Cupid

About This Movie

So, Cupid from '98 is one of those quirky animation pieces that doesn’t quite hit the mark, but there’s something about its floundering charm that keeps you watching. The premise is simple yet intriguing—Cupid himself falls victim to the chaos of love he's meant to control. It has this loose, playful vibe, with a pacing that meanders, almost like it’s unsure of where it’s headed. The practical effects are modest but give it a certain old-school feel that’s kinda refreshing compared to today’s slick CGI. The voice work feels earnest, if not a tad over-the-top at times. Overall, it’s a peculiar exploration of love’s unpredictability, and that’s what makes it interesting, even if it falters along the way.
