Although it belongs to the Disney juggernaut, Pixar has always allowed itself to tell different stories, stories far removed from the world of princesses and dragons that made the mouse factory so famous. It proves it year after year (Luca and Soul are clear proof of this), and in 2022 it has done it again by focusing on something so important for young people: the arrival of adolescence and the changes they undergo in their bodies, added to how a family with such traditional dyes as the Chinese live through it all.
Red is hilarious. Not only is the script excellent (although it becomes less and less funny with each passing minute, turning the story into something more serious) and will make you laugh all the time, but Mei Lee's character is a real sweetheart. She's a real girl, with real problems, and all excellently portrayed.

Moreover, it focuses on the quality of the script, leaving the technical needs of the animation aside. Where other films seek to faithfully represent elements of fire and water, Red seeks fluidity of animation and elegance. Though kudos must be given for those few seconds of mouth-watering kitchen animation.

Musically it's not memorable, but that hasn't been Pixar's hallmark, so it's nothing new. The Spanish dubbing is also very good, but I'm curious to hear the original voices.

Ideal for family viewing, no doubt about it.
