Feast is a romantic comedy animation told from the perspective of a boston terrier named Winston through the dominant use of low shots to focus on him. The story is uniquely told through the different types of food given to Winston by his master. It is an animation that pet owners can relate with and laugh about, but on top of all it tells me that being pretentious is the last thing you would want to do while you are in a relationship. I think of it that way because the scene where Winston's master is going on a date, and gave him vegetables which is not the usual food that both of them eats Winston rejects it. This animation is also wonderful because of the realistic portrayal of pet dogs. Unlike Bolt (from Disney's Bolt) who has personality, Winston behaves like a real pet dog who only cares about food most of the time and shows compassion which mends his master's broken heart.
Feast is created in the form of 3D animation, but is rendered so that they are seemingly 2D. I like Disney's initiative to go back to 2D animation in the past few years because I find 3D animated films too contrived hence I feel disconnected from the feelings that the film is trying to convey.
