It clocks in at under 90 minutes, but at times I felt it was taking me 80 days to get to the end of this latest adaptation of Jules Verne’s many times adapted story of a race around the globe.

Rated: 1/4

It's hard to hate on this gentle, goofy interpretation, populated by simply designed animal characters with exaggerated features.

Rated: 3/5

A globetrotting adventure, this adaptation flits from location to location with scenes that play like individual skits. Some are entertaining but overall there's little here to recommend kids watch this over many other movies.

Rated: 2/5

Shadows on the Wall

The quality of the imagery is above average, sending tiny characters on an epic journey that's enjoyably bonkers.

I wasn't expecting much, but it was so much worse than I thought it would be. There is a lot in the movie that is unexplained, ignored, just plain skipped over, and doesn't make sense. The plot is barely congruent, and all of the "big reveals" are pretty obvious.

OK animation but stupid plot. Why change the original if it works. Producer's and director's conceit to think they can do better but they can't.

Boring plot and lazy "plot twists". But the animation is cute. Overall mediocre. Not as bad as spy cat.
