🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Animation that doesn't pretend it's only for children. The visual language is rich, the emotional range wider than many live-action films. Watchable at any age.

Stronger in the first half, loses itself slightly near the end. But the emotional hits land where they should. That's why people watch animation.

Works for animation fans of all ages. Very young children may find parts challenging.

Director: Derek Drymon

Best Watched: With children on a day off — or alone with the thought that you haven't completely grown up. Both work.
