Ein Krokodil dreht durch

About This Movie

Ein Krokodil dreht durch is an interesting entry in the 2025 animation landscape. It has this quirky, offbeat tone that you don’t see in many mainstream kids' films. The pacing feels a bit erratic at times, but it adds to the absurdity of Mila’s quest to retrieve her dog, Charly, from the belly of a decidedly sick crocodile. The animation style strikes a balance between whimsical and slightly unsettling, which creates a unique atmosphere. The characters are well-voiced, and Mila's determination is palpable, making the crocodile's plight feel almost sympathetic. It’s not your run-of-the-mill family flick, and I appreciate how it plays with themes of friendship and sacrifice, albeit in a bizarre way.
