Genre: Animation | Adventure | Family | Fantasy
You have probably already seen the trailer(s), so there is nothing much I can add to say anything phenomenal about the film. It is as you have seen, simply a foreign cartoon. With all the possibilities that we as movie goers are use to seeing when it comes to animation you will find this lacking the state of the art animation. Throughout the movie I couldn’t help from casting judgement on how much better the film could have been using live action combined with animation.
Overall the story is pretty good, the plot is actually very good. But when it all boils down to how I saw the film it ends up lacking in the luster that I would have expected with the technology we have today. I would like to see this re-done as mentioned above, I believe it would have a greater draw especially if they release it in 3D.
My Rating: 2 Mugs of Guinness - aka; 2 Stars for those being too young to enjoy the Irish Ale.
