 Funny Movie July 26, 2008
My daughter is a BIG Brad Pitt fan. I bought this for her as a gift for her collection of movies he has done. It is a cut movie that Brad did in his earlier days.
One of my All-time favorite movies June 4, 2008
This movie has wonderful animation! The spiral city buildings are like a dream-land. I like that the movie starts out in a different era also. Love Brad Pitt's hair, among other things. This was actually the first movie I had ever seen Brad Pitt in. If you like Brad Pitt, you'll love this movie. His character is a very nice one which makes him even sexier. This half-animated movie is for the adults because of some sexual content.
What you think of this movie will depend on who you are November 12, 2007

If you're a kid or a parent looking for the sequel to Roger Rabbit, this isn't it. It's not intended to be family friendly, and you shouldn't assume that every animated or live-action-plus-animation feature is child-oriented. This particular piece is oriented toward older teens and people in their 20's and 30's. It's not porn, like Fritz the Cat, and it's not an extended-length music video, like Heavy Metal, but it does have alot of sexuality in it, which is used as a plot device. It doesn't pretend to be a children's movie (look at the cover or the byline), and it doesn't pretend to be X-rated either.
Judging it in this light, it's a good film. Brad Pitt stars in an early role vis a vis the voice of Kim Bassinger in a piece tinged with equal parts film noir, sex comedy, and cartoon. Does it deserve an Oscar? No. Does it deserve a few good laughs from a group of friends sometime before heading out to the bar? Yeah.

Cool World is a great movie. I love the way they did the cartoon world mixing with the real world. Reminds me of Roger Rabbit, only this is made for adults, not kids.

Brad Pitt tried when he was younger to do cutting edge work in film. As he rose the ladder he succumbed to the Hollywood cookie cutter style of acting, but you have to give him points for trying early on (remember 12 Monkeys and Fight Club or if you're really good - Johnny Suede). However this mishmash of an attempt to cash in on the success of Roger Rabbit was ill-conceived and badly executed. Not that Pitt didn't bring somehthing to his role and the same can be said for Kim Bassinger's badgirl, which made Jessica Rabbit look like Snow White, but they both failed to salvage the movie. The interaction with the doodles (toons in Rabbit) is mostly annoying and lacking in wit and style.
The movie is noisy and meandering. Save your money.
