Cells At Work (2024)
Directed by: Hideki Takeuchi

Oftentimes, we use โrollercoaster of emotionsโ to describe a movie experience. But hold your horses, this phrase will have its new and profound meaning as soon as you encounter ๐๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ด ๐๐ต ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ.
Itโll make you relive tons of showsโfrom ๐๐ช๐ต๐ข๐ฏ๐ช๐ค, ๐๐ฏ๐ด๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ ๐๐ถ๐ต, ๐๐ฉ๐ฐ๐ด๐ต ๐๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ, ๐๐ณ๐ฎ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏ, ๐๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฏ๐ข๐ญ ๐๐ถ๐ฏ๐ด๐ฉ๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ง ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ต๐ญ๐ฆ๐ด๐ด ๐๐ช๐ฏ๐ฅ to ๐๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ด๐ฌ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ขโbut on a different light. The experience is familiar yet one-of-a-kind.
Aiming to visualize how cells interact inside our body, this film takes biology to unexpected places. Learning has never been this fun and emotional.
Whether youโre a kid at heart or already have kids, you are welcome here. Whether youโre a science genius or a movie enthusiast, you are safe here. Regardless of age and profession, this film always finds its way to be easily understandable.
It may not be technically perfect in vfx editing and production, but it works wonders in its story and direction. The fight scenes are meaningful, capturing the essence of fight for your life. The characters, from every cell to an actual person, are all relatable.
At first, the events and information are shared in pieces. But when theyโve been placed together, the result is a masterpiece.
From giving an existential crisis to a cathartic experience, a rollercoaster ride would now be an understatement to describe ๐๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ด ๐๐ต ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ.
This film did an outstanding work.
Itโs your time to put in the work and watch ๐๐ฆ๐ญ๐ญ๐ด ๐๐ต ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฌ
