Cool World

CriticsCritics: 16
AudienceAudience: 4.8

A cartoonist recently released from prison is drawn into the bizarre animated world he created, where a seductive doodle seeks a way into the human world. A hard-boiled detective tries to enforce the boundary between humans and cartoons as a dangerous chase unfolds across both realms.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like adult animation, surreal fantasy, and strange live-action hybrids such as Monkeybone; Not for you if you want a clear plot, polished effects, or fully developed characters.
