The Toe Tactic is a film with so much novelty and creativity that it's hard to describe, so I'm not surprised at a few of the reviewers on IMDb who don't quite get it. It's about people who are basically lonely, but doing the best they can, and trying to make it through their days. The animated characters are bursting with life, and their intrusions into the live action cause havoc amongst the live action actors, but they force them to move! When Jane Lynch appears as the nightclub host, the audience realizes 'oh, this is funny', if they haven't figured it out yet. The voice overs by the legendary Eli Wallach and equally legendary Marian Seldes, along with comic David Cross and Andrea Martin, are vivid and just plain funny. Lily Rabe, as Mona Peek, definitely captures the essence of loss, which intrigues Daniel London as the singing elevator man. Mona has a great movie mom in Mary Kay Place (Amelia). I'm tempted to explain more, but don't want to be a spoiler.
