Perfect accompaniment for the new Kid Cudi
Despite the title and the psychedelic images with which it is presented entergalacticwe are faced with a traditional story, and it is that the animated accompaniment of Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi for his new album of the same name presents us with a groundbreaking and immersive animated story featuring Jabari (voiced by Mix in original version), a young artist trying to combine love and success. And it's just success that brings him closer to love as he moves into his dream apartment and meets his new neighbor, Meadow, a wildly popular photographer (voiced by jessica williams in the OV).
Scott mescudi Yes Kenya Barrels are responsible for presenting this animated work, in which cudi he is not listed as a writer or director (although he is listed in the credits as "co-creator" and in the "story of" section), but his collaborators reproduce his penchant for bringing false depth to simple stories, whose characters, they are all very real and, above all, relatable.
Originality above all
Animation in the United States was often relegated to the same Disney-Pixar style and pigeonholed into children's stories, but this is something that has gradually changed with the arrival of Netflix and its animation for adults, in particular for the recent productions of Sony which changed the standard of animation beyond the expected aesthetic. Although we have in Netflix cases of series that combine several styles of animation such as Love, death and robots, entergalactic it's a beautiful explosion of color that paints New York in bright, vibrant hues, sometimes resembling an imaginative black hole.
In entergalacticthe main characters are surprisingly presented in a painterly style, reminiscent Spider-Man: A New Universe, whose animation literally looks like an animated comic book, but takes advantage of any moment in dreams, daydreams or memories, to exalt the power of creativity and offer new styles of animation that complement the original story with more original and artistically innovative styles. That if please this is a film to be enjoyed on the biggest screen at hand as it will not be enjoyed as much if viewed on cell phones which unfortunately is more and more.
Some of these animation style changes are amazing and cover many styles. Special mention deserves when a character tells an anecdote while handing out relationship advice to one of the protagonists, or an amusing manga-style animation sequence reminiscent of a first date at a feudal Japanese-themed restaurant. Also of note is a sequence that takes place during a video game-like nightmare, where everything goes black and white except for Jabari's red hoodie, which provides visual contrast.
It is these scenes that help to understand the need to tell this story in an animated way, since the romance around which the film revolves could well have been shown with live actors using very different photographs and camera angles. traditional, but if there was If it was a live-action movie, it wouldn't have the same charm, since it's the mix of its art, music and vibrant colors that draws us in .
Music as the engine of history
entergalactic está divided into capítulos, a modo de vídeos individuales extendedidos para contar una historia, creando all una increíble experiencia con un guion algo plano pero un estilo visual que nos recuerda que la animation puede contar cualquier historia y hacernos participles de las vivencias de sus Protagonists. Showing life through this wonderful perspective, what she achieves is giving even more importance to the little moments in life.
The new album by Kid Cudi is a delight that fits perfectly with the film, but which does not reach what one would call a visual album, since the themes of cudi they acquire more value in the context of the story that we see unfolding, enriching the film more through the music than if it had only traditional dialogues.
And once I open the dialog, I have to admit that entergalactic shows a good balance between the male and female gaze… While Jabari and his friends talk about women, Meadow and his best friend Karina discuss how to deal with the men in their lives. What is certain is that they want to present all their characters in a way that they cannot be hostile to the viewer, so that the romance that is shown on screen is not broken at any time, and for this they even avoid focusing too much on the subplot by Mr. Rager so that we never see Jabari struggling with the option of compromising his art to reach a wider audience.
entergalactic It's a quirky, intimate look at love and success that would have been better enjoyed the first time on the big screen, but is still thoroughly enjoyable at home thanks to its striking visuals and incredible music, which make up for the absence of a more original scenario.
