Idiots and Angels (2008)
Watched by JarvixSchmarvix on May 19, 2026
I like the concept & animation, but it's hardly enough to sustain a feature-length film. Even as someone who loves visual storytelling without dialogue and is on board with Bill Plympton's signature sense of humor and characterization, I found this pretty weak. The plot's thin, the people are stereotypes, and despite a 5-man animation team that's 60% women, it plays into sexist tropes from start to finish. Unfortunately, this belongs back in the 1980s when machismo satire got by without nuance.
