2/5
Sigh. Not to moan about how things were better in the good old days, things have clearly moved backwards in kid-aimed animation, so now we routinely get this sort of ersatz DreamWorks storyworld where everything looks like a screensaver. Go to Full Review Awais Irfan FILMHOUNDS Magazine 16h
3/5
It’s a fitting subtitle, and indicative of the level on which this movie ultimately operates: sometimes, not always. A competent animated film that is enjoyable in bursts, but never rises above the promise of its more interesting parts. Go to Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film 5d
