Slap

About This Movie

So, 'Slap' from '89 is this fascinating mix of animation, diving into adult themes with a satirical edge. It's not your typical kids' fare, not at all. The shorts are a bit rough around the edges, which I find gives it character—there's a raw quality to the animation that complements the biting humor. The pacing varies, some segments breeze by while others linger a bit, making you think. The stories tackle everything from societal norms to absurdity in daily life, all with a playful yet cynical tone. It doesn’t shy away from darker themes, which helps it stand apart from other animated works of its time. It's definitely got its own vibe.
