iZ and the Zizzles

About This Movie

iZ and the Zizzles is a quirky animated feature that dives into the struggles of the Franklins, a family caught between the hustle of city life and the slow-paced charm of rural America. The father’s dream of reviving his failing radio station, WZIZ-FM, provides a lot of the film's heart and humor. The animation style has a low-fi vibe that feels nostalgic, almost reminiscent of early 2000s indie projects. There's a certain warmth in the storytelling, though the pacing sometimes drags. The voice performances, though not from big names, add a unique flavor. And the way they integrate music into the narrative? Well, it feels genuine, capturing that hopeful energy. It’s a little slice of life but with a magical twist, which makes it stand out.
