ABOUT

 Home is an American animated film which was first seen in cinema on March 27,2015. The animated film has an comedy, science fiction and an adventure genre, it has 1 hour and 30 minutes movie time length. Honestly, I've watched this for almost 15 hours equivalent to 10 times. It was so cute that I can't stop myself from seeing more! Well, no doubt I like this, one of the reason because It's a product of DreamWorks Animation, where in its sister's movies are The Shrek, Megamind, How to train your dragon, Kungfu panda, Madagascar and many more. It was directed by Tim Johnson, and written by Tom J. Astle and Matt Ember for the screenplay and Adam Rex for the book.

In 2011, DreamWorks Animation thought of having the original book to have its own preview as a Animated film. Adam Rex announced to his blog that DreamWorks would make an adaptation on his children book entitled The True Meaning of Smekday and later after a year it was started in the making.

 Story of HOME

In a far away planet called Smeckland, living a oh-so cuteness species with a short body and 6 tentacles. an intergalactic species called Boov. Boov are being chase by the Gorg,planet destroyer species. Boov seek and look for a home in other places and to other and so on. Until they've found Earth for their next home, thus they didn't acknowledge that they also stealed something significant to humans, The affection, fondness, and warmth of a Family which they consider home. 

Home is about finding for a home in a world full of danger.

After the Friendly invasion of the Boov to the planet Earth Led by Captain SmerkGratuity "Tip" Tucci, a simple, caring, loving girl was parted apart from her mother, Lucy Tucci, this was the time that Tip was supposed to give a birthday gift to her mother and this caused her pain, sadness and madness. Left by her hatred to Boovs she hide with her cat and later on had the urge to find her mother that was brought in Happy Humans' Town by the Boov.

On the other hand, Oh, a clumsy, gauche and a lonely Boov was a happy-loving species to other Boov mate, He gain no friend for his very awkward social communication, and different perspective. All he want to do is to mingle and have some fun. He planned a party right away they've landed earth but sadly speaking, No single Boovs had came and the worse, they intentionally avoided him. He saw and spoke with his 'Friend' Kyle. Oh was excited and lively, He didn't notice that he accidentally send the Invitation for his party that leads the map on his house in Earth to Everyone in the entire galaxy. As expected for a clumsy Boov, later on he became a fugitive Boov.

On the run, Oh and Tip merges way, fate brought them together. At first Tip had a bad time understanding Oh and his indifference but eventually they became good buddies. They agreed on finding Tip's mother. Without knowing that the only way to stop the Gorg from coming is for Oh to surrender his password, Yep that's right, Oh's mobile password. (So they can cancel the sending message)

At last, after a hundred of finding, burst of emotion and an emotional day, The heroes got what they are fighting for. Tip to her Mother, Boov to Gorg and of course Tip and Oh Friendship.

 The story of Home was the best animated film I've ever watched, It has this mixed emotions of Happiness, Sadness, Excitement, Warmness and of course the cuteness. I think the adorable characters made me watched this all over again, also The Script is humorous and amusing, they have this different chemistry of humor like the unintentional wrong grammar of Oh, I really love the way when he was arguing with Tip about the Mom thing, That was funny and creative.

Oh: Now we can go find Mymom.

Gratuity 'Tip' Tucci: That's my mom.

Oh: That is the thing that I said.

-Tip and Oh's Conversation in the Movie (Home)

The Story broke my heart too, whenever I see the Lonely Oh with a sad facial expression, I was like, I'm going to watch the entire film again because I can't take to think that He was that sad. it breaks my heart for real. I also loved the way they made everything Interest to see, those Boovs has their different attitude and personality

Oh: When the other Boov's said, "Oh!" I knew they were not happy to see me. The truth is that among the Boov, I do not fit in - I fit out.

COLORFUL MOODS

One of the thing I love about the Boovs are their colorful change of moods. Yes! When I say colorful, I mean it. They change color depending on what they feel and say, and that is either voluntarily or involuntarily. In the Movie, Oh was sad when nobody came to his prepared party, that made him turn into color Blue, when he lie to Tip he turned Green (Like Pinocchio when he was lying, everybody will know) and then when they are scared of something, Yellow. Purple when they are strike or vibrated. Pink when they feel loved, Red when anger, Orange when they feel excitement and happiness and lastly, Periwinkle when they feel extreme shock. Eventually, You'll notice everything and you'll enjoy it. Promise!

The things that they've use different kind of country/places in the world, that made the film more interesting, such as the Headquarters in Eiffel Tower in Paris, Statue of Liberty change into Captain Smerk face, The Famous Tower of London and many more.

Boovs' are alarmed by the risk of fugitive boov and Gorg.

The Eiffel Tower was set upside down when they tried to take Oh.

I appreciate that the Animated Film, enhance the importance of a family. Like how Tip loves her mother so much, Oh was admire by his Boovs family, and the Gorg to his last generation family. It teaches us that, Family will always be family. No matter what happen, You'll do everything it takes to protect them.

Oh: The Gorg are not the Taker. The Boov are.

HEARTWARMING SOUNDTRACK

One of my favorite thing in the movie, is their very well done soundtrack. Well with the feature songs of Rihanna, Clarence Coffee Jr., Kiesza, Charli XCX, Jacob Plant, and Jennifer Lopez  comes from an album which also entitled HOME. Dancing in the Dark has captivate my interest, especially when they use it as the song where in Oh was unintentionally forced to dance to a human song, even I, nonchalantly was waving in the beat. Try to hear it out, You might find yourself dancing. Love dancing and the beat? Well, Slushious will give you the groove, it was played when Oh repaired the Car of Tip, and he called it Slushious. I love this! It gave an impact to make Oh look cool and smart! Going back, Feel the light has also enchant me, the beautiful and pure of soul singing of Jennifer Lopez, the scene where Tip finally found her mother, I was about to cry that time honestly.
