    is moved to tears of joy as the film closes. The film is sublime. It’s funny and insightful as it creates very different worlds for its two characters, and yet it doesn’t shy away from the harsher aspects of the lives of Mary and Max. BARRY HUMPHRIES narrates and he does it beautifully. The animation perfectly suits the story, it was five years in the making and it’s worth every minute. Comment: I found this film very tough going- it is undoubtedly a well made film and has some clever and quirky

    choices the film employs are what makes the film hilarious. From this perspective, Will Leitch, a film critic from the New Republic, finds many of the comedic styles funny. On the other hand, others argue that the comedy is rather juvenile and offensive. In the words of Andrew O’Hehir, one of this view’s main critic, the film is “a juvenile, sex-obsessed cartoon.” In sum, then, the issue is whether the comedic styles of this film adds to or subtracts from this film. My own view is that this film was overall
