Review of Eagle vs Shark (2007) by Artur C — 12 Oct 2010

Quite liked this one. Absolutely up my alley- slice of life with quirky characters. I picked it up because Jemaine Clement is in it, who I love from Flight of the Conchords.

And he's great but I actually kind of fell in love with Loren Horsley's character, Lily. She is so sweet and genuine. I love the way she looks at the world.

There were some very poignant moments which I didn't really expect. Some of the relationships in this film are so well depicted thanks to great writing and acting. I especially loved the relationship between Lily and her brother.

Also loved the aesthetic of the film; great claymation segments, art direction and costumes. And I have never seen a town with so many murals!
