Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal

 Primal: Tales of Savagery (2019) - IMDb

I am a bit obsessed with animated television at the moment and I'm loving it. One show that really captivates me is Genndy Tartakovsky's Primal. An animated series that details the life of a caveman and his dinosaur friend as they stay alive in a world full of threats. This film has no talking and the episodes are only 20 minutes. Thats what originally pulled me in, I knew that since there was no speaking I would have to disconnect to really experience the show fully and I loved it.

One thing this show does so well is the animation itself. The shows colors are somewhat mute and bleak at times but the overflow of color in important scenes pulls the audience right back in. The bleak feeling is also a very common theme in the show as death and battle are quite regular.

Another aspect of the show that I love is the realness of it. The team that made this show really didn't hold back on the emotional and heart wrenching moments. The show is a depiction of life, and in life there are setbacks and challenges which are displayed perfectly in the show. Despite there being no words your feel and understand everything that the characters experience. Pain, heartbreak, joy and confidence are common emotions felt during the show.

Primal is a great show and I would highly recommend. It was a show that started as a study break for me and it quickly became a true masterpiece of a show that I will continue to rave about to all my friends until they watch it.

Get out Movie Review

Background The 2017 film "Get Out" was directed by Jordan Peele and it was his directorial debut. Without getting too into the details just yet I would say for Peele's directorial debut this film was a home run. Starring Daniel Kaluuya and Allison Willams the duo plays the role of a young couple traversing life as an interracial couple, this lays out the experience of meeting Rose's, played by Williams, family. It was made clear in the film that Chris played by Kaluuya was scared and uncomfortable but Rose ensured him everything would be fine. They got to her house and the vibe felt off from the start. The question of race was in almost every conversation but not in a negative way. They were praising Chris for what they described as "god given ability" or they talked about how his genetic makeup was ideal. This freaked Chris out and he wanted to literally get out. As the film unfolded we find that this family runs an operation that takes the brain of one per...

Swiss Army Man Review

Image
  Swiss Army Man, directed by Daniel Sheinert and Daniel Kwan is a film detailing the life of a man, Hank, stranded on an island who was battling with mental illness. Hank was on the island ready to take his own life but was inspired by a mysterious man who washed ashore. The man played by Daniel Radcliffe was named Manny and was very far from normal. Manny was depicted as a corpse but had powers that made him extremely special and beneficial to Manny who was struggling in the wild. Manny had powers like being able to spit up clean drinking water, fart so powerfully to be used as a jet ski in the water, break logs, start fire, and shoot things out of his mouth. It sounds crazy but the movie runs with the idea so well creating a masterpiece filled with themes of self growth, reliving trauma and finding oneself. Manny and Hank continues to adventure and worked to escape while growing closer every second they were together. The two eventually found civilization and it happened to the ...
