This is both a clever and amusing film. I have always been so intrigued by stop-motion, but seeing this film has taken my interest, as well as my expectations, to a new level. The stop-motion detail is unbelievable, and I cant even imagine how long this film took to make. Co Hoedeman has some serious patience and expert technical skills. Although it is clearly a children’s film, it can definitely be appreciated and be enjoyed by adults.
“Tchou Tchou” has such a clever story. I love the child’s take on the Adam and Even in the garden. The blocks are perfect to represent creation, especially with all the detail on each one. It is just so playful and fun, that I know any child would enjoy this. The boy and the girl are so innovative when dealing with the serpent. It’s fun to see what they are going to do each time the serpent comes around. Although I guess that the we aren't merely watching and waiting, but the film is arranged to have us help figure out how to deal with the serpent ourselves. Then after all the plans fail, all of a sudden the serpent becomes something else. We see the joy of the boy and the girl and experience joy ourselves as they ride away on the train.
