Ernest & Celestine: A Trip to Gibberitia review

Much like it’s predecessor, A Trip to Gibberitia is a visual masterpiece, with wonderful 2D animation that makes it feel like a true children’s book come to life. Such a style of animation is always welcome.

It follows on the end of the first Ernest & Celestine movie, quite deconstructing the fact that they’re broke. This motivates them to go to the titular land to get Ernest’s violin fixed, and what follows is a standard “obtuse father/ruler prevents something because of bad blood with their son”. Still, for a cliché it is well played, and the the story manages to still be original and very emotional.

A heavenly recommendation
