Extraworlds

About This Movie

Extraworlds delves into the lively and chaotic world of adolescence through the eyes of three friends—Julia, Paulinho, and Duda—who find themselves transported from their gaming adventures into actual alternate realities. The animation here has a certain charm, with vibrant colors and imaginative landscapes that evoke that dreamy feel of RPGs. The pacing is a bit uneven at times but reflects the erratic nature of youth, which I found fitting. Themes of self-discovery and confronting fears are woven through their journeys. It’s not often you see a blend of adventure with such personal stakes. The practical effects, when used, add a tangible feel to their surreal escapades, grounding the more fantastical elements. The performances, while perhaps not groundbreaking, are genuine and connect well with the audience's nostalgia for simpler days.
