This is an excellent short. So many CG shorts seem to be mere technical displays, but in this short, the technical aspects of the animation are at the service of the themes of the film. And that is part of what makes it great. As another reviewer noted, there are hints of Jeunet. Everything works together well, and the music theme is a great little piece, too. Original, well-executed, and exceptional.

Odd animated Polish short with an amusing pay-off, but not much else. Okay.

Morbid fun 4 everyone..very good

This is so fucking original that it deserves more than an 82 (which was my original score). Not only the idea is great, the entire feel of this movie works for me. The way they picked out: the characters, the music, the filming, the style of animation, the ending, ... . Simply amazing

I like the animation better than a lot of other companies'. I would like to see the completed work of General A and see his theatre full. Hehe.

Something morbidly wrong with the dance, but I LOVED it.

funny and charming

Absurd. Funny. Uncomfortable. Given it's whooping 6 minute runtime and availability on youtube, I just don't know if I dare recommend this over, say, any random ridiculous clip you can find online. Arh. Hell, I'm a risk taker: Recommended viewing.

Very cool.

The designs are interesting, the CGI is colorful and smooth, and the concept was a surprising blend of twisted and hilarious; just the way daddy likes it.

The Seventh Seal meets the Nightmare Before Christmas.

Baginski is clever enough to figure out little glamour and photorealism in 3D animation will lead him nowhere in near future. It will just become too easy and commonplace. Fallen Art gives clues that we'll be hearing a lot about him. Must see.

I enjoyed the weirdness, macabre aura, and the hilarity of the mad dance. However, it was also completely pointless, besides the cliched, BS allegory of war being pointless, bloody, and generals not valuing the lives of their men. If such a juvenile, simplistic message was indeed at the core of this work, I am less impressed than my score would indicate. It's alright.

Morbid humor.

This film has more brilliance in 6 minutes than thousands (if not millions) of other films can ever hope to have in 2 hours.

Interesting.

Danse macabre in its true form. Bonus points for a universal language ;)

Fucking awesome. That's all you need to know.

Cool little ideas that are well executed.

It looks a lot like a video game cut scene but it's twisted and hilarious and well worth your 5 minutes.

Stunning animation combined with some dark humor. Nice, but I feel a tiny bit guilty for finding it funny

A brilliant little piece of art.

Very well done and fun to watch, but the story is either pointless or, it it has a point, it is a silly one.

Very reminiscent of Jeunet in the color, lighting, environments and tone.
