/10
I folded a few tears at the end. Beautiful story with a fantastic fantasy world, where only one thing annoys me (it has to do with one thing a dead female relative says to Hector in the other half).
It got me and my 11 year-old son good. We were dead wrong that it would be a ripoff of the (passably good) and similarly themed The Book Of Life. Best Pixar since Toy Story 3. Watch the deleted scenes to see how bad it COULD have been.
A good redemption for Pixar after its recent run of mediocre films. This film did a superb job of balancing culture attunity with universal themes. I'm not Mexican and know little about Mexican culture, but the world did feel very authentic, even if I couldn't explain why. The themes of family and forgiveness were very strong, and I'll admit I got choked up a little bit at the end. It does have a familiar "follow your heart" theme, but it plays around with expectations just enough to make things interesting. It certainly presents a "disneyfied" version of Mexico, but I'm not so sure that's a bad thing.

I have 80 years old mother, so in the end I cry a lot, for me that's unexpected.DaniloFreiles

By the end, I was sobbing so hard I had to pause it. This movie exceeded my expectations. Great message.Typically Thomas

This film taught me that predictable plot twists don't matter if the plot is exceptionally executed.airi86ja

Feel good, sweet family movie, with a tear-jerking end. Gorgeous visuals, great story and the cultural lessons were fascinating.Agrimorfee

I wondered if they inspired by the legendary adventure video game Grim Fandango.Paravail

As a Latino I just found this clichéd, Americans act like we're all peasants.The storyline was very predictable, didn't seem like there was any originality to this storyline.
