Genius Party / Genius Party Beyond Blu-ray Movie, Overall Score and Recommendation
Genius Party & Genius Party Beyond are exceptional showcases for talent in the animation world. Each selection of short films offers viewers a great assortment of gems that are well worth discovery. While the first Genius Party was highly satisfactory (with only a few shorts that didn't quite hit home completely), Genius Party Beyond is even more absorbing and entertaining to watch unfold. The animation in both compilations is stellar. The Blu-ray is impressive with quality video-audio presentations for each short and animation enthusiasts should strongly consider seeking the release out. There is so much quality animation to discover in this gem of a package. Highly recommended.
