Coco

Such an outstanding movie in every way! It has everything all great Disney/Pixar movies have - comedy, tragedy, moral lessons, plot twists, great original music, historical and cultural appreciation and representation, and stunning visuals. The plot was carefully constructed to incorporate knowledge of the Dia de los Muertos ("Day of the Dead") tradition without veering off from the protagonist's main dilemma. The issues that secondary characters experience are also well explored and tie into the story just perfectly. The moral lessons here (family traditions vs. pursuing one's passion) was depicted in such a way that both adults can relate to and that children can understand and learn from. Again, something that makes great Disney/Pixar movies great. Being as this is a movie about music, Disney/Pixar does a great job in finding the perfect balance of how many musical scenes there should be. Not only that, but pretty much every musical scene has some importance to the overall story. A great overall soundtrack for this film. Finally, the visuals. The visuals in this film are simply stunning. The artists did an amazing job with perfectly mixing in the colors and lights. Even in the darker scenes, the background colors and lights are integrated just right to not be distracting while still being visually pleasing and detailed. Impressive artwork! Now the biggest complaint I have with this purchase (not the movie itself) is the same as the rest of the reviews. No Spanish dub!!!!! With this movie having such a great cast in both the English and Spanish versions, why would both not be included? It's included in the physical copy of the movie, so why not include here? Disappointed in this. Overall, 5/5 for the movie but minus points for not having the Spanish version. 5/5 overall purchase quality. Would highly recommend to anyone!

Love the characters, music & culture in how the movie was put together. Very touching & heart warming.♥️

Coco is an American animated fantasy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures on November 22, 2017, in the United States, after a limited premier on October 20, 2017 at the Morelia Film Festival. The story follows the adventures of a 12-year-old boy named Miguel. In the village of Santa Cecilia, named for the patron saint of music and the hometown of the most famous musician in all of Mexico, Ernesto de la Cruz, there lived a young woman named Imelda who married Héctor, who eventually left her and their daughter Coco to pursue his dream of becoming a musician. When he never returns, believing he deserted, Imelda banishes music from her family, and she opens a shoe factory. The daughter, Coco, is now the family matriarch, who spans generations and connects everything, managing the business that supports and houses her family and descendants. Coco is Elena's mother, Elena is Enrique's mother, and Enrique is brought up following great-grandmother Imelda’s values and direction, dutifully upholding the family's music ban. Enrique is Miguel's father, Papá, and Luisa is Miguel’s mother, Mamá. Miguel, their 12-year-old son, has a passion for music but must keep it hidden from the family because great-great-grandmother Imelda forbids any notion of music. Even so, he secretly idolizes the deceased musician Ernesto de la Cruz and teaches himself to play guitar by watching Ernesto's old films, intent on pursuing music. Wanting to know more about the musical interests of his great-great-grandfather Héctor, he discovers a photograph that shows his great-great-grandfather Héctor holding Ernesto's famous guitar. Believing this proves Ernesto is his relative, Miguel tells his family he will become a musician. In response, Miguel's grandmother, Elena, destroys his guitar. This leads the distraught Miguel to break into Ernesto's mausoleum and take Ernesto's guitar to use it in a local talent competition. If a human disturbs or steals from a gravesite during Día de Muertos, the Day of the Dead, they turn into a spirit and remain trapped in the realm of the Land of Dead if they can't leave by sunrise. Once Miguel strums the guitar, he is transformed into a spirit, invisible to the living people but able to interact with his ghostly dead relatives (who are visiting on the Dìa de Muertos Day of the Dead and have the appearance of "living" skeletons), when the spirits of the dead are allowed to return to the tellurian Land of the Living for one night to celebrate with loved ones. Now thrust into the ethereal realm of the spirit underworld, the Land of the Dead, and fearful of being trapped there if he can't leave by sunrise, Miguel searches for Ernesto de la Cruz and the help of his great-great-grandfather Héctor to reverse his family's ban on music and to return him to the Land of the Living and his family. During this journey to the spirit underworld, Miguel encounters his ancestors and begins to understand where he came from and who he is meant to be, all the while overcoming many perils with the aid of friendly spirits and his ever-watchful animal spirit guardian guides, the Alebrijes, Dante and Pepita. Alebrijes are colorful, spirit animal inhabitants in the ethereal Land of the Dead, having supernatural abilities, able to see spirits and easily move back and forth between the tellurian world of the Land of the Living and the ethereal world of the Land of the Dead, to guide their companions in their journey through the spirit underworld to avoid permanently entering Tierra de los Muertos, the Land of the Dead, the final destination for spirits of the deceased; for their very nearly eternal existence in the ethereal Land of the Dead, the spirits depend on the memories of the living to continue to exist, and fade into oblivion, disappearing into light and dust, when they are no longer remembered. Dante is a very loyal doggie, a stray adopted by Miguel (although in reality it is Miguel who is actually adopted by Dante) to be his friend and companion. Miguel names his new doggie friend Dante after the name of his music idol Ernesto de la Cruz's horse. Dante is a Xolo doggie, a breed named after the ancient mythological Aztec god Xolotl, god of fire, lightning, and death, depicted as a terrifying, frightening, and scary dog. Dante isn't so scary, though he has special powers; he can transform into a fantastical Alebrije spirit guardian guide with bird-like wings and the ability to easily move back and forth between the tellurian world of the Land of the Living and the ethereal world of the Land of the Dead to help Miguel accomplish his quest. Pepita is great-great grandmother Imelda’s pet kitty, who is very protective of her; a very large Maine Coon cat with black stripes in the Land of the Living, and a fantastical chimera Alebrije animal spirit in the Land of the Dead; appearing ferocious and frightening, yet unable to speak and making only animal-like roars and noises, with a lion’s body, tiger face and teeth, ram horns, eagle claw feet and wings, and lizard tail, in stunning, fanciful colors, she is nonetheless intimidating; serving as Imelda's spirit guardian guide in the journey between the Land of the Living and the Land of the Dead; with impressive tracking skills, able to locate Miguel by sniffing the marigold petal Imelda blessed and he touched allowing Pepita to make Miguel's tracks glow a bright blue by breathing on them to track him down; and able to fly carrying more than one person on her back. The story, characters, and music are fascinating, charming, and beautiful; the visuals are artistically unique and amazing, ingeniously contrasting the human and ghostly inhabitants in the tellurian and ethereal worlds, captivatingly colorful and delightful beyond compare; and the moral is a legend that will endure through the ages. What a wonderful story of dreams coming true! With memorable music too! But there is more to this story than simply being an amusing animated musical drama. You will have to pay close attention when you watch this movie. It is intricate and complicated, and its complexities are more than intriguing; they are mysterious — very mysterious. This is a murder mystery! Yes, a murder mystery!

Great movie for all ages.

I got this cover. I don’t mind it.

I absolutely love this movie "Coco". It celebrates Dia de Los Muertos of the Latin culture. It is a beautiful way to honor our departed loved ones. My therapist recommended I watch this movie after losing both of my parents 7 weeks apart 3 years ago. I watched it the first time 3 years ago. It hit me hard and it took some time to process. This, being the 3rd year, I decided to watch it again. The movie made me realize as long as we remember our loved ones on the other side, they are always with us and us with them. I had to purchase the DVD. I'm starting a new ritual. I'm going to watch "Coco" on my parents anniversary and celebrate their lives. My worst fear was my parents would be forgotten. "Coco" taught me to remember. Remember who they were, how they gave me 46 chromosomes and a part of them lives on in me. As long as I talk about them, say their names (Michael and Donna), share good memories with loved ones they will always be etched in our permanent memories. I highly recommend this movie to anyone. Share it with your children to help them navigate the loss of a loved one in the most beautiful way humans can, through memory.

The Quality and The Condition Of It Were Great The Appearance Also Out Of This World And The Value Awesome Everything Was Perfect.

Wonderful movie. Get the tissues out.

Je cherchais depuis un moment la version espagnole et sous titre français, je suis aux anges un film très émouvant sur un sujet pas forcément évident "la mort".

Thank you! I’ve been looking to own this DVD so I can watch anytime I want とても良かったです! 再生にも問題無し! ただ、日本語はありません。

A treasure! Not in every country Disney released this 4k version of Coco. It's cristal clear and hi definition. Another advantage which many of the European releases didn't have the Latin Spanish audio. A must have for the fans, reasonably priced and well packed and delivered by rarewaves.

Sí tiene doblaje latino (mexicano). La imagen y sonido es excelente. El código para descargar la película sólo es válido en Estados Unidos.

Arrived veryy quickly, no complaints.
