Although I sometimes doubt that this movie is for children, my kids enjoyed it as much or more than I did when we saw it in the theater.
The celebration of the night of the dead in Mexico is apotheosic and the characters undoubtedly capture the viewer's attention, both for their actions and for what they represent within the family.
The music is undoubtedly an element that gives the plot more than enough reasons to delight us, as the protagonist, a twelve year old boy named Miguel Rivera dreams of emulating his deceased idol Ernesto de la Cruz, but his mother refuses to allow this to become a reality.
For this reason, going to the world of the dead will be an opportunity to learn secrets that will change everyone's life.
The boy's participation in the local music contest turns out to be an adventure in the face of the obstacles that his grandmother Elena puts in his way.
The film is full of feelings, noble actions and structural changes in the script that lead the audience from laughter to tears.
Undoubtedly Coco, the name of the grandmother of the young man who waits for a certain moment to go to accompany his family in the other world, is a film to watch many times, especially for those of us who are not Mexican and are not familiar with the rites of that country.
For me it is the best option in a long time in the range of children's films.
