Klaus |OT| Netflix Xmas adventure. right in the feels
- Thread starter Greigor the FellHand
- Start date
Other than some jarring music shifts a couple of times, I thought it was pretty good. I'm not really a fan of Santa Claus movies, so I was glad it didn't rely on the same old cliches such as the workshop with elves and whatnot
Acouple out-of-place music choices, and I wasn't strongly into the final note of how it ended.
That said, this movie is really beautiful. Full of charm, solid performances, great visual storytelling. Oh, and to reiterate - it's fucking BEAUTIFUL. Not a single frame felt lacking in masterclass artistry.

Really enjoyed it. I'll agree that it has some uneven parts, but I expected that from such a passion project. Plus, can't think of many other animated movies that feature Saami stuff (though it stands out a bit since the rest of the movie's geography/culture is less specific,) so that's fun even from color/clothing standpoint.
Really wish I could have seen it theatrically, but netflix didn't want to spend any money on that. The smallest 2D expressions often get much larger laughs when seen on the big screen.

I finished watching the movie today, and I hope for those who are on the fence should go and watch it now.
It's one of the best christmas movies I've ever seen. It's amazing. Don't read up on it, just watch it.
The movie is being unnoticed here with the Disney+ and Frozen II talk, but looks like it's having very good word of mouth on Twitter (including fanart) and iMDB.
Next week, Netflix releases other animation movie with 80 on Metacritic. I Lost My Body.
Netflix is having an excellent november in animation with Klaus, Green Eggs with Ham and, soon, I Lost My Body.

Finally got to watching this. I missed a huge chunk of the middle to go take a shower but I'm sure I'll be putting it on again next month. What I saw was stellar with great art though. I'm not even sure I understand how the look of the film was achieved, it's very unique.
Is none of this movie honestly 3D? There are a few scenes that stood out to me as definitely 3D, but I guess it could just be the lighting.
3D was used for some of the background shots, along with horses and carts if I remember correctly.
The rest is all hand drawn.
I ultimately decided to give it a shot, and I'm glad I did. I guess Klaus will now be a yearly Christmas tradition for me.
Just finished it. It's honestly so good I'm amazed it exists. I rolled my eyes at first at some people saying it was a new Christmas tradition but now...
Very heartwarming and funny. But why is the voice actor for Jesper channeling David Spade so hard? Did they want David Spade and couldn't get him?
Worth the wait and then some. The film just looks incredible and feels quite special, seeing this style of beautiful 2d animation along with modern techniques mixed together create for a killer art style. Really enjoyed it, can't wait for the next feature from this studio.
Doesn't sound like that at all to me. From his first words I knew it was Jason. That's how he talks.
Unlike Frozen 2, Klaus bothered to get Sami people on the cast, with Neda Labba playing as the young girl Margu. Kudos.
Really good movie, I saw it a while a go and just loved it. Some of the shit the villagers was getting up to was so weird and hilarious though. XD
This feels like the Christmas movie most likely to actually become a classic in a very long time
Watched this with family tonight after seeing a trailer for it on ERA. Really glad we watched, felt like a perfect Christmas movie with a nice simple plot and beautiful animation. I don't really like Santa movies or Christmas movies but this one, somehow, stood out. I don't think this is the last time I've seen the movie.
