Review of The Deer King (2021) by Hoai-Tran Bui for Slashfilm — 18 Jul 2022
While there are some truly jaw-droppingly beautiful visuals that speak to a greater imagination on Ando and Miyaji's part — they were animation directors for several acclaimed projects and have a keen eye for how to make things look good — the soul is missing.
The Deer King can't help but feel like a paint-by-the-numbers riff on greater films before it.
