The music, the songs, the emotion, the magic of the circus, the cinematography, the casting, this was La La Land but more fictionalised but dare I say it, better! The breakout of this film was definitely Keala Settle and she carried the whole film! I'm sure I'll start to see more of her after her portrayal! If I was able to give 9,5 I would do it, -0,5 points because I do agree a bit about the criticism on the film's artistic licensing where sometime's I felt like breaking out to a song wasn't necessary but I'll let this one pass because it just adds to a better soundtrack album! Wouldn't be against seeing it a second and maybe even a third time (and I almost never do that)!

Coco is probably where Pixar perfected the formula wherein past films were either lacking emotion, or losing it's touch to reality. I know it's "Pixar" but I think people can relate to a film much more easier when it tackles a story about humanity as Coco is. It was based on a cultural belief with the magical musicality of Pixar films. Not much to say other than it indeed was the final product of years' experience and critiques received by Pixar.
