I couldn't watch this movie for a long time, but when I finally got the chance to watch it and watched it, I realized to my surprise that this movie is not good. The only scene I remember in this movie is the fight at the end, it was very interesting, but most of the movie was boring and tasteless, so I definitely do not recommend watching it.

Even by the standards of allowance-snatching half-term filler, this is pretty indifferent ...

Carping on a film clearly targeted to 5-year-olds might seem unjust, but the filmmakers go about their business in such a lazy fashion that the viewer can't help but feel irritated by the whole ordeal.

Won't give Pixar a run for their money and might be best saved for a rainy day rental.

In the end when I walked out I felt like I just watched a failed Broadway musical that got turned into a failed animated movie that no one else should have to suffer through.
