Sure,Pixar's short film Bao wasn't bad, I just didn't fully get into it.
A mother who misses his child, yes, I agree it's sweet and mothers will be able to relate to, but the way it is told just felt awkward to me with the whole food thing going on. Maybe it's just me, but seeing a living piece of food eating another piece of food out of which it was made in the first place is awkward.
But the music was very pleasing with its calming japanese instrumentation and once the rather disturbing food allegory is over we get the highpoint of the short at the end when the main character reunites with the one the whole thing was about.
This is a unique little short which I hope other will enjoy a little more than I did.
