Rookie-Critic's Top 25 Films of 2022: #4: Marcel the Shell with Shoes On (dir. Dean Fleischer-Camp)

Our next entry was nominated in the Animated Feature Film category at the Oscars, although I'm not sure if I would consider this truly an animated film. Regardless, this one's possibly the sweetest film from last year.

What a charmer, Marcel is. This little shell with shoes on gets the award for the most adorable character of 2022, and it helps that the whole film is one gigantic uplift of a movie. The creativity in the set pieces, in the way Marcel and his fellow shells maneuver the big world around them, and the heart the little guy puts into every action he takes is just so wonderful. Not to mention how hilarious it all is. The jokes in the film never miss, and, like all the best family entertainment, there are jokes in there aimed at the adults in the room that are innocent enough to go right over the heads of the younger ones in the audience. Jenny Slate delivers a career-best performance as the titular Marcel, bringing all of the child-like wonder and hope to the role that all of us could use more of. However, as amazing as Slate is, the real show-stopper performance in this one goes to Isabella Rossellini as Marcel's grandmother, Nana Connie, who acts as Marcel's sole companion for most of the film. There is a scene involving Nana Connie and a ladybug in this movie that could easily take the top spot for "Most Moving Film Moment of 2022." It's a unbelievably beautiful moment that moved me to tears in a film that had, up until that point, been mostly just good, wholesome, sweet fun, and it has forever cemented a place in my heart because of it. The film is done in a mockumentary style, with director Dean Fleischer-Camp inserting himself into the film, like the Rob Reiner to Marcel's Spinal Tap, and it makes everything feel very intimate. Marcel isn't just a little claymation figure, he is a fully realized personality. We see Marcel candidly, like we'd see anybody else, and it makes his tiny world feel very real, and very big. We see the world the way Marcel does: vast, wonderful, and full of the possibility that something so seemingly endless brings. A film so good-natured, with characters so lovable, that daring to dislike anything about it feels tantamount to turning away the love of a puppy. Please watch Marcel the Shell with Shoes On. Allow this little shell boy to sweep you away on an adventure that will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you fall in love with all the tiny, wonderful things the world has to offer (Marcel included).

Currently streaming on Showtime.

Big mouth season 3 (Spoilers obvs)

This season was like so fucking good, I mean the way they construct the conflict for the finale is so well written, but putting how great the show is aside, this are my most burning thoughts after watching it, they are not in any specific order.

I needed more on screen punishment for that pice of shit misogynistic piece of shit Lizer

Big Mouth really said Bobby Berk does all the job don't they??

Nick Kroll, saying "Sweetheart how old are you?"

I DEMAND a B-roll of the fab five recording their voices for the episode, I mean I need to see Karamo and Tan's face reading his lines

I agree with Jay, the WWP segment was HEARTBREAKING

How are they going to fuck up Coach Steve new look??

Jesse's cute little vag with her speech in his tiny little labia hand🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 also Kristen Wiig

DeVon and Devin, OMG they are so toxic!!! But like that's the most middle school thing ever?? We all either knew that couple or were that couple.

I don't want Jesse to go, I mean I know they would found a way to bring her back but it was just sad.

Ali Wong, I really need to say more?? Se fucking rules

They really animate a shirtless Antoni didn't they?

Jay and Missy being friends and writing fanfiction is just so freaking cute!!!

I love Nick, but Andrew is right, he is a terrible friend.

Mathew having a nice story line that resolved without major conflict and been happy in the end? I love it.

Fred Armisen is so good all the time, but this he was just perfect

We finish each other *seagull sound* I need to see Antoni making seagull sounds!!

Duke episode was so amazing, I mean if you take all the furry cute dicks apart (that's a fucking weird sentence) it was a very mature episode.

Really great takes on toxic masculinity and sexism, of course some dumb jokes along the way but hey is Big Mouth you guys know how it goes.

Taylor Swift at the end baby!!
