Though visually eye-popping, where The Book of Life shines is in the unique way it presents the themes we see in all family films; the importance of family and being true to yourself.

Such a crowded, colorful, more-is-not-nearly-enough aesthetic could easily have felt garish and confusing. But for some reason, it doesn't.

The Book of Life moves breezily from one scene to the next, keeping the pace brisk and rarely skipping a beat.

Colourful and fast-moving, this animated film mines myths around the Mexican Day of the Dead to create a children's story about death.

It's a shame we don't have a lot more films like "The Book of Life" in theaters available to families.

Not dissimilar in merrily ghoulish spirit to 'The Nightmare Before Christmas', it's hugely entertaining.

This Mexican fiesta of animated splendor is packed with visual delights far more sunny than sinister as they burst forth as if flung from an over-packed piñata.

It has humour that will appeal and the setting makes it interesting and unique for a mid-term outing.

The Mexi-centricity is novel and welcome, as is the flirtation with morbidness, but the film overall is filled with the usual trademarks of sub-Pixar animation: glib one-liners, anachronistic pop-culture references, and inspirational cliches.

Whether en ingles o en espanol, The Book of Life is a delight. In an animated universe cluttered with kung-fu pandas, ice princesses and video-game heroes, Gutierrez and del Toro have conjured up an original vision.
February 26, 2016
A colorful, joyous and buoyant lark that draws more from Mexican tradition and Greek myth than ghoulish Burton-esque kitsch.
October 17, 2014
Without a doubt, it is one of 2014's best animated films; a holiday delight that exuberantly bursts at the seams with irresistible cultural pride.
