Robot Dreams (2023)
This movie is cute, wholesome, heartwarming and adorable. It has all the right elements, and a bold approach with no dialogue that I think it pulls off reasonably well. It could maybe have been a short film, but I don’t think it falls completely through with its length. It just not never fully won me over. My emotional engagement was close to a flat line. Maybe it was too much “on the nose” with its themes or it created too much distance with being both animated non-human characters and no dialogue. I was pretty touched by Wall-E but not so much here.
