Good Message!

The visuals are flawless and the message is great. I think inclusivity is very important, but personally I think the way the boy was just thrown into that situation could have really went badly, I mean for her safety. Having known people with autism, there should've been someone with experience that accompanied them, at least the first time.

Looking through your eyes

Absolutely love many of Pixar's short films, with the quality being remarkably consistent (might argue that the quality of their short films are more consistent than their feature ones). Pixar's work has always had a lot of depth and handled their fair share of mature subjects handled accessibly and intelligently, but their output has in general been deeper and more mature in recent years in a good way. Their short films in the past couple of years have certainly been true of this.

'Loop' to me deserves to be seen a lot more and deserves a much better rating here, it is an absolutely fantastic short film and one of their best in the past few years (2018-2020). It has a very brave subject matter and is one of the most relatable recent Pixar short films thematically in my view, being autistic myself with communication barriers. As one can guess, 'Loop' resonated with me emotionally which plays a very large part in its appeal.

The animation, as always for Pixar, is wonderful. The very rich colours are enough to make the eyes pop, the backgrounds are gorgeously detailed and far from simplistic and the characters are expressive and nuanced in face and movement. The music is never over-bearing or too low key, with the ability to uplift and move. "Renee's Place" and "Processing Time" are especially true to this.

What also struck me greatly about 'Loop' was the sincere way it was written and how it handled a relevant and not easy topic so tactfully and honestly, as well as with complexity. As well as the deeply touching story that was so easy to relate to and enough to make one feel empathy at a time where controversy and prejudicial judgement is high. As an autistic person, this connected with me so much emotionally.

Renee is a fantastic role model, a positive one and Pixar definitely did their homework on making her as authentic as possible. Am very big on relatability, which can be very important to me and Renee, Marcus (especially Renee, whose point of view 'Loop' is told from) and their complex bond definitely apply here. 'Loop' may seem simple but when thinking about it the content is quite complex for an animated short film.

Overall, brilliant. 10/10.
