Orión y la oscuridad

I tried my best to like and enjoy this movie really i watched it from start to end.

But it will fail to deliver in so many aspects, you will find yourself struggling to connect with the story.

There is nothing much to describe except i liked the idea this movie was tryna explain childhood fears, anxieties etc etc.

First 20 mins was somewhat enjoyable then it just went down so bad after.

This movie should have stayed fantasy with all the entities as they are should have a better story, better ending that way.

Rather they made it like it's all imagination of a man telling story to her daughter, and they just making stuff up anything ridiculous goes on.

It's a 5/10 for me only because of the idea this movie could have been so much better.

Orion and the Dark is a surprisingly heavy and layered animated film until you see who has a screenplay credit and then it all makes sense. What starts off as a film about how every aspect of life can be scary quickly morphs into something that celebrates the unpredictability of it whilst exploring how balance is essential.

Jacob Tremblay is almost too good at portraying Orion's fear of everything early on but that actually makes his newfound love of adventure all the more enjoyable. Paul Walter Hauser makes Dark so loveable, turning a concept that's scary to so many into a gentle giant with his own fears and doubts.

Sean Charmatz's direction keeps things moving and manages to find an animation style that feels fairly original and more importantly, really nice to look at. In a perfectly fitting fashion, its greatest moments of visual beauty come from the scenes at night, which is essentially the majority of the film.

This was a nice movie and it started of great but about 20 minutes into the movie it changed with the appearance of a new character that from that point kept jumping in.

Every part where she appeared the story came to a grinding halt in my opinion and it started jumping everywhere.

The end tied it together quite nicely but it didn't make up for the jumping up until then. And the appearance of the new character spoiled the rest of the movie. If that character and setting had been introduced from the beginning I would have felt differently about it.

So all in all. It is a nice movie with a great story and great potential about facing your fears but it could have been soooo much better.

We all have fears that we struggle with throughout our lives. Perhaps the biggest contribution to overcoming these fears was the support of our parents. The things that scared Orion and his narrative were very attractive and made us feel close to him.

But darkness has been the common point of most people at a young age. What we always had in mind from darkness was a scary and emotionless creature with a strange voice. But the story we had here was exactly the opposite of our childhood imagination. Darkness is a reliable, kind and helpful friend.

The border of creativity in the screenplay was not limited to darkness, and the night team of Darkness was really pleasant. This team included everything that happened to us at night and with extremely creative methods, they can make the night painful or relaxing for us. I had a lot of trouble with insomnia :)

This is a movie that appeals to everyone, regardless of age. From the beginning of the story to the end, the audience was accompanied by the story moment by moment, and both adults and children could communicate with it. Thanks for creating a safe space for families to enjoy a movie together.

A unique journey into darkness, personifying the darkness, allowing us to see reflections of real life within it.

Darkness is no longer merely the absence of light but has transformed into an emotional entity. It blends into the protagonist's life in a mysterious guise. This novel concept not only offers solace to those who fear the dark but also prompts a reexamination of our ingrained dread of it.

In terms of the plot, it profoundly interprets the significance of the balance between two sides. There is no absolute good or bad; light and darkness are interdependent and complementary. The subtlety of this balance, precisely the coexistence of these opposing elements, constitutes a colorful world.
