Why watch this film?
A fun DreamWorks animation about a boy who welcomes his new baby brother into the home, only to discover that he can talk and what his intentions are. The Boss Baby isn't as deep as say, the always interesting offerings from Pixar, and its humor is more geared towards children, who will have a grand time. However, there's a touching reflection on brotherhood and family that adults may resonate with.

Plot summary
A new baby's arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator -- a wildly imaginative 7-year-old named Tim. The most unusual Boss Baby (Alec Baldwin) arrives at Tim's home in a taxi, wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase. The instant sibling rivalry must soon be put aside when Tim discovers that Boss Baby is actually a spy on a secret mission, and only he can help thwart a dastardly plot that involves an epic battle between puppies and babies.

Madagascar
One of the main and most beloved animations from Dreamworks, 'Madagascar' is one of those movies that make anyone laugh - adults and children, without distinctions. In the story, we follow a group of animals (a zebra, a lion, a giraffe and a hippo, plus secondary characters) that escape from the zoo in search of freedom. The jokes are well placed and the characters evoke good feelings in anyone who is watching the movie. The script's idea of giving distinctive characteristics to the animals, such as the giraffe's hypochondria, is another hit that makes the audience easily identify with the animals. And the great highlights, of course, are the penguins and King Julien, with his catchy song that stays in your head even weeks later.
Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa
After a light and unpretentious first movie, a "classic" of animation, it was expected that 'Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa' would follow the same path. However, directors Tom McGrath and Eric Darnell invest in more of the same when talking again about these animals fleeing from somewhere - in this case, from Madagascar itself. There are its funny moments and that enchant parents and children, like the penguins' saga again. However, it is a pity that the movie cannot advance in the provocation of the story and in the development of the characters, which only gain layers when they find similar ones in the jungle. It's fun, but unfortunately it doesn't come close to what sequels like 'Shrek 2' and 'Toy Story 2' do, which go far beyond their original films.
The Boss Baby: Family Business
"The Boss Baby: Family Business" is a movie tailor-made for the current generation of children, full of references and jokes, as well as a very specific humor. The film is vibrant and frenetic, plugged into 220v and bombards us with so much narrative and visual information that only a child from the end of Generation Z or Alpha (since the Zs are already falling behind) can fully absorb and keep up with the pace. Energetic, fun, inventive, and with some very creative and interesting visual sequences, the animation addresses various social issues and has an important message about overcoming and self-confidence for children. For adults who venture to watch the movie, behind all the visual pyrotechnics there is a simple story about connecting with family, friendship and fraternity - and, above all, about how to be present and understand their children without suffocating them, but also without leaving them abandoned. It's an interesting sequel, it works well and has very creative solutions that will guarantee the attention of children.

10 Lives

Woody Woodpecker Goes to Camp

Robot Dreams
Sometimes we get so carried away by the marketing power of studios like Disney Pixar, and we overlook other avenues for deep and powerful animated stories that don't need excessively complex plots to evoke emotions. Such is the case with Robot Dreams, a Hispanic-French production directed by Pablo Berger (2012’s Snow White), based on the eponymous graphic novel by Sara Varon. Set in New York during the 80s, the story follows Dog, whose solitary life leads him to buy a robot for companionship. Their friendship grows, but an unfortunate day at the beach forces them to separate and long for the day of their reunion. Virtually without dialogue, with vibrant animation and a captivating visual language, the film tells a simple yet profoundly moving story about (curiously) human relationships and the course they take despite (or because of) accidents, fortuitous circumstances, and uncontrollable events that happen throughout life.
