Coco actually took a lot of inspiration from this movie! The Book of Life was released in 2014, where Coco was released in 2017. I remember falling in love with this movie when it first came out!
I love both movies but only thing I don’t like is people say coco was first and then book of life go inspired by coco but it was the other way that is only thing I hate not many people know of book of life and like everyone knows the movie coco
Pero ... Si the book of life es terrible ... Como latinoamericana... Es la peor película que he visto que intente representar a México, sobre todo porque hace mas referencias a España que a México... Terrible.
I love how this movie shows the real struggles between men and women how the world excepts and decribes them to be and it turns out the real nature between men and women.
And the struggles of your life being set by your parents and having those "legacy continuing" expectations. The general decided that Joaquin was going to be just like his father, and Carlos decided that Manolo was going to be a bullfighter, just like the rest of the family (that he shared with Manolo because there were actually non-bullfighter family members). Imo it was done better than Coco, with having to go against your moral compass to honor your ancestors and lie to people about who you are to play that role of "hero." (Joaquin was a softie I swear)
I love how Manolo and Joaquin are still friends even though they're rivals for Maria's love like Joaquin came to his bullfight and they somewhat supported each other
That's one of my favorite things about this movie. Manolo and Joaquin just stayed friends even though they were basically opposites, with Manolo refusing to continue with the family legacy and Joaquin becoming the town's hero like his father
20:46 This pirate character, Jorge Sanchez, was voiced by Placido Domingo, a famous opera singer. And one of the twin cousins, Adelita (she's the one not wearing an eyepatch) was voiced by one of my favorite comedians, Anjelah Johnson. Maria is played by Zoe Saldana (Gamora from "Guardians of the Galaxy".) And the Candlemaker was voiced by Ice Cube. The cast is STACKED for this movie.
Can we just appreciate how much TIME the one guy spent, setting up and lighting all those candles on the bridge before he proposed to her and she got bit? THAT is so sweet and romantic. It shows he cares about her.
Another thing about this movie is that Manolo and Maria are LITERALLY soulmates!! There was a spin off show called Maya And The Three that was on Netflix for a little bit, and it was about two demigods Maya and Zats who fell in love IN THE CUTEST WAY , and Manolo and Maria are confirmed to be their reincarnations who found eachother in another life😭❤️
La Muerte and Xibalba are actually married and have, like, twelve kids. Also if you love this movie, you should check out Maya and the Three, which is connected to this same universe
@@WibbleMnIt did seem like it was trying to copy the book of life especially with the whole "after life thing" and the "forgotten" thing AND the "Wanting to be a musician" thing Fr The Book Of life walked so Coco could run and ik that it took "Inspiration" from The Book Of Life but it's more like it copied it to be honest
Xibalba and Muerte's banter is everything! My fave scene in this movie is when Muerte screamed and Xibalba came in with the wine. It's like "Ah yes, my lover is screaming my name enraged...guess it's that time again."
The thing I like about Maria is that she isn’t represented as a weak or harmless woman she got a strong personality 😌 and she got a strong personality 🤔
14:42 Yeah by the looks of Rukiyas face she has a built up anger everytime Joaquin appears on screen It’s really funny how Rukiya gets really annoyed and angry at Joaquin through out this reaction 😂
I think it's interesting that manolo even as a child was super brave When Maria wanted to let the pigs out he wasn't afraid of the idea and supported it, when he was a kid his first instinct was to go head to head with a angry bore with a damn smile on his face as if he's done this before, as he grew older he was still fighting bulls like it's nothing, he was willing to fight bandits to protect the town, and was willing to die just for maria Like this guy is super brave
11:08 Manolo is singing a cover of "Creep" by Radiohead, because this is a jukebox musical, meaning that all/most of the songs weren't written for the movie and were already hit songs created by other artists.
I just wanna mention that the medal doesn't actually give him strength or something; it just makes him invicible/ immortal. So that strength and power are all him. I think it's good metaphor. He's confident with the medal and can do amazing things, but when it's gone he's scared and can't do anything. Confidence is key; you can be the most skilled person ever, but without the confidence to put those skills to use, there's practically nothing. I do like how in the end he gained confidence and was able to fight without the medal.
I know Manolo singing the "im a creep" song comes off as weird at forst lol, but when you look back on it, it really feels like its about how he never felt accepted by the town or his family for not wanting to bullfight. He doesnt belong bc hes seen as a "weirdo" by society. He feels such a gap between himself and Maria bc of their societal acceptance and status. Makes me wanna cry sometimes.was it just me tho?? Ayone ele have other theories?
This movie holds a dear place to me because the creator also did my fav show as a kid "El tigre: the adventures of Manny Rivera" you can even see the main characters at the start of the story as background characters ♡ It was the first cartoon I saw with mexicans characters potrayed in a good light ♡
May i just say how every female character in this movie is just so iconic? Like, most of the main guys look like 🏋♂ (Actually just the main 3) and the girls are all so memorable and have such iconic and distinct designs, i love all of them, they all slay.
I'm sad that Joaquin was neglected throughout this video, because there was still quite a bit of character to him. Similar to Manolo, he lived under his father's shadow, who was also a town hero (he was an orphan before the general took him in I believe) so he had a lot to live up to. The general also encouraged that saying "you're just like your father." In his eyes, he was doing exactly what he was raised to, his life's purpose of continuing his fathers legacy. Thats why the mustache bit, because his father had one, thats why he kept talking about his metals, because his father and the general had metals, and that's why he was arrogant, because he was filling the role of hero, the "yes, that is what I do, reward me like I have been before," it became expected because heroes get rewarded for their good deeds. He still deeply cared for Maria, somewhat seeing that she didn't actually love him when she felt pressured to marry him, and trying to tell her that she didn't have to. So even towards the end of the movie, he was still in that fantasy realm until Manolo showed him how to be truley heroic. He realized the error of his mindset, and his life basically playing pretend, and willingly throwing away what granted him that life, and trying to redeem himself by actually saving the town. He failed in that regard, but proved that he was done. "No more shadows" as he put it. He was going to create his own legacy. I think he's pretty underrated because people might assume he's cardboard like many third triangle characters, but he's so fleshed out. I love how they handled the love triangle trope, especially as I grew to love Joaquin. Also the "light and dark path" coding of their stories with La Muerte and Xibalba, and the generosity vs greed between Manolo and Joaquin. That beginning part really established their dynamics.
My heart when Manolo starts singing to the bull(s)! For so many years, bulls were killed by the Sanchez family for the entertainment of others. They wanted revenge, which they had every right. They didn't ask to be angered on purpose and slain. Then came Manolo with his guitar. He was the only Sanchez to give an incredibly heartfelt apology, understanding their anger. All they ever wanted was a genuine apology, someone in the family to acknowledge the injustice they had suffered. Now at last, they can rest in peace.
The song Manolo sings after the first bullfight when he says "im a creep" is Creep by Radiohead. It comes off very odd and misplaced but we love him for it it's okay 💕 I'm so glad you reacted to his masterpiece it's so fun to see people's reactions to GOOD underrated movies! You should consider watching surfs up or something similar! 💕
I loved his cover of the song. I think it being a odd rendition is the point. Especially cause of the lyrics like “im a creep, I’m a weirdo” idk if it’s just me
@@nqvsli no I totally agree. I think the song could have been good if he didn't do the chorus honestly Because the lyrics FIT Manolo except for "I'm a creep" however to his father he is a weirdo, he doesnt belong and he IS in love with Maria. But I totally agree.
Rukiya, so you saw the part where Maria's Dad said to Joaquin "you saved my life!" he likes Joaquin more than Manolo because Joaquin saved his life, but general posada is too happy to realize that Manolo saved the town too! (Also, candle maker looks like a cup of beer!)
@@RukiyaReacts u should try reacting to Kung Fu panda all three movies ,Atlantis underrated movie one ,Souls another underrated movie ,inside out , Anastasia one of the best and also underrated trust me it's amazing ,and Maybe Mulan the animated movie not the one they used real people in but cartoon one
So glad you reacted to this movie. It gets overlooked by Coco so often and Disney totally stole the themes and concept from this much smaller studio, which is a terrible shame. Disney also tried to copyright the phrase "Dia de los Muertos" for merchandise when Coco came out and got publicly lambasted for it. Book of Life also had a strong team of Hispanic writers, directors and producers from the start who wanted to make a fun movie that reflected their culture, while Disney seemed to shuffle together a handful of cultural consultants only after some of the backlash hit the public. And don't get me wrong, Coco is a lovely film, but it still comes off as stereotypically Disney and the behavior during production revealed that the film, regardless of good writing, truly only existed to make more money by exploiting cultures that the executives were not themselves a part of. Book of Life, of course, was crafted to make money too, but there was significantly more focus from the team working on it to tell a Mexican story by people from Hispanic heritage and that shows in the final product. TLDR; This movie doesn't get nearly enough love and Disney is a cooperate hydra that will do anything for money.
the culture of Hispanics (in this case, Mexico because of the holiday) is not so popular in cartoons, and as soon as it starts to be used in the plot of these cartoons, the cries about plagiarism immediately begin ((((these two beautiful animated masterpieces have a DIFFERENT plot, but the same concept, so what the hell is this а plagiarism? You probably also call all films about Christmas plagiarism of each other?
@@apelsinpark Last I checked, the focus on a main character who loves music and is raised in a family who hates it and sees musicians as lesser, has nothing to do with the holiday. To say nothing of going on a spirit journey to the afterlife and finding family members long past that also had a love of music and gave it up for the sake of the family as a whole. Earning approval from a parental figure through being yourself has nothing to do with Dia de los Muertos either. Sure there are differences, but the core values of the main characters beings so specifically similar rubs me the wrong way.
@@apelsinpark from what i remember reading, The Book of Life was presented to Disney in its early stages and they rejected it...and then started working on Coco, sooooooo idk. take that as you will
I used to be obsessed with this movie when I was younger, I’d watch it on repeat over and over, best movie I’ve ever watched, glad to see people are still watching this movie, and I’m glad u enjoyed it!
@@claragemheart581 exactly so much better than coco! ( no offense Disney ) coco May have better animation and what not, but story wise, cmon… BOOK OF LIFEEEEE
The romance in this movie it is just so cute. And Joaquim Is my favorite character he is so fun and his character development is great, his friendship with Manolo Is so sweet. I LOOOVE this movie. PS: I had a major crush on La Muerte
Please tell me I'm not the only one who sheds a thousand tears when Manolo was in the land of the dead and fighting all the bulls that every other Sanchez had killed every time they watch the movie.
I know "the Book of Life" has already drawn TONS of comparisons to "Coco" and vice versa. However, this is something I couldn't ignore once I noticed it. At 11:54, the voice of Pepe, one of Manolo's mariachi friends, is voiced by Gabriel Iglesias, aka "Fluffy." He's a very famous comedian who also happens to be Mexican-American, and I love his storytelling-style jokes. Gabriel Iglesias voiced another side character in "Coco," the clerk who tells Miguel and his family why he got stuck in the Land of the Dead and how to return him to the Land of the Living.
I forgot how much I love this movie,it’s been years since I watched it, I recently watched it again and I truly still haven’t changed a thought about it,the book of life is the best hidden gem ❤❤
This is my mom’s favorite movie, and I absolutely love the soundtrack in it, I mean at this point I might as well learn the Apology song on ukulele, haha
This is a little cute thing I found in this movie but at 27:30 to 27:34 when Manolo is seen coming back from the dead there is a heart shaped light around him showing that the love he has for Maria is so strong. It’s soooo cute❤❤😊
I love how Maria challenged the social norms that were placed in her town and how she defined her independence as well as being a boss b while doing it PERIOD😍
I LOVE THE BOOK OF LIFE!! I had it on DVD when I was little, and it raised me! My Spanish teacher was also named Maria Sanchez, and my 4th grade Spanish class watched this movie and we all had churros! :)
I'm so happy someone has recognized how beautiful this movie is! I remember seeing this movie with my dad and little sister when it first came out and I just fell in love with it! From the animation style, characters, plot, love sub-plot, and the Mexican folklore aspect of it all, it was just a huge blast for me!
I’m so excited to watch! this movie was a very big part of my childhood and culture growing up. I’m so glad it’s getting recognition, I love your videos! ❤❤
1) First of all it’s cat- how can I ignore cat? ITS. A. CAT! :D 💕 2) This color and styling looks so good on her! 3) This is honestly the best Guillermo del Toro movie and it deserves respect. 4) The humor is absolutely spot on. Everything that they made for comedy actually works and is funny. 5) THE SOUNDTRACK! The soundtrack is amazing and is on par with the Tarzan and Lion King soundtracks! Every song absolutely hits. I’m still upset we never got the full mariachi version of “If you think I’m sexy”, and the “I love you too much” scene was pure perfection. 6) Idk if it’s true but in my head canon, I like how Manolo doesn’t have a mustache/any facial hair. All the other “manly masculine family manly mans” all have mustaches. Meanwhile Manolo wants to be himself even if it isn’t what a stereotypical man should be. He cares more about following his heart vs suppressing it to please a public image. It really makes him stand out and show he’s different from everyone else. 7) The voice cast did an absolutely amazing job. Ron Pearlman as Xibalba and Ice Cube as the Candle Maker was so unexpected but they worked so well for their characters! They’re one of my favorites from this movie :) 8) I absolutely love that Joaquin isn’t a villain but instead just has more of a friendly rivalry/competition with Manolo that Xibalba makes more serious- he thickens the issues between the two when before Manolo and Joaquin just argued like brothers, and when they reunite again they’re excited like brothers missing eachother because they truly are brothers. When Manolo died, he was trying really hard not to cry when he had to break the news to Maria. You can hear his voice crack and he had to look down, close his eyes, and shake his head to stop his watery eyes. He actually wants Maria to mourn, but her father pushes the issues of her hurrying up and marrying Joaquin; Joaquin even told the General, who is Maria’s father: “General please now is not the tim-“ and the general cuts him off motions for Joaquin to stop talking which Joaquin respects because it’s an elder and the father of the girl he’s trying to marry. He even tried telling Maria she didn’t have to accept the proposal after Manolo’s death but she also cuts him off before he can finish talking. He knew it wasn’t right to take advantage of the situation and he doesn’t want Maria marrying him if she doesn’t want to. You see him hestitate when he wanted to mourn over Manolo and at the alter when Maria says “for San Angel, I do”. Even before we physically saw grown Maria, Joaquin compliments Manolo in his first bull fight before he goes to the arena that he’s happy that Manolo finally took bull fighting seriously because Joaquin knew Manolo was struggling with his identity and how it differs from the family legacy vs Joaquin who looked up to his father and his sacrifice, follow his father’s foot steps, and be exactly like him- as great as a hero as his dad if not better. Joaquin and Manolo were talking and even teasing eachother before the race to win Maria as adults: Joaquin: “We got some pretty big shadows to fill” Manolo: “Ha…huuuuge.” Joaquin: “Hey, brother, may the best man win Maria” You can hear it in his voice he doesn’t want to be competing with Manolo cause he cares about him, and impressing Maria is bittersweet since it hurts Manolo. Everything between Manolo and Joaquin was so heartfelt- they never had any ill will towards eachother even if they were both trying to win the same girl over. They easily could have made Joaquin vengeful and petty, but instead he respects both Maria and Manolo’s decision since he wants them to be happy, and he still loves them both. The trio stayed together regardless of what happened and they all still love, respect, support and care for eachother 🖤❤️💙 I will never comprehend how this movie is so criminally underrated.
I love this movie, and I've always watched it in Spanish, so it surprised me that here they call her "la muerte" and in the Spanish dub is "la Catrina"
@@georgiedenburrito87 Catrina* yeah I know, what surprised me is that they didn't call her that in English, since la muerte is not even in English either
6 months late, but the name change is more of that La Muerte is based on Santa Muerte, or La Catrina, a folk saint who is supposed to be a matriarch of the Dead with catholic and native influence (I think from the Mexica deity Mictecaccihautl)
Wait till she hears there was supposed to be a second movie, but since it didn’t sell as how it was planned to… they stopped it. Instead they made a prequel- a serie: Maya and the three. The previous life of Manolo and Maria.
This movie right here. Fell in love the moment I watched it, Manolo, Joaquin and Maria will be a forever favorite My favorite song? “Heaven knows your name, I’ve been praying to have you come here by my side…” I love you too much But my favorite Spanish version? The same thing 😂😭
20:29 To answer ur questionnnnn.... He will be sSOOOOOOO busy saving other towns he can barely stay in San Angel. But if Maria marries him he will be busy with the celebration 🎉 Ur welcome
I was a huge El Tigre fan back then and this movie directed by the creator of El Tigre did me a favor when I saw it the first time in theaters. Good times.
this movie holds so much nostalgia for me because it was one of the movies i was basically raised by. i was always surprised at how underrated it is even these days
Fun fact! Manolo is voiced by Diego Luna. (I just watched Andor and I needed to watch his entire filmography) And of course, The Orpheus/Eurydice vibes? Beautiful
I never plan on having a wedding but if I were “I love you too much” would be my wedding song. Periodt. P.S Diego Luna aka Manolo has had my heart since Dirty Dancing Havana Night 🤭😗
This movie was just what I needed for younger me. It was my comfort film, my favourite film, that one film I'd go to watch, anybody who had never watched it clearly hasn't had a good life.
I’ve had The Book of Life since I was a child. It came out when I was 4 or 5, so I wouldn’t have any memory of my first reaction to it, but my opinion now hasn’t changed. I loved, and still love this movie. I love all the songs in the movie, especially as a Hispanic person. I have a large Mexican background since I’m a direct child of Mexican immigrants, so this hits a little closer to home culture wise. Love the positive reaction of this movie. It’s been my favorite for a long time!
I’m watching this again and I love the Book of life so so much it’s one of my comfort movies but listening to Diego Lucas voice (Manolo) it’s is so mesmerizing and literally heavenly to me ❤
i didnt think I'd tear up from watching this. I really couldnt stop it. I guess the nostalgia really got to me. I'd watch this on repeat with my friends everytime we went on roadtrips and they really loved it too.
Bro you wanna know my favorite part of this movie? MANOLOS DAD: they will write songs about you! MANOLO: AnD i WiLL SiNg ThEm!!! I love the humor in this movie
Aw, I remember this movie I really loved it when I was younger, and I always thought Maria was so cool. I always hated love triangles in stories, but for some reason Manolo and Joaquín both managed to make me care for them. I’m really surprised with Joaquin because he never came off as an asshole to me like other stories with characters like him. Also I think I may had had a small crush on La muerte. She was just so pretty and nice but also super smart and… * sigh *
Thanks for shining light onto it! The apology song is one of my favs and Iv'e been listening to it a lot lately. I grew up watching this movie and I still love it to this day.
Your energy is great and you should never give up rukia❤ (suggestions 100% wolf,up u would cry lol and onward 💙) kelp going with the the good work but please do two of these (it’s my birthday 🎂) thx! :3
Ah, I'm glad Book of Life is getting more appreciated! I remember I found this movie on accident when I was 12 and it really left quite an impression on me. I love all songs and main characters. Bull song is always making me emotional :') It's one of those movies I really enjoy rewatching from time to time ♡

Oh my good lord on earth your hair is literally so good it’s making me feel self-conscious just looking at it, you need to be given some sort of award for this. Period ✨👁️👄👁️💅✨
OMG THID MOVIE WAS SO GOOD RUKIYAAA! Literally I thought that bell thing with the explosion was gonna kill Manolo like how it happened with de la Cruz in coco. It was actually giving crazy deja vu. Also that song when he was singing, “I’m a creep” is a real song called Creep by Radiohead( one of my favs) Thanks for the reaction!!❤
This movie is so close to my heart, thank you for the amazing review, I had so much fun watching this video and felt like I was watching the movie with a cool friend. Feliz día de muertos 💜
I love the book of life so much more than coco! also if you know the netflix series Maya and the three you'll see our gods in it, that's because Manolo and Maria are reincarnations of Zatz and Maya. It's now confirmed. So I absolutely love this fact ❤
This movie is literally on repeat in my head 24/7 and so are the songs like everything about about is so good. I remember the first time I watched it I was literally crying when Manolo died 🤣 Also this movie came out in 2014 which tbh one of the better movies during that year. 💗💗💗
The Book Of Life was my favorite childhood movie! I'm so glad Rukiya liked it!!! Whenever I got to watch a movie as a kid, I would always choose this one!!
EDIT: Some people are misunderstanding what I said. I know The Book of Life came out first. That's why I called out Pixar for getting inspired by this movie since Disney’s Pixar made Coco.

No. If they went to one bar twice that's still going to one bar.
Xibalba and Muerte's banter is everything! My fave scene in this movie is when Muerte screamed and Xibalba came in with the wine. It's like "Ah yes, my lover is screaming my name enraged...guess it's that time again."

I just wanna mention that the medal doesn't actually give him strength or something; it just makes him invicible/ immortal.
So that strength and power are all him.
I think it's good metaphor. He's confident with the medal and can do amazing things, but when it's gone he's scared and can't do anything. Confidence is key; you can be the most skilled person ever, but without the confidence to put those skills to use, there's practically nothing.
I do like how in the end he gained confidence and was able to fight without the medal.
but it does give him a lot of courage also
I know Manolo singing the "im a creep" song comes off as weird at forst lol, but when you look back on it, it really feels like its about how he never felt accepted by the town or his family for not wanting to bullfight. He doesnt belong bc hes seen as a "weirdo" by society. He feels such a gap between himself and Maria bc of their societal acceptance and status. Makes me wanna cry sometimes.was it just me tho?? Ayone ele have other theories?
i'm surprised she didn't know that song lol
I was like "oH THIs SONG" When it played I did not expect it
I love radiohead. He's the guy who sang creep
28:24 this skeleton is literally my grandpa. He’s got the hair and the voice. Perfect match
This movie holds a dear place to me because the creator also did my fav show as a kid "El tigre: the adventures of Manny Rivera" you can even see the main characters at the start of the story as background characters ♡
It was the first cartoon I saw with mexicans characters potrayed in a good light ♡
He also did Maya and The Three. I believe La Muerte and Xibalba have a small cameo in the series. (Manny too, but in the opening sequence) ♡
@@tannieoclock yesss♡
They're all actually connected. Manolo is a reincarnation of Zatz from Maya and The Three and is related to Manny distantly.
Wait I actually never knew it was made by the same person! No wonder I loved the movie so much lol, El Tigre was such a massive part of my childhood
May i just say how every female character in this movie is just so iconic? Like, most of the main guys look like 🏋♂ (Actually just the main 3) and the girls are all so memorable and have such iconic and distinct designs, i love all of them, they all slay.
FACTS!!
Also a bit ironic
I'm sad that Joaquin was neglected throughout this video, because there was still quite a bit of character to him.
Similar to Manolo, he lived under his father's shadow, who was also a town hero (he was an orphan before the general took him in I believe) so he had a lot to live up to. The general also encouraged that saying "you're just like your father." In his eyes, he was doing exactly what he was raised to, his life's purpose of continuing his fathers legacy. Thats why the mustache bit, because his father had one, thats why he kept talking about his metals, because his father and the general had metals, and that's why he was arrogant, because he was filling the role of hero, the "yes, that is what I do, reward me like I have been before," it became expected because heroes get rewarded for their good deeds.
He still deeply cared for Maria, somewhat seeing that she didn't actually love him when she felt pressured to marry him, and trying to tell her that she didn't have to.
So even towards the end of the movie, he was still in that fantasy realm until Manolo showed him how to be truley heroic. He realized the error of his mindset, and his life basically playing pretend, and willingly throwing away what granted him that life, and trying to redeem himself by actually saving the town. He failed in that regard, but proved that he was done. "No more shadows" as he put it. He was going to create his own legacy.
I think he's pretty underrated because people might assume he's cardboard like many third triangle characters, but he's so fleshed out.
I love how they handled the love triangle trope, especially as I grew to love Joaquin. Also the "light and dark path" coding of their stories with La Muerte and Xibalba, and the generosity vs greed between Manolo and Joaquin. That beginning part really established their dynamics.
My heart when Manolo starts singing to the bull(s)! For so many years, bulls were killed by the Sanchez family for the entertainment of others. They wanted revenge, which they had every right. They didn't ask to be angered on purpose and slain. Then came Manolo with his guitar. He was the only Sanchez to give an incredibly heartfelt apology, understanding their anger. All they ever wanted was a genuine apology, someone in the family to acknowledge the injustice they had suffered. Now at last, they can rest in peace.
The song Manolo sings after the first bullfight when he says "im a creep" is Creep by Radiohead. It comes off very odd and misplaced but we love him for it it's okay 💕 I'm so glad you reacted to his masterpiece it's so fun to see people's reactions to GOOD underrated movies! You should consider watching surfs up or something similar! 💕
I love him way too much.
@@Tea20819 same he was such a true man honestly 🥺💕 he played for Maria from the heart and sung a bull to death talk about romantic
@@Bubbagum87 fr
I loved his cover of the song. I think it being a odd rendition is the point. Especially cause of the lyrics like “im a creep, I’m a weirdo” idk if it’s just me
@@nqvsli no I totally agree.
I think the song could have been good if he didn't do the chorus honestly
Because the lyrics FIT Manolo except for "I'm a creep" however to his father he is a weirdo, he doesnt belong and he IS in love with Maria. But I totally agree.
Rukiya, so you saw the part where Maria's Dad said to Joaquin "you saved my life!" he likes Joaquin more than Manolo because Joaquin saved his life, but general posada is too happy to realize that Manolo saved the town too! (Also, candle maker looks like a cup of beer!)
I LOVE RUKIYA AND HER REACTING TO THIS MOVIE OMG THIS MOVIE IS MY CHILDHOOD
LOVE YOU TOO BABE!!😘💕
MINE TOO 👏🏽😊
Bro same
Same!
@@RukiyaReacts u should try reacting to Kung Fu panda all three movies ,Atlantis underrated movie one ,Souls another underrated movie ,inside out , Anastasia one of the best and also underrated trust me it's amazing ,and Maybe Mulan the animated movie not the one they used real people in but cartoon one
So glad you reacted to this movie. It gets overlooked by Coco so often and Disney totally stole the themes and concept from this much smaller studio, which is a terrible shame. Disney also tried to copyright the phrase "Dia de los Muertos" for merchandise when Coco came out and got publicly lambasted for it. Book of Life also had a strong team of Hispanic writers, directors and producers from the start who wanted to make a fun movie that reflected their culture, while Disney seemed to shuffle together a handful of cultural consultants only after some of the backlash hit the public. And don't get me wrong, Coco is a lovely film, but it still comes off as stereotypically Disney and the behavior during production revealed that the film, regardless of good writing, truly only existed to make more money by exploiting cultures that the executives were not themselves a part of. Book of Life, of course, was crafted to make money too, but there was significantly more focus from the team working on it to tell a Mexican story by people from Hispanic heritage and that shows in the final product.
TLDR;
This movie doesn't get nearly enough love and Disney is a cooperate hydra that will do anything for money.
Couldn’t have said it better
the culture of Hispanics (in this case, Mexico because of the holiday) is not so popular in cartoons, and as soon as it starts to be used in the plot of these cartoons, the cries about plagiarism immediately begin ((((these two beautiful animated masterpieces have a DIFFERENT plot, but the same concept, so what the hell is this а plagiarism? You probably also call all films about Christmas plagiarism of each other?
@@apelsinpark Last I checked, the focus on a main character who loves music and is raised in a family who hates it and sees musicians as lesser, has nothing to do with the holiday. To say nothing of going on a spirit journey to the afterlife and finding family members long past that also had a love of music and gave it up for the sake of the family as a whole. Earning approval from a parental figure through being yourself has nothing to do with Dia de los Muertos either. Sure there are differences, but the core values of the main characters beings so specifically similar rubs me the wrong way.
@@apelsinpark from what i remember reading, The Book of Life was presented to Disney in its early stages and they rejected it...and then started working on Coco, sooooooo idk. take that as you will
@@MonsterRat1000 source: trust me bro
Even though I'm Very late i love how Manolo Is dedicated to Maria shes just so sweet
I used to be obsessed with this movie when I was younger, I’d watch it on repeat over and over, best movie I’ve ever watched, glad to see people are still watching this movie, and I’m glad u enjoyed it!
Same. I really need to watch the movie again.
@@claragemheart581 exactly so much better than coco! ( no offense Disney ) coco May have better animation and what not, but story wise, cmon… BOOK OF LIFEEEEE
also same💕
Same!!!
The romance in this movie it is just so cute. And Joaquim Is my favorite character he is so fun and his character development is great, his friendship with Manolo Is so sweet. I LOOOVE this movie.
PS: I had a major crush on La Muerte
Fax Joaquin is my favourite character to and he's definitely the best character in the movie.
:D
Please tell me I'm not the only one who sheds a thousand tears when Manolo was in the land of the dead and fighting all the bulls that every other Sanchez had killed every time they watch the movie.
"what can maria not do" i can answer that
she cant stop being the most iconic character in the whole movie
I know "the Book of Life" has already drawn TONS of comparisons to "Coco" and vice versa. However, this is something I couldn't ignore once I noticed it.
At 11:54, the voice of Pepe, one of Manolo's mariachi friends, is voiced by Gabriel Iglesias, aka "Fluffy." He's a very famous comedian who also happens to be Mexican-American, and I love his storytelling-style jokes.
Gabriel Iglesias voiced another side character in "Coco," the clerk who tells Miguel and his family why he got stuck in the Land of the Dead and how to return him to the Land of the Living.
This was honestly my fav movie as a kid
Edit: OMG I’M FAMOUS!
I remember watching it but don’t remember the plots 😂
Same
@@berryforever same lol
Can I just say that Maria had me going feral this entire movie SHES SO CANCER CURING, SOUL ECENDING, TOE CURLINGLY BEAUTIFUL😫😭
drooling
I forgot how much I love this movie,it’s been years since I watched it, I recently watched it again and I truly still haven’t changed a thought about it,the book of life is the best hidden gem ❤❤
when I first watched this I sobbed listening to the bull song, I love it so much that I put it in my playlist of “songs that would save me from vecna”
That’s such a great idea for a playlist! Love it haha
*Rukiya being emotional then suddenly* “ WAIT WHY IS THERE A CLOWN? “
Lol
This is my mom’s favorite movie, and I absolutely love the soundtrack in it, I mean at this point I might as well learn the Apology song on ukulele, haha
Maria’s the literal definition of ✨girl boss✨
Fr
This is a little cute thing I found in this movie but at 27:30 to 27:34 when Manolo is seen coming back from the dead there is a heart shaped light around him showing that the love he has for Maria is so strong. It’s soooo cute❤❤😊
Wow! I would have never thought it was released in 2014 I thought it was released in 2022 or something! Its ridiculous how underated this movie is!
I love how Maria challenged the social norms that were placed in her town and how she defined her independence as well as being a boss b while doing it PERIOD😍
She’s got a point, She’s an icon, she’s a legend, and she is the moment! 13:11
Now come on now
This is actually such an underrated movie and I love how you reacted to it. Props to you ❤❤
I LOVE THE BOOK OF LIFE!! I had it on DVD when I was little, and it raised me! My Spanish teacher was also named Maria Sanchez, and my 4th grade Spanish class watched this movie and we all had churros! :)
Oh thats amazing!!
My Spanish teacher made us watch this movie
Jesus christ what a coincidence
@@agentmagma-cube4628 I know lmao, it scared me for a while lol
lemme guess, your teacher's husband name is "Manolo Sanchez" 😂
I'm so happy someone has recognized how beautiful this movie is! I remember seeing this movie with my dad and little sister when it first came out and I just fell in love with it! From the animation style, characters, plot, love sub-plot, and the Mexican folklore aspect of it all, it was just a huge blast for me!
13:19 your edits in this video are iconic!😭
I’m actually surprised that the book of life is so underrated. It’s a good film and a good story
I’m so excited to watch! this movie was a very big part of my childhood and culture growing up. I’m so glad it’s getting recognition, I love your videos! ❤❤
When i was little this ratatouille and song of the sea and ghibli was a super golden part in my childhood. Still in my heart!
I loved this movie as a kid! Maria was my most favourite character, and her lines are iconic!
I loved Maria because i relate to her a lot Haha XD
I love Coco, it's a great movie, and honestly the quality of the animation and music, and story is awesome, but I love this more.
I CANT😂 11:31 “Your not that man though” 😂😂
1) First of all it’s cat- how can I ignore cat? ITS. A. CAT! :D 💕
2) This color and styling looks so good on her!
3) This is honestly the best Guillermo del Toro movie and it deserves respect.
4) The humor is absolutely spot on. Everything that they made for comedy actually works and is funny.
5) THE SOUNDTRACK! The soundtrack is amazing and is on par with the Tarzan and Lion King soundtracks! Every song absolutely hits. I’m still upset we never got the full mariachi version of “If you think I’m sexy”, and the “I love you too much” scene was pure perfection.
6) Idk if it’s true but in my head canon, I like how Manolo doesn’t have a mustache/any facial hair. All the other “manly masculine family manly mans” all have mustaches. Meanwhile Manolo wants to be himself even if it isn’t what a stereotypical man should be. He cares more about following his heart vs suppressing it to please a public image. It really makes him stand out and show he’s different from everyone else.
7) The voice cast did an absolutely amazing job. Ron Pearlman as Xibalba and Ice Cube as the Candle Maker was so unexpected but they worked so well for their characters! They’re one of my favorites from this movie :)
8) I absolutely love that Joaquin isn’t a villain but instead just has more of a friendly rivalry/competition with Manolo that Xibalba makes more serious- he thickens the issues between the two when before Manolo and Joaquin just argued like brothers, and when they reunite again they’re excited like brothers missing eachother because they truly are brothers. When Manolo died, he was trying really hard not to cry when he had to break the news to Maria. You can hear his voice crack and he had to look down, close his eyes, and shake his head to stop his watery eyes. He actually wants Maria to mourn, but her father pushes the issues of her hurrying up and marrying Joaquin; Joaquin even told the General, who is Maria’s father: “General please now is not the tim-“ and the general cuts him off motions for Joaquin to stop talking which Joaquin respects because it’s an elder and the father of the girl he’s trying to marry. He even tried telling Maria she didn’t have to accept the proposal after Manolo’s death but she also cuts him off before he can finish talking. He knew it wasn’t right to take advantage of the situation and he doesn’t want Maria marrying him if she doesn’t want to. You see him hestitate when he wanted to mourn over Manolo and at the alter when Maria says “for San Angel, I do”. Even before we physically saw grown Maria, Joaquin compliments Manolo in his first bull fight before he goes to the arena that he’s happy that Manolo finally took bull fighting seriously because Joaquin knew Manolo was struggling with his identity and how it differs from the family legacy vs Joaquin who looked up to his father and his sacrifice, follow his father’s foot steps, and be exactly like him- as great as a hero as his dad if not better.
Joaquin and Manolo were talking and even teasing eachother before the race to win Maria as adults:
Joaquin: “We got some pretty big shadows to fill”
Manolo: “Ha…huuuuge.”
Joaquin: “Hey, brother, may the best man win Maria”
You can hear it in his voice he doesn’t want to be competing with Manolo cause he cares about him, and impressing Maria is bittersweet since it hurts Manolo. Everything between Manolo and Joaquin was so heartfelt- they never had any ill will towards eachother even if they were both trying to win the same girl over. They easily could have made Joaquin vengeful and petty, but instead he respects both Maria and Manolo’s decision since he wants them to be happy, and he still loves them both. The trio stayed together regardless of what happened and they all still love, respect, support and care for eachother 🖤❤️💙
I will never comprehend how this movie is so criminally underrated.
Wow that must have taken a long time to type
No kidding 😂
I love this movie, and I've always watched it in Spanish, so it surprised me that here they call her "la muerte" and in the Spanish dub is "la Catrina"
real! I watched this in spanish but my brother always watched it in english because he doesn’t know english and i was like “😮”
La Catrina is her actual name in Mexican/South American folklore lol
@@georgiedenburrito87 Catrina* yeah I know, what surprised me is that they didn't call her that in English, since la muerte is not even in English either
6 months late, but the name change is more of that La Muerte is based on Santa Muerte, or La Catrina, a folk saint who is supposed to be a matriarch of the Dead with catholic and native influence (I think from the Mexica deity Mictecaccihautl)
“It’s like coco but better” I COULDNT AGRRE MORE, ITS SO UNDERATED!!!!
Wait till she hears there was supposed to be a second movie, but since it didn’t sell as how it was planned to… they stopped it. Instead they made a prequel- a serie: Maya and the three. The previous life of Manolo and Maria.
This movie right here. Fell in love the moment I watched it, Manolo, Joaquin and Maria will be a forever favorite
My favorite song?
“Heaven knows your name, I’ve been praying to have you come here by my side…” I love you too much
But my favorite Spanish version?
The same thing 😂😭
20:29 To answer ur questionnnnn....
He will be sSOOOOOOO busy saving other towns he can barely stay in San Angel. But if Maria marries him he will be busy with the celebration 🎉
Ur welcome
I love this movie one of my favorites growing up and it sounds even more romantic in Spanish and manolo is literally the standard
Manolo went beyond the standard where can i find a man like this? 😭
I was a huge El Tigre fan back then and this movie directed by the creator of El Tigre did me a favor when I saw it the first time in theaters. Good times.
bro respect for Joaquin he didn't kiss marias lips but her forehead 👍🫡
this movie holds so much nostalgia for me because it was one of the movies i was basically raised by. i was always surprised at how underrated it is even these days
Fun fact! Manolo is voiced by Diego Luna. (I just watched Andor and I needed to watch his entire filmography)
And of course, The Orpheus/Eurydice vibes? Beautiful
The only thing Maria can’t do is be ugly because honey she’s a GODDESS
I never plan on having a wedding but if I were
“I love you too much” would be my wedding song. Periodt.
P.S Diego Luna aka Manolo has had my heart since Dirty Dancing Havana Night 🤭😗
Finally, I've been waiting. Love this movie to death. I think it's one of those underrated gems, also, Rukiya... that hair...?? You look amazing 😭❤️
Ikr she slays so much
Fun fact, I’m from Mexico and I respect my culture❤❤❤
I actually met the animators of that one in person when it first came out. They've released a new Netflix series and gave me their concept art books.
I actually teared up in Theaters next to my mom when he found & saw his mom, loved this movie.
Yeah, it is so sweet ❤
This movie was just what I needed for younger me. It was my comfort film, my favourite film, that one film I'd go to watch, anybody who had never watched it clearly hasn't had a good life.
I’ve had The Book of Life since I was a child. It came out when I was 4 or 5, so I wouldn’t have any memory of my first reaction to it, but my opinion now hasn’t changed. I loved, and still love this movie. I love all the songs in the movie, especially as a Hispanic person. I have a large Mexican background since I’m a direct child of Mexican immigrants, so this hits a little closer to home culture wise. Love the positive reaction of this movie. It’s been my favorite for a long time!
I’m watching this again and I love the Book of life so so much it’s one of my comfort movies but listening to Diego Lucas voice (Manolo) it’s is so mesmerizing and literally heavenly to me ❤
I LOVE HOW THEY PUT MY FAVORITE SONG CREEP BY RADIOHEAD IN A PERFECT MOVIE LIKE THIS ONE
i didnt think I'd tear up from watching this. I really couldnt stop it. I guess the nostalgia really got to me. I'd watch this on repeat with my friends everytime we went on roadtrips and they really loved it too.
I loveddd this movie when it came out and nobody ever watches it i honestly feel like this movie needs more recognition !!!
Bro you wanna know my favorite part of this movie? MANOLOS DAD: they will write songs about you! MANOLO: AnD i WiLL SiNg ThEm!!! I love the humor in this movie
Aw, I remember this movie
I really loved it when I was younger, and I always thought Maria was so cool. I always hated love triangles in stories, but for some reason Manolo and Joaquín both managed to make me care for them. I’m really surprised with Joaquin because he never came off as an asshole to me like other stories with characters like him.
Also I think I may had had a small crush on La muerte. She was just so pretty and nice but also super smart and… * sigh *
Thanks for shining light onto it! The apology song is one of my favs and Iv'e been listening to it a lot lately. I grew up watching this movie and I still love it to this day.
Your energy is great and you should never give up rukia❤ (suggestions
100% wolf,up u would cry lol and onward 💙) kelp going with the the good work but please do two of these (it’s my birthday 🎂) thx! :3
Love this movie so underrated! You bring me so much joy, thank you so much for posting and I didn’t even notice the cuts! Make your money girl!
Yeah it’s undrrrated
As for someone who grew up with this movie, I greatly appreciate that it's finally getting some love after years of it being dead.
I LOVE IT HOW IN 11:01 RUKIYA IS LIKE "awww" BUT AFTER 1 SCENE CHANGE SHES LIKE "HUH?!"
Ah, I'm glad Book of Life is getting more appreciated! I remember I found this movie on accident when I was 12 and it really left quite an impression on me. I love all songs and main characters. Bull song is always making me emotional :') It's one of those movies I really enjoy rewatching from time to time ♡
One of my favourites! So happy you watched it Rukiya ❤
Thank you! I’m so happy you guys recommended it to me🥰💕
@@RukiyaReacts You should react to the movie SONIC. It's really funny. 😊
30:21 He was trying to make the kiss but girl eventually learned how to be top, Like..... How many things did you even study after being sent to boarding school-😭✋
I have watched this movie prob 50x more than I remember, and I memorized every word they said, every scene, I just friggin love this movie!
Oh my good lord on earth your hair is literally so good it’s making me feel self-conscious just looking at it, you need to be given some sort of award for this. Period ✨👁️👄👁️💅✨
La Muerte's Candles literally spread fire when she screamed😭
OMG THID MOVIE WAS SO GOOD RUKIYAAA! Literally I thought that bell thing with the explosion was gonna kill Manolo like how it happened with de la Cruz in coco. It was actually giving crazy deja vu.
Also that song when he was singing, “I’m a creep” is a real song called Creep by Radiohead( one of my favs)
Thanks for the reaction!!❤
I love this movie so much! I remember when it came out and I was shocked how unpopular it was. It's so funny, sweet, and interesting.
This movie is so close to my heart, thank you for the amazing review, I had so much fun watching this video and felt like I was watching the movie with a cool friend. Feliz día de muertos 💜
I love the book of life so much more than coco! also if you know the netflix series Maya and the three you'll see our gods in it, that's because Manolo and Maria are reincarnations of Zatz and Maya. It's now confirmed. So I absolutely love this fact ❤
This movie is literally on repeat in my head 24/7 and so are the songs like everything about about is so good. I remember the first time I watched it I was literally crying when Manolo died 🤣 Also this movie came out in 2014 which tbh one of the better movies during that year. 💗💗💗
The Book Of Life was my favorite childhood movie! I'm so glad Rukiya liked it!!! Whenever I got to watch a movie as a kid, I would always choose this one!!
Omg this movie is literally my childhood! I remember just staying at home and watching it whilst eating malteasers. Good times ✋😭
