Despite these aspects, the story gets a bit muddy in the middle and the narrative tone doesn’t flow properly. Go to Full Review

Riverdance: The Animated Adventure isn’t a bad movie, it just isn’t particularly memorable either. Go to Full Review

If you accept the fact that this gorgeously animated film is incurably weird, then you can appreciate the fact that it's also surprisingly wonderful. Go to Full Review

Riverdance: The Animated Adventure offers a new musical chapter to fans of the original production, as well as a bit of folklore and a rousing tale for kids with a sense of humor and the usual complement of wise talking animals. Go to Full Review

The producers fail to take a step back and really think about the cuckoo bananas world they're halfheartedly creating here to sell Irish dancing to kids. Go to Full Review

4/5
There is humour, a little moralising, and Riverdancing giant elks, so what's not to like? Super sweet, it's little-kid and parent friendly -- and tweens should sneakily enjoy it too. Go to Full Review

The characters are fun and the story is sweet and flows really nicely. The animation and musical numbers are fantastic and super fun. There are the added sequence's with the cute sheep and frogs that will keep very young kids entertained too. So there is something for everyone. I love this magical and special movie.
