Mr. Mittens

About This Movie

So, 'Mr. Mittens' is really something else, right? It starts off looking like a light-hearted puppet show, but quickly morphs into this bizarre exploration of obsession and discontent. The puppeteers' performances are surprisingly nuanced, bringing a lot of depth to what seems like simple characters. The tone shifts are jarring and keep you on edge, almost like you're part of the audience experiencing the discomfort firsthand. The practical effects, especially in the puppets' expressions, add a striking layer of eeriness. It plays with the idea of fiction versus reality, which can feel unsettling as it reveals the spectator's role in all of this. It’s a peculiar ride that sticks with you, for better or worse.
