Review of The Phantom Tollbooth (1970) by Megan . — 02 Apr 2009
This film was very interesting. I haven't read the book, so I am only basing my review from seeing the movie. I must say- though this film is primarily an animated picture- I loved the camera work during the live-action parts of the movie.
The filming was very creative and unique! Now to talk about the animation. Well, it's Chuck Jones! One of the most talented animators, and one whom was part of two of the most enduring and time-withstanding cartoon series of all time- Bugs Bunny and Tom and Jerry.
So the animation was very fun to watch, and it while the plot was pretty simple, the imagery was very entertaining, trippy, and unique. I probably wouldn't watch this again, but for kids it's kind of a great way to motivate them, give them a bit of a school lesson, and entertain them all at the same time! Haha.
Very eye capturing.
