That movie has been out for quite some time.

I didn't really like the story of the movie or the look of the 
characters. I found it all rather odd. The talk about using Blender to 
make a movie gave me the impression it was going to have a running time 
longer than 10 or so minutes. That running time makes it a short rather 
than a movie.

It was still rather impressive when you realize it was all done using 
Blender. The Blender community also benefits from additional 
developments and enhancements made to the program that were deemed 
necessary to assist in (or simplify) the production of the "movie".
