Reviews for "Smile!"

Orwellian... very Orwellian...

Reminds me of the book 1984 and the re-teaching in the 'Ministry of Love.'

This is something that you have to experience in your life before you truly understand the symbolism and the 'masks.'

I know... I have been there before...

very creepy and cool

but the ending ruined the feel of it

Remarkable

This animation speaks to me about all of the "happy", carefree, and normal people of society, who force those who wish to be different to dance to their tune, manifested in this video by the "SMILE" theme. It goes to show that underneath their skin, they're just a bunch of fascist perverts. Again, this is my interpretation, but I believe you really were effective in getting this particular message across. Great job.

Seek Magic

There are many people around who are here to fill the quota of writing reviews about interpretations and meanings, I am however not one of them and I prefer to keep my thoughts for myself, even if this case the message is quite evident, but not less striking. The animation is of course not the best, nor is it smooth, but it's basic enough to not disrupt the viewer's attention. Plus, this movie didn't need too much of animation.
As for the soundtrack, the fact you used a GYBE song is in your favour, for their music is brilliant and evocative. I assume it's no hasard if you used the song called Providence.

yea...

i saw this years ago too...
