I didn't know what I was in for here, aside from "Sintel" being an animated short film.
But as I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it, of course I did so. I had never seen it before, nor actually heard about it. So writers Esther Wouda, Martin Lodewijk and Colin Levy had every opportunity to impress and bedazzle me.
Sure, the storyline was fair enough. But running at a mere 14 minutes, of course it was limited what the writers could cram into the narrative, so it was a bit rushed. But it proved to be fair enough entertainment for a single viewing.
The CGI in "Sintel" haven't aged well. It looked like something that was spawned in the early 2000s, not 2010. And the CGI rendering sort of took away from the overall enjoyment of this 2010 animated movie from director Colin Levy.
It is not something that I will return to watch a second time.
How did this 2010 animated movie land a 7.4 rating? That is simply beyond my comprehension.
My rating of "Sintel" lands on a five out of ten stars.
