[REVIEW] Disney Pixar Coco Movie

Picture credit : http://disney.wikia.com

Hi everyone! Who's a big fan of Disney here?

I have been very eager to watch this animation when I saw its trailer in the theater and yes, I finally watched it! I feel touched with the movie (heck I even cried twice) and decided to write a short review so let's get started!

This movie is telling about how a 12 years old boy named Miguel, whose family is a shoemaker from generation to generation, pursue his dreams to be a musician. His great great grandfather is a musician and he left his family in order to pursue his musical dream. His great great grandmother was upset and banned music in her family. Meanwhile, music flows in the blood of Miguel. He was gifted with music and very keen to be like his idol, the most historical musician in Mexico. Living in a music hater's family, will he able to achieve his dreams?

First of all, I won't tell the detail story of the movie because I hate it when people tell me a movie story when I haven't watch it (it spoils the fun, you know) so if you really want to know, I highly recommend you to watch it. I am sure you will like this movie (for those who are eager to learn) because although it is animation, it has so many lessons to be learned. What I learned from this movie is, family is all matters. In pursuing our dreams, sometimes we neglected our family. We spend less time with them and it drifts us apart. This story reminds me that no matter what happens, the only person who will get your back is only your family. So never turn your back on them. Another lesson is, be persistent and follow your passion. I love how persistent Miguel in pursuing his dreams. Although his family banned him from playing music and destroying his handmade guitar, he doesn't lose hope. Thanks to his courage, he manage to overcome all of the obstacles. And also, you have to be careful in giving your trust. Not all people that are close to you, have good intentions. Just like what Ernesto de la Cruz (Miguel's idol) did to Hector (the forgotten from Land of Death). Ernesto did bad things to Hector in order to achieve his ambitious dreams (for those who have watched it, you know exactly what I meant here.)

Overall, this movie gets a 5 out of 5 from me. I love how Disney link the story of the dead and the living here. It's not only reminds me to appreciate the family I still have but also the memories that I share with those who was not with me anymore. It also teach me to pursue my dreams and be responsible for all the actions that I made. There are always consequences in everything we do even we didn't manage to pay the consequences now, there will always be tomorrow (even in the afterlife). I also learned the tradition of the Mexicans from this movie. They celebrate the Day of the Dead, a festival where Mexicans give their honor to their dead ancestors ( I guess it was the same Chinese's Cheng Beng). This movie was a touching story too, which successfully make me almost cry a few times and actually cry twice. I cry over an animation movie! But seriously, this is so touching. I also love the excellent graphic, as always, thanks to Pixar. Directed  by Lee Unkrich, co-directed by Adrian Molina, produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures, Coco has become one of my favorite animation movies.
