This movie won the Oscar for the Best Animated Short. And boy they deserved it! It is a is a classic retelling of the Prokofiev's musical tale. But, the way it has been portrayed left me amazed about how a beaten to death story can be presented in a new form.
The animation is nice. My only gripe against the movie that the creators did not pay much attention to rewriting the stroy despite having adapted it. Nevertheless, watching this movie was 30 minutes very well spent
Direction 7/10
Animation 8/10

Pi (1998)
It is a brilliant insane movie. I could go on and on about the movie. Some of the quotes in this movie are mindblowing practical pieces of advice. But that not why I am raving about this movie.
The camera work on a black and white film is outstanding. The angles, the style, the motion...The story line is innovative; I don't think there are better directorial debuts out there.
Nevertheless, I must caution you that this is not a movie for everybody. It's intriguing but unless you appreciate the art called cinema you may not like it.
Acting 9/10
