Movie Reviews

Simple Fun by a Stop-Motion Master
BlaskoFilms | Coon Rapids, MN United States | 01/10/2006
(4 out of 5 stars)

"Hamilton Mattress is brought to life by a very talented team of British artists and animators, including the great Barry Purves. Don't expect Wallace and Gromit (after all, it's made by different talent with different styles and different ideas), but this thirty minute made-for-TV special about an Aardvark on the search for something more in his life has enough flash and feel-good fun to spare. Certainly not his finest film overall, but watching a work by Mr. Purves is always a rare pleasure. The commentary track and documentaries are nicely done and informative as well.

If you're looking for more films by Barry Purves on DVD, check out his remarkable operatic short, Rigoletto, on the Operavox compilation. If you're unfamiliar with Barry Purves, check out his demo reel at www.acmefilmworks.com. I think you'll agree, you're witnessing the work of a master!
