Movie: Isle of Dogs (2018)**

Isle of Dogs is a stop-motion animated movie by Wes Anderson that essentially comes down to the relationship of a boy searching for his best friend, his dog. This movie started off visually dull and slow in its story blooming, so much so that I started to lose interest, think about other things, and eventually I fell asleep. The next night I picked up where I left off, from what was labeled as part 3, and that to the end was more exciting, but only compared to first half.
I'm not huge on animation, and I find that Wes Anderson is sometimes too quirky for my taste. For that reason, Isle of Dogs gets two stars**. I don't really care if I see this, again, and in fact, if I want to see a touching relationship between a child and their pet, I'd watch Okja.
