Isle of Dogs [Sun: Eng]
The dog flu virus has spread in Japan and despite the insistence of a scientist named Professor Watanabe that he is about to find a cure, the mayor has decided to ban all dogs to the island, including Atari's dog. Six months later, Atari is stealing a plane and flying to the island in the hope of finding the dog 'Spot'.

Isle of Dogs is proof that Anderson has the same ability to captivate audiences both in live action and animation. [Full Review in Spanish]March 29, 2018
A delight, albeit one that is red in tooth and claw.March 27, 2018
Even with a narrative that feels more like a diagram, even with some questionable decisions regarding cultural translation, Isle of Dogs bursts with its maker's drollery and contagious passion for the medium of film.May 08, 2018
Working in this animated style, allows Wes Anderson to flourish with his style and allows all other cinematic elements to pop out more than they do in his live action films. [Full Review in Spanish]May 09, 2018
As a work of animation it is beyond reproach...as a cultural statement, it just leaves a few too many uncomfortable question marks.April 06, 2018
Anderson's projects have always had a meticulous quality to them, but "Isle of Dogs" is exacting to the point of alienation. Someone needs a leash.March 28, 2018
It remains more a dazzling conceit or experiment rather than a realized whole. We stay on the outside, admiring its originality and all the talent that went into it, without ever really finding our way in.May 08, 2018
[Isle of Dogs] is an inversion of "dog is man's best friend." Here the man (or the kid) is dog's best friend. [Full Review in Spanish]May 03, 2018
Art should be about breaking down barriers, not putting up walls.March 28, 2018
Maybe I'm just a cat person.May 07, 2018
The Wes Anderson's second stop motion movie is a visual feast that showcases his gift for detail and control. [Full review in Spanish]March 28, 2018
Isle of Dogs is in need of a stronger storyteller. And, yes, there are times when the cleverness starts to feel smug. I would have liked Isle of Dogs more if there had been less of it.
