Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Yufei Guo This is really an extremely simple story. My friends posted this film on Chinese twitter and said she cried. After watching for about three minutes, I suddenly realized what my dream was. My dream has been thrown away by me for a long time. I am starting to adapt to my current lift. But as Steve Jobs mentioned, if I die tomorrow, this is not the exact job I would like to continue to do. Then I checked the World Bank Group's website and noticed the job they posted will be closed tomorrow. So I applied immediately. No matter what the result will be, I will keep my dream alive in the future and do my best to realize it.I hope everyone can find their dream deep from their heart.

wholeheartfriend just awesome!! It's been a while since I've encountered something a marvellous animation-short, that tells such a great story in just a couple of minutes. It has all the elements which made this sweet little KIWI touched so many people: Humor and drama and everything in between. I started off screaming from laughter by the way he (she?) moved and its persistence in the undertaking of this enormous task (!), but was also choked by the drama which evolved, and the inescapable ending that was (wisely enough not graphically exploited), the distant sound of KIWI hitting the ground was chilling and heartbreaking and truly had an impact. But hey... I'm one who have always cried and laughed at animation movies since way back in 1953, when I was 3. And still I enjoy this art after 55 years and will, till the day I die probably.Let's hope the talent of this guy will be recognized and that he will be given the chance to make more movies that really tell a story and move people all over the world. He deserves this BIG TIME. I only saw this movie for the 1st time a couple of days back (June 06, 2008) and it had by then been viewed over 17.5 million times at Youtube. That's a lot of THUMBS UP and one heck of a standing ovation!

simonsayz-1 In the time and age of cookie-cutter-CGI "comedies" featuring talking animals and supposedly cool pop culture comments, the magic of what animation can really achieve is often forgotten. Only Pixar reminds us continually of the wonderful opportunities animation has in its storytelling, both in its visuals and its characters. Yet I can think of no animation film outside of Pixar classics such as "Toy Story" 1 & 2 or "Monsters. Inc." that takes you from laughing to crying to the place in between - and in 3 minutes nonetheless."Kiwi!" shows how it's done. For starters, its title (and single) character is silent - no silly one-liners here. And yet, he is a fully developed character and the fact that he gets characterized simply via mimic and gestures is one of the many wonderful things the creator has achieved. We know everything we kneed to know about kiwi - his dream and what it means to him. The animation is simple but distinct. Kiwi's big expressive eyes endear him to the viewer as does his resourcefulness in his preparations. The animation's clarity adds to the overall effect and the theme music is great also.One should not talk about details of the story for fear of spoiling the experience. Again, it's a simple one, almost fable-like. It uses its diminutive bird protagonist to say something profound about the human condition - how far one would go to achieve one's dreams. By the time a tear shows in Kiwi's eyes - there will be tears welling up in yours as well.It might sound like hyperbole, but it really isn't. Go to YouTube and see this - it is three minutes of animation perfection.

MrVibrating This wonderful little animation is the sweetest, cutest and most emotionally engaging little movie you'll see in months.The animation is simplistic, and works really well. The score, the same. The cuteness is not overdone, and works just perfectly. Check it out on Youtube and enjoy. There is really not much to say about it, just watch it and love it.Almost brings a tear to my cynical eye, which doesn't happen every day!Check it out today and be a little happier...what more can I say? 10-line rule go to hell, more comments than this ruins it!
