"the runtime, which ends up educating audiences in the most simple of ways. Beautiful score by John Carroll Kirby. Cryptozoo is undoubtedly one of the most shockingly violent 2D animated movies I've ever seen... and I write this both as a compliment and a disclaimer to sensitive viewers. Dash Shaw delivers what might be one of Sundance's most divisive films both due to its visual content and its narrative/character choices. The voice work from the entire cast deserves praise, namely Lake Bell,"
