Teenage goblins navigate the uncertain waters of life after high school. Isaac Roberts directs “Goblin High,” a whimsical coming-of-age piece observing the qualms of its bright green goblin characters. The film opens with a father goblin doodling in his journal at work as we hear his existential, internal monologue. His angsty adolescent son hides from the world with music — he sings a song for his friend in a moment of vulnerability while awaiting an aerial spectacle. Meanwhile, another graduate-to-be navigates parting with her best friend as they bury a time capsule of their friendship. With a runtime of less than six minutes, the film’s embrace of everyday life mixed with stylistic character design deliver a wonderfully imaginative display of word-building. -JM.
