Pixar has raised the animation bar again, with its most musical — and arguably most magical — film yet. If this is the afterlife we’re all headed to, don’t fear the reaper.

It’s not a subtle movie, but it’s an uncommonly affecting one—a film that, like Pixar’s best, manages to be whimsical and bone-deep, all at once.

A Tear-Stained Celebration of Overflowing Love, Mexican Heritage, and the Power of Memory.180303 (5.0)Cheeks soaked in tears, brimming with an overwhelming pour of love. The traditions of Día de los Muertos and Mexican music are melted together so brilliantly. Directed by Lee Unkrich and co-directed by Adrian Molina, the 2017 Pixar animated feature "Coco" follows 12-year-old Miguel, an aspiring musician who finds himself accidentally transported to the vibrant Land of the Dead despite his family's generations-old ban on music. Teaming up with the charming trickster Héctor to uncover the real story behind his musical heritage, the film delivers a visually dazzling and deeply resonant journey that honors ancestral remembrance, family bonds, and the unforgettable power of song to bridge the living and the departed.

The vividness of the narrative never quite matches the riotous swirl of color and culture on screen — and neither do the songs, sadly, for how central they are to the story. Instead, Coco settles into something gentler but still irrefutably sweet: a movie that plays safe with the status quo, even as it breaks with it.

Yes, Coco thrills with its of-the-moment visual invention, but its core elements — dead relatives, family photos, the power of loving memory — couldn’t be more timeless. When Pixar made me cry this time, it wasn’t just for the characters on the screen. It was for the people I remember, and the ones I hope will remember me.

After a string of films ranging from safe sequels (Finding Dory) to franchise duds (Cars 3) to not-fully-realized adventures (The Good Dinosaur), this is Pixar coming back in a heartfelt, gorgeous way.

It’s so respectful that vibrancy suffers. Coco is a bright pinata of a movie that breaks and nothing falls out.

Disney and pixar have crafted another movie which whole purpose it's to make people emotional while giving a story that it's far from being original (The quest of someone to a land of souls/deaad to discover himself or his past it's more common than you'd think) With that said, the soundtrack it's just beautiful and the visuals are astonishing, as usual.

Sorry for saying this, Pixar. I get what you were trying to say, and I got the feeling of Mexico, but I wasn't really in to the movie in the most of the scenes. However, I really love the title and why they chose it, but I really want Pixar to be Pixar, not Disney.

To be honest, I personally did not like Coco, please don't dislike this, it's just my opinion.
