That Turtle

About This Movie

So, 'That Turtle' is a 2016 animation that really tries to capture a unique vibe. The tone feels kind of whimsical but there's also a deeper undercurrent to the story, which isn’t often the case in animated features. The pacing is a bit uneven at times—like, it meanders a little but somehow works in its favor. What stands out is the distinct animation style, and though the director is unknown, the craftsmanship in the practical effects gives it a really tactile feel. The performances, especially the voice work, lend a quirky charm that sticks with you. It’s not your typical animated fare, and it definitely has its own rhythm that makes it an interesting watch for collectors who appreciate the unusual in animation.
