ShangLuda Admirable film.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

bob the moo I'd like to explain the plot of this 'cautionary tale' to you – or at least relate some of it by way of introduction, but I'm not sure I can. A man is drifting along on a small raft with his paddle helping him. When he loses the paddle, that is the end of that. 60+ years later he arrives on some land with a ghost and a rock. That's pretty much it.I will confess I didn't get it. I didn't get the jokes or the content; if I tried to assign some great truth to it, I'd be making it up. There is something there I guess, but for me it was more the rhythm and oddity of the animation that drew me in. I liked the character of Klementhro too – he has simple needs and seems happy with them being met, but without them he has nothing and in the end is lost. Still, the film is a curio for me, not more than that.
