Beautiful animation and entertaining work from a talented voice cast help Migration take flight in spite of a story that doesn't quite stand out from the flock.

3/5

Fortunately, a screenplay by White Lotus creator Mike White elevates proceedings with an enjoyably sardonic bite.

... Perhaps the screenplay packs less sneaky wit than you’d hope from Mike (The White Lotus) White. But given that this family-friendly confection looks, sounds and tastes a treat, you’d have to be fussy to quibble.

3/5

With some very strong elements, namely the voice actors, sound design, and animation style, Migration is a fun film that kids will arguably enjoy more than grown-ups.

Packed with adventure, comedy, and life learning lessons Migration is entertaining from start to finish. It essentially boils down into a road trip film with a bit of Disney’s 2007 Ratatouille sprinkled in.

It may not be a very innovative proposal, but it manages to entertain and leave some optimistic messages about overcoming one's own fears, the importance of building a family bond, and the courage to venture into new directions. [Full Review in Spanish]

Probably one of the best children films of that year. Honestly speaking I may have went to watch this film at least 3 times with my kids and I enjoyed it each time as if it were the first. You kind of learn to love and admire films like that and this is definitely one of them. Trust me.
