Reviews for Little Aviator

Corny

Come on now, that was corny as hell! I realize a lot of time went into it but it's sooo corny. The voices are overdone and with random portraits that are supposed to be symbolic and lines like "when I grow up I want to be just like you", there's just no way this can be watched seriously.

Maybe back in the 50's this movie could have been realistic, but let's be real here... people haven't talked or acted that way in years. The movie would have been alright and touching if it hadn't reused cinematic techniques that've been used for years.

Good attempt though, don't take me too insulting because I still respect the effort, I'm just being harsh so your next one turns out right =]

Cheers

Well if you meant to say random portrait instead of random portraits, then i guess that makes sense kind of, but that picture was only mean to help you grasp the story. Thats like the only photo in the entire animation. And yes, it is corny :)

im sorry but that was HORRIBLE

bad voice acting, bad animation! and it goes absolutely NOWHERE! a kid gets a plane and has a flashback!

im sorry, but i hated this, it was cliched, unorigional and sappy for no real apparent reason, and it didnt go anywhere, the kid wants to be an aviator... so? why should i care? what have you presented that would make me care about this child?

listen before people go deleting my post because i was one of few who didnt like this... lets look at a SIMILAR post, by Vinnie Veritas, and im talking about Papalote++ so people know...

similar story, about a kid who wants to "fly" but the kid doesnt talk about wanting to be an aviator, he goes and does it, we already care about this character because we can see the passion and kejones thats hes got to make his dreams a reality. trouble is not EVERY dream comes true... thats what he learns; in this we only learn "its ok to have a dream" i think... was that what you were going for? isnt that a little weak? or maybe its just a kid who has a dream to fly?

how can we relate to this child at all? he accepts a present from his dad with little to no graditute, and then he mourns over his dead mom, who probably died in a plane crash anyways...

heres how i would have done this:

go a step further after he has the flashback it goes to him only hes the aviator, nonchalontly navigating a beaten up old zepplin...

this is a very small way to add a bit more depth to this overwise see-through plot-line...

showing as the aviator shows he isnt just a dreamer, but a doer, and showing how hes achieved his dream is even more meaningful, because seeing that its not just a shiny new plane, its not something his dad gave to him, its something he earned, he built it, that shows comitement...

i didnt like the animation, well.. i didnt like MOST of it... i liked the seen with king kong because its un-obvious... if youd picked "alive" i would have broke out laughing, anyways, it seemed plain... like, its all right, it gets your point across, but if thats whats holding this thing afloat if you'll pardon the expression, then im afraid the whole thing will just crash and burn...sorry

i HATED the voice acting, considering whats being said, you could have well done without it... why? honestly why did you have voice acting? this movie would have been MUCH more potent without it, even if a little on the flavorless side...

the kids whiny voice bugged the heck out of me, and the adults do little more...

and whats the connection with christmas? i cant make sense of that at all...

sorry, keep trying... theres the begginnings of something there, but thats it

2/10

Please dont delete this review anyone

hmmm... well im glad you took the time out to review it. The reason why didn't make it longer was because i knew alot of frame by frame would have to be done, so i went a route to where you watch it and whatever you interpret from what you see is what you gain from the story. The less you show the better right. If i had showed him growing up, it would kind of make you go... well, i saw that coming. The ending of this leaves it open to possibilities to question yourself. And its good because it seems you are questioning yourself alot. I dont understand the gripe about the animation. Did you not like the art or the fbf? What didn't you like about the animation?
If you didn't like the voice acting, well i can't really do anything about that. I choose to put in voices for the main fact that i wanted to have him go out side to fly his plane. If he did it silently, it wouldn't do much for me to have him just run out there after watching king kong. It just felt flat for me without the voices.... Before i started i thought about doing it without voices, but it didn't feel right.
Building the airplane was something that i thought about, but the character i had in mind was way to young to be able to do this and the time period isnt right for that. It wouldn't make sense to have a kid build a motor airplane that can fly when there was barely any out at that time. The reason for the time period too was because i wanted a reason to have king kong in there just because the ending is so great and when the airplanes take flight you feel so much suspence... and also i wanted Howey to wear knickerbockers.
Anyways, thanks for the review
