Son

About This Movie

So, 'Son' is this intriguing animated feature that's really got a unique vibe to it. The story follows a boy in a wheelchair, and, man, the way it parallels the struggles of a Mars rover is just something you don't see every day. It's got this rich, emotional core that feels genuine without being overly sentimental. The animation style leans towards a slightly gritty aesthetic, which adds depth to the whole experience. Pacing is more contemplative, allowing you to really absorb the themes of perseverance and hope. The practical effects here are quite impressive, even for animation—there’s a certain tactile quality that makes it stand out. Overall, it’s a refreshing take on overcoming adversity, wrapped up in a visually striking package.
