Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.

Michael_Elliott Dots (1940) ** 1/2 (out of 4)This early short from Norman McLaren basically has a bunch of dots appearing on the screen and moving around to the music score.I went on a binge of McLaren shorts and this was the last one that I watched and it was also one of the least interesting. There's really nothing ground-breaking here, which is okay but at the same time there's really nothing that entertaining either. I'd argue that the best thing about the movie were the sound effects, which were quite catchy and certainly memorable.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Dots" is a Norman McLaren short film still a while before his Oscar and this one is really short, foes not even reach the 150-second mark and that already includes a lengthy introduction in all kinds of languages. He made this one during World War II, but I don't think there are any political references in here. It is really just, like the title states, blue dots and other shapes on red background. I quite liked the sound effects here, they fit nicely to what we saw. Nonetheless, this is not a good film and watching it more than once would make it really boring. I am glad it was so short, because otherwise it may have dragged pretty quickly. I cannot recommend "Dots", I have seen better and worse from McLaren.
