Review of Eagle vs Shark (2007) by Liamexe — 24 Jan 2023
One of the funniest and best-made comedies I've watched in a long time is without a doubt this one! The heart of Shark vs. Eagle lies in its deliciously awkward yet brilliantly funny scenarios, complemented by odd but endearing characters.
I must tip my hat to the film's writer/director Taika Cohen for achieving such comical and dramatic timing. While many contemporary comedies share the same awkward humour (such as Napoleon Dynamite and The Life Aquatic), Shark vs.
Eagle succeeds where some of those movies failed because of the characters' genuine, innocent feelings. The infantile emotions that the movie so masterfully evokes are then aesthetically portrayed by some purposely simple stop-motion animation.
