Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Steineded How sad is this?

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

dkwhitehorn I didn't laugh a single time. My 12 yr old laughed maybe twice. We were both very underwhelmed. I ended up preferring chores to watching this at prime time. The only reason I am giving it 2 stars is that nothing is worse than Vertical Limit or Blairwitch 2.

ianb330-112-344579 This movie was pushed mercilessly on Sky TV as essentially the greatest exercise in animation in recent years. Well, guess what - it isn't. Nowhere near. The animation would have been great in the early nineties, the voice acting redefined the phrase 'phoned in', and the musical score was just plain annoying. Avoid.

joannabarker-04823 It's like everybody working on the film hated themselves and wanted the audience to suffer. Emily Watson's voice acting was astoundingly poor.

susanlove-61970 Can't believe how bad this was. The weirdest thing of all is that it's set in America, NY by looks of it, but all the actors are English, talking with their own accents. Baffling!Emily WAtson as the mum is terribly miscast. But the whole thing is a mess - plot, script, tired cliched attempts at child humour.
