The Life of Death (I) (2015) User Reviews

Meh

[BornKnight · 5/10 · 18 November 2023]

This 7m short tells the story of the life of Death as the title says, with a pun.

Didn't like it so much, very, but very, previsible, mildly laughtable and not very well done.

You can take another alternative to what the short try to show, but basically not a must see, already saw the same concept on the Cartoon Network "Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy" with much more spirit.

Even the prosthetics are kinda basic and not very well done.

With exception of the first images of NY on a tele objective zoom camera and some cool frammings.

Passable, not a must see again. Score: 5,0 out of 10,0 / C.

provocative

[Kirpianuscus · 30 September 2017]

one of films proposing an eccentric idea. eccentric only at the first sigh. because it has the virtue to talk about ordinary every day reality. about segregation and solitude. about the weird presence of the other and his special motif who does him profound different. about small significant moments of each life. and, sure, about the moment of death. after an ordinary life. result - maybe a form of "if". or one of touching stories remembering common events, meets and stories. a black comedy. and a not bad hypothesis. so, a provocative film. and that does it one of the "must see it".
