Review of Okja (2017) by Bojie D — 03 Jul 2017
Strangely feel good movie. Having no expectations about the movie since I never heard it before viewing it.
It sucks you into it's world as soon as it starts. With a TED style presentation about making a better world. Eventually finding out everything isn't what it seems.
The acting of the main protagonist and the CG rendered animal made empathize with their situation. Okja being a slightly smarter dog. Lots of personality and showing a wide range of emotions.
My concern that with a CG character it would feel disconnected but they seemlessly integrated Okja into the world and wishing to meet her in real life. It reminded me of my own dog at home.
Just seeing their carefree life in the forest definitely made it a comic of age then facing the reality of modern society clashing. I think this movie was a pleasant surprise. I would highly recommend it to anyone that wants to see something different. It was a movie that definitely made you feel one way or another.
Whether you are an animal lover or not.
