visual irritation
Original and freshThis is one of the better CG videos out there. The grafix were fresh and original. However the music could have been better. My suggestion would be to play something from your own selection when watching this DVD. Having said that, I feel this DVD is a good buy for any fan of CG video.
Odyssey: The Mind's Eye Presents Computer Animation Marvels
Released in DVD by Image Entertainment (19 October, 1999)
The short films in this collection juxtapose an impressive technical sophistication with simple, derivative ideas, many of them borrowed from old Warner Bros. shorts. But the jokes are badly timed, and the animation lacks the feeling of weight and the sense of character that made these gags work. "The Physics of Cartoons, Part 1" attempts to evoke old cartoons, but the timing is so leaden, the designs so unappealing, and the animation so lifeless, it falls flat. "Pets" is a shameless rip-off of Nick Park's "Creature Comforts." Various domestic animals describe their lives, but the voices and animation are devoid of the charm that won Park his first Oscar. "Carved Journey" and "H20" are technical exercises, with no narrative or point of view.
A few films rise above the mediocrity. In "Ticked Off," a pair of wart hogs debate joining Noah's voyage, a situation that recalls Gary Larson's "The Far Side." The idea of illustrating the old hand game is a clever one, but "rockpaperscissors" goes on far too long. "Bingo," a very elaborate, obviously costly effort at Absurdist theatre, takes just short of forever to go nowhere. --Charles Solomon

Not What I expectedI was expecting a flowing visual story with interesting shapes blended with many colors. I must be really off on what computer animation means being that this DVD was computer animation. I was very disappointed and feel that I wasted my money. I didn't even watch the entire thing. I just kept skipping through it. There were break ups of the DVD in short skits that weren't interesting, and the music was awful...kind of reminded me of elevator music. Unless you just have the money to blow and want a odd DVD, leaving you with little knowledge and experience to add to your life...I suggest something like Dinosaurs or Fantasia. This will be a HUGE disappointment for those who are looking for some type of uplifting feeling or think this could be touching.
UNA BASURA ( SOLO SE SALVA EL CORTO DE BINGO )Este DVD se salva SOLO por el corto de Bingo el resto es pura BASURA digital.
Get this one for the kidsMy kids love this DVD for the cute animation and characterization. For example, there is a segment takeoff on rock, scissors, paper where they come to life and try to get eachother. No, it doesn't break and new ground in computer animation, with the exeption of Bingo, but it is among my kids favorites and I reccommend it for that genre.

This one is better than "The Call" but I still wish I had not bought it. I feel fooled by the cover art and the other customer reviews.
