Space Family Carlvinson
by Kimio Yabuki
Uchû Kazoku Carlvinson
1988 / 45m - Japan
Comedy, Sci-fi - Animation
A cute little space comedy. I wasn't familiar with this one at all, but it looked quite goofy and weird, which is always a plus in my book. Looks can deceive, but not so in this case. Carlvinson is genuinely kooky and goofy, a simple school comedy at heart, only with a bunch of odd-looking aliens trying to act like a normal family. The setup sounds a little dark, but the film is very light-hearted and comedy-focused. It's more about alien creatures joining in with school activities rather than anything dramatic or nefarious. It's essentially a very basic, simple anime, made funnier by the fact that half of its cast are grueling alien monsters. Fun and quirky, a nice find indeed. Read all
