Film Review – Dave Made a Maze

“Dave Made a Maze” plays like a short film that spun out of control, unable to contain its big ideas, colorful characters, and bottomless appetite for homegrown visuals. It emerges from the mind of co-writer/director Bill Watterson, a longtime actor and once a mighty production assistant, who pours every last drop of imagination he can find into the oddball creation, which offers a striking odyssey into the shared uncertainty of milennials, who face domesticity, scarcity of work, and management of expectations often without a proper outlet for crippling fears. And it’s all stuffed inside a puppet theater-style explosion, with Watterson doing a fine job juggling tone and providing enough visual oddity to make this strangely sincere cardboard adventure work for much of its run time.  Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
