Too many fans seem to be blown away

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

This is a fantastic little adventure that people of all ages and languages can enjoy. In response to the unnecessary and blind 4/10 review posted before this one, what the bloody hell is wrong with you? "Didn't feel connected to the characters." Seriously? It's a 9 minute short film, and yet the characters were fun and entertaining to watch. Whether you feel a connection or not is rather irrelevant in this instance. It's animation style is rather unique and very colourful. It was a pleasure to watch. 'The Reward' contains humour, satire, simple life lessons, and even spawned a short series. To give an animation like this such an abhorrent score is wrong. For those of you who are interested in this, please ignore that 4/10 review. Besides, it's 9 minutes long. It is more than worth your while.

"The Reward" is a 9-minute animated short film from 2013, 3 years ago. It is a Danish production by Mikkel Mainz Elkjær and Kenneth Ladekjær, but there is no dialogue in here foreign audiences can also watch and appreciate this little film without subtitles. I must say I struggled a bit with the "appreciate". It is the story of two young men who are forced to join each other on a treasure hunt that goes on for a really really long time and includes physical as well as emotional sacrifice. Will they be successful eventually? Honestly, I must say I did not care at all. First of all, this film lacked a proper introduction to the main characters which is also a main reason why I quickly lost interest in the two. I never identified with them, I never felt for them. The animation is also nothing too great here and same goes for the story. have to give this one a thumbs-down. Not recommended.
