Welcome to A Short Review! A new series where I review short films in under 300 words (or more if I feel like it :p). I figured with Pixar releasing two films this year, now would be the perfect time to begin such series with the Pixar shorts—one each day from November 9th to the 24th (counting down the days until The Good Dinosaur is released). I’ll begin with Pixar’s (then called The Graphics Group) first film ever made—The Adventures of André and Wally B.
Where Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak lacks in originality, it makes up for with entertaining characters, solid performances, and an exquisite set piece.
