Phil Tippett: Mad
Dreams and Monsters—worth watching bio-pic documentary—educates its
audience about the process of stop motion and go-motion animation by using the
example of top-notch animator Phil Tippett. While this movie may be of
high-level interest to film schools as an easy introduction to this type of
animation and how it was used in high profile movies, like Star Wars, the
film can also be highly appreciated by movie enthusiasts and film buffs. The
documentary is well presented, has good interviews, and has high educational
value. A viewer may wish for a little more in-depth review of Phil Tippet’s
personal life, but know Mr. Tippet’s wife chose to completely support his professional
work by working with him to build the business. It’s a very good watch to see
what Phil Tippet created himself and collaborated with others to make. The
movie emphasizes the dedication needful when one works within the entertainment
industry. Overall, a terrific watch.
