Mark Kermode Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube) It's not just playing to a young audience. Oct 28, 2025 Full Review Cath Clarke Guardian This is a family film with an IQ higher than the average. Rated: 4/5 Oct 21, 2025 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times While the children are permitted a measure of psychology, the older characters, especially Amber and Jack’s mopey, klutzy father (overplayed by Tony Hale), are treated as earnest mouthpieces for the story’s morals. Aug 7, 2025 Full Review Jennie Kermode Eye for Film Tells a dark story in vivid colour, with lots of action and laughs, largely thanks to a great cast and truly dedicated technical team.

I would have loved this movie if it was released in the early 2000’s. Maybe not the best for teens to adults but I would still say it’s worth a watch for how original and well done the movie it.
