Superstar Review

There is something to be said about Todd Hayne's ability to take such a serious subject matter and convey through something that is so light-hearted. The film could have easily been as cheesy as those Old-Navy commercials, but instead this was a really well done film that is a testament to film making. The cinematography is the film's strongest point, in my opinion. The use of the dolls and the voice actors really help to sell this movie for me. At some point, I honestly forgot that the story was being driven by inanimate objects. Despite the controversy surrounding Superstar, I think it is one of the more creative films I have watched.
