The Book of Life is adequate in my book. While Jorge R. Gutierrez's style shines throughout, being his labour of love and all, the problem is that it's muddled. It's infested by needless narration and comic relief that doesn't work too well, and its music could have been not only original but better all around - it attempts at being a Mexican Moulin Rouge with all-too-familiar choices for musical covers, like the work of Elvis. The climax is the least inspired of it all, with a battle scene that mixes every CG cliché imaginable.
But despite of these flaws, Gutierrez did put his heart and soul into this project, so I can respect that. With all this invention to spare, it didn't disappoint... |
