Beautiful and moving. Who could ask for more from an animated film about Cuban jazz musicians?

This film is unlike anything I ever saw. The animation is astounding, so different from Pixar or CGI. People were alternately laughing at the... e, especially the Cuban scenes, and really crying at the end (not me, much...) The music is fantastic, lots of Latin Jazz. Worth a trip to the art cinema. Scored points with wifey! Full Review

This is definitely animation for grown-ups - its look is voluptuous, sexy and sultry; its Latin-inflected Dizzy Gillespie sound is seductive; and its story of young lovers whose passions are tested is timeless.Full Review

This is the kind of sophisticated storytelling you rarely get even in live-action movies any more, full of unexpected turns and unruly human complications.Full Review

The music is terrific. Idania Valdes dubs Rita's sensuous, smoky singing voice, and the film is essentially constructed as a musical.Full Review

Chico and Rita beguiles first and foremost as a bebop romance that evokes a bygone era as well as, or maybe even better than, "The Artist."Full Review

The picture's real achievement though, is the warmth it brings to the music that animates the lives of these Afro-Cuban characters.Full Review
