Review 3.1: Crouching Tiger Hidden Entrance




A short 3D animation about a little boy who wanted to enter inside that place where, I guess, martial arts training is held but he thinks that the master doesnt want him inside. He keeps on knocking but the old master was giving a bad facial expression and raised his arm pointing to a direction and shuts the door, as if he wants the boy away. The boy stays outside until the next day - sad and disappointed. He decided to do some meditation. Then, the master went outside and still did the same act-. The boy got impatient and kicked the door and it opened and the master went out and the boy challenged the master to fight him. And again and again and again, the master pointed at the signboard saying "PLEASE USE SIDE ENTRANCE". And the boy felt sorry and just gave him a naughty smile. And it ends there. :)

The film is not that amazing but was creative. The rhythm of the music and sound effects matched with the actions and scenes worked really well, there was good timing. The character creation is good too. It's just that the boy, for me, looks like an alien. HAHA. But the way the animator created him fits his role which is someone who is somewhat stupid. HAHA. toinks. But why doesn't he have a shirt on? topless ah. And there was a cold environment in there. The animators must have made the setting more appropriate.
