Capítulos y párrafos dedicados en su totalidad a personajes y sus vivencias que siento no aporta nada a la historia original. Sinceramente hubiese preferido algo dedicado al pasado de esos dos, y no lo que ocurre con la familia mientras buscan a Miguel. Jessup called the marigold petal bridge that connects both worlds "elegant and magical". Michael K. O'Brien, the film's effects supervisor, called it "a huge technical challenge" for the animation team, but referred to it as something "so visually exciting with petals dripping from it; it was a massive artistic undertaking. [the production team] wanted it to glow — to feel alive". The scenes in which Miguel takes a few petals off of the bridge and in which Hector sinks into the bridge were given more effects and special art direction. [3] Both of my kids, who are 9 and 12 loved the book and really enjoyed being able to get inside Miguel’s head and learn a little bit more about how he feels and what he thinks through the book. Readers will also gain more perspective about some of the characters and the book also shares some more subtle details that could have been missed in the film and that help make a stronger connection and make it easier to understand some details of Miguel’s family story.

The first teaser of Coco was released on March 15, 2017. [45] The teaser trailer introduced the basic concept of the film while highlighting its focus on music. [46] Scott Mendelson of Forbes praised the trailer as "a terrific old-school Pixar sell, mostly consisting of a single sequence and offering just the barest hint of what's to come." [45] The film's themes and imagery drew comparison to another animated film that centered around el Día de los Muertos, The Book of Life (2014). [46] [47] A two-minute short film, titled Dante's Lunch – A Short Tail, was released online on March 29, 2017. It introduces the film's supporting character, a Xoloitzcuintle named Dante. The short was created early in the animation process by Unkrich and his team to have a better sense of the character. [48]

Michael Rechtshaffen of The Hollywood Reporter said, "At every imaginative juncture, the filmmakers (the screenplay is credited to Pixar veteran Molina and Matthew Aldrich) create a richly woven tapestry of comprehensively researched storytelling, fully dimensional characters, clever touches both tender and amusingly macabre, and vivid, beautifully textured visuals." [97] Robert Abele of TheWrap praised the film, saying: "If an animated movie is going to offer children a way to process death, it's hard to envision a more spirited, touching and breezily entertaining example than Coco." [98] In his review for Variety, Peter Debruge wrote, "In any case, it works: Coco 's creators clearly had the perfect ending in mind before they'd nailed down all the other details, and though the movie drags in places, and features a few too many childish gags... the story's sincere emotional resolution earns the sobs it's sure to inspire." Debruge also described the film as "[An] effective yet hardly exceptional addition to the Pixar oeuvre." [99] Matt Zoller Seitz of RogerEbert.com gave the film four out of four, writing that "There's a touch of Japanese master Hayao Miyazaki in the film's matter-of-fact depiction of the dead interacting with the living, as well as its portrayal of certain creatures" such as Dante and Pepita. He concluded his review by stating, "I had some minor quibbles about [ Coco] while I was watching it, but I can't remember what they were. This film is a classic."

Giardina, Carolyn (February 4, 2018). "Annie Awards: Coco Tops the Animation Celebration". The Hollywood Reporter. Archived from the original on February 4, 2018 . Retrieved July 4, 2022. I’m reluctant to describe the film’s plot in too much detail because, even though every twist seems obvious in retrospect, Molina and Matthew Aldrich’s script frames each one so that seems delightful and inevitable. Many of them are conveyed through a stolen family photograph that Miguel brings with him to the Land of the Dead. The deployment of the photo is a great example of how to tell a story through pictures, or more accurately, with a picture. Somebody’s face has been torn out; there’s a guitar that proves to be important later, and there are other ways in which visual information has been withheld from Miguel (and us) so that it can be revealed or restored when the time is right, completing and correcting an incomplete or distorted picture, and "picture.” a b Hall, Jacob (March 15, 2017).
