From the first moment in the movie Coco, as we entered a world full of colors, life and music, we felt positive energy and a state of happiness, as if we were in a huge celebration. The story is about Miguel, a boy who loves music despite his family forbidding it, and tries to achieve his dream even if it means entering the world of the dead and discovering big secrets about his family. The journey was full of moments of laughter and joy, especially with the charismatic characters like Hector and the charming scenes in the world of the dead that were designed with eye-catching creativity.
But in the midst of the joy that the movie drowned us in, there was a deep feeling of frustration and sadness, especially when we started to understand the truth and become more attached to the story. The moment of learning the fate of Hector was one of the most touching moments, and the realization that oblivion is the real death was shocking and painful. The idea that a person can disappear forever once no one remembers them was harsh, and made us think about the people who have passed from our lives, and how memories are the only thing that makes us feel that they are still with us.
Also, the idea that Miguel had to choose between his passion for music and his family made us feel tense, because it is a real problem that many people face in reality. The struggle between achieving dreams and pleasing the family is something most of us have experienced in one way or another, and this increased the emotional impact of the film.
In the end, Coco was a complete cinematic experience, able to make us happy with its songs and colors, and at the same time make us cry with its deep story and touching messages. It made us laugh and cry, feel hope and frustration, but in the end it left us with a warm feeling, as if it was telling us: "The one we love will never go away as long as we remember him." 🎶💜
