Oktapodi Review



A short animated film about 2 octopuses which are in love with each other. Yes you read that right. And how the female is taken away and the male goes out of the aquarium to rescue his lover. As typical as it may sound, it was done with just the right amount of humor and excitement to keep us entertained throughout the 2 minutes animation.

Here's what that makes it not so typical, the 2 main characters are octopus, and the villain's a man. We've seen good guys take on the forms of robots, fishes and other odd beings but I have never seen an octopus being the "good guy" in a film as they usually are the villain. What makes the film interesting is that there's not a pause which makes you feel that a particular scene is draggy nor does it kills your attention.

There is not much to critique, this animation is short and sweet and if you were to look at it from a technical point of view, the animation, camera angles, and transitions were nicely done.

This video is definitely worth your 2 minutes of attention.
