20 minutes into this movie I was wondering why this was animated. It wasn't bringing any value to the plot, or style at all. It was just animation replacing normal, easy to film life. I was going to knock this down a bit for this reason for sure.

Then the film ended and I was totally wrong. In fact, by the end I was totally wrong about a lot going in. The details are a little dangerous to talk about with people who haven't seen it yet. I don't want to have you walk in with predisposed thought. So if you haven't seen it yet, go do yourself a favor and let me know what you thought afterwards. I loved it in the end.

If you've seen it and don't get my love of this, here I go. This film slowly seeds his mental illness perfectly. I didn't even think about it until over halfway in, but by then it all looks so obvious. He's taking pills at the start. Everyone is voiced the same at the start. Everyone has the same face at the start.

Early on, you simply think it is a style choice. But when you get a unique face and voice to show up, suddenly the rest stands out even stronger. Now you're learning what it is like to be in his shoes. The mental illness slowly growing keeps you from fixing the problem.

If one day you woke up and you were colorblind, you'd freak out. If over a few years you slowly went colorblind, would you notice?
