Disney/PixarPixar is back - the bold, creative Coco washes away the bland taste of The Good Dinosaur and Cars 3. While not quite as clever as Inside Out or Wall-E, Coco manages to tell a family-friendly story centered entirely around death, one that reflects on the legacy we leave behind. Well, Coco is preceded by a soulless Frozen spin-off centered around Olaf the irritating snowman. Anyway, once you make it past the Olaf ordeal, Coco proves to be a pleasant surprise - an emotional, philosophical story of life and death, that despite the gorgeous visuals, doesn’t sugar-coat anything. Her father abandoned her to pursue a musical career, and to this day, the family has not forgotten the betrayal.
