Pixel Theory
by Alberto Carpintero, Mar Delgado, Esaú Dharma, David Galán Galindo, Pepe Macías, Juan José Ramírez Mascaró, Pablo Vara
2013 / 90m - Spain
Sci-fi - Anthology
An interesting little project, but not quite as good as it sounded on paper. Pixel Theory is a rather coherent anthology, centered around a single concept, but approached from different angles and helmed by a selection of different directors. The idea is grand, but the execution is a little too flakey. There are some smart takes here (like the advent of AI art), but the execution is wildly inconsistent and some of the segments are pretty subpar. The animation sequences in particular are abysmal, which brings the overall level down. It's a shame, there's so much potential here and it does shine through quite regularly, but it's not enough to make this a great film. Read all
