Soar

A little girl dreams of flying but then meets a miniature of herself and assists that person in accomplishing flight. Nice animation and colorful images make it work well enough. I just wasn't taken by it as much as some. There is a charm to it, but it doesn't carry the film.

Soar is a beautiful and well-executed animated short film about a girl playing with toy planes and a tiny boy from the sky who gets separated from his people due to an accident. The story is emotionally intense, amplified by exaggerated facial expressions, frantic movements, and a carefully chosen musical score.

Interestingly, the music feels reminiscent of well-known theme songs-like those from The Lord of the Rings or Jurassic Park-yet different enough to be original. The narrative is captivating and includes several twists. I especially enjoy the kind of twist shown here, where hope briefly rises only to be dashed.

The final twist is both unexpected and satisfying-it transforms the short into a modern-day fairy tale. I really enjoyed it.

friendship. and fly. an accident. and the not easy success. in one of most touching manner. a film about simple things in precise manner. the flavor of fairy tale. the fear and the help. the patience. and the prize of effort. like each 3 D animation, it is seductive at whole. but not exactly for the images or animation itself but for a story who reminds manners to help, miracles and the pure joy. a girl. and a traveler. an accident. and the efforts to redefine the normal state. and the sky. Soar is one of precise gifts for redefine a form of seductive joy. naive. and well known. but important. for this splendid message.

Soar is a beautiful short film. It has Pixar or Disney world-class animation quality: crystal clear images, good movement, great backgrounds, beautiful natural colors, good play of lights, and cute characters. Technically excellent.

The film starts with a girl trying to fly a toy airplane, over and over again, following a design map, but without any success. Then she finds a little fallen creature and tries to help her fly again. And little more happens in the story. It is beautiful to watch, has a nice feeling and a beautiful ending.

I see this short film more as an exercise in animation than an exercise in movie making, as the narrative is weak. I'm not saying it is bad, as the story has many possibilities for development, and feels like a scene taken from a feature film where the story will be properly developed.But this is not the case, and so the story feels flat, underdeveloped and not well-rounded, just another cute short.

I honestly don't understand the low ratings on this film. In only six minutes it goes from frustration to heartbreak to ultimate triumph. The animation is beautiful, the story is sweet, I loved it. Beautiful little film.
