Absolutely Perfect!

'The Peanuts Movie' is the much welcome return of Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and the whole gang. I was a huge fan of 'Peanuts' as a child. And I can happily say that this new version completely embodies everything that made the comics/cartoons so great. It's an absolute perfect representation of the classic style, brought to us with updated animation and a lively vibe. Every character is exactly how you remember them. Every detail of this world is lovingly recreated. It's as if Shulz himself worked on this movie. The story is a small personal journey for Charlie Brown, his main goal being to confront his crush. Through his good will, and the help of friends/loyal dog companion, he finds his self-worth and confidence. The outcome of his trials truly warmed my heart. These are the kind of easily understood life-lessions that children's films should strive for. It's so nice to see a 100% G-rateed animation that effortlessly plays to all ages while never taking it's youngest audience for granted. I laughed continuously and never stopped smiling through the entire runtime. It was an experience of pure joy from begging to end! 'The Peanuts Movie' is the sweetest, most charming thing to come to cinemas in a long time. I loved it!
