Review of 10 Lives

10 Lives (2024)
3/10
Solid animation but not the greatest animated movie
29 January 2024
Watched this at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival.

Clearly, this movie isn't for me and really for children. I do enjoy some children's animation as I love to support animators and animation movie creating some interesting stories. But this animated movie felt dry and lacking to what could have been an pretty entertaining story.

Throughout, the animation models, colors, and designs were solid as there are some good structures but some structures look poor like some kind of bad social media animated app. The voice performances were solid but some of the performances, especially the main lead, was pretty annoying. The narrative is an interesting concept about nine lives and cats but because of the bland direction, the writing doesn't feel as creative nor engaging to connect with.

The characters weren't really interesting and I found myself pretty bored. Animated movies usually shouldn't bore me even if they are not my demographic but this one really seems to hit the note.

Overall, not a very good movie. If you want a fun cat animated movie, I recommend The Amazing Maurice as that movie has some creative ideas and fun characters.
