movie review - Extinct

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2022.01.29

This is a somewhat weird and off-putting animated story about a species of cuddly mammals that have bodies shaped like donuts - replete with the center hole. They are, as the title suggests, faced with extinction, so they try to do something about it. It's heavily slapstick and features nothing but annoying voices and situations. I did not enjoy it.

Not recommended.
