I thought that the plot of this film was great. The story of a clumsy janitor who had a dream of singing on stage was entertaining to me.
A little alien is a janitor in a hotel bar. He is singing along with the main act when he accidentally spills water on the mico cord, cutting the music.
The story of "The Chubbchubbs!" is a cute one, the animation is pretty solid and the voice-acting and singing aren't too shabby either, but somehow something was missing to make this slightly-under-six-minute short film really memorable for me.
This is going to be a tough review to write, since the subject is only a 5 minute short, but I felt compelled to after learning that this 2002 release won the Oscar for Best Animated Short, which I felt really wasn't justified.A test animation by Sony Pictures Imageworks, "The ChubbChubbs!
This short movie won the makers the Best Short Animation Oscar in 2003. I agree with it.
This is a cute little CGI short. A character that looks something like Yoshi from the Super Mario Brothers series of Nintendo games is a down-and-out janitor at a nightclub where he dreams one day of singing on stage--except that he's a terrible singer and clumsy at that.
Chubbchubbs!, The (2003)** 1/2 (out of 4) Oscar-winning animated short has an alien working at an alien bar of all places where he dreams of becoming a singer.
