  Just awful

  A mishmash of stereotypes, terrible dialogue (the maon character actually SAYS "Eeeek!" and sighs "Yaaay!" more than once), bizarrely poor deliveries by otherwise serviceable, well-known actors, lousy friends for the main character (at one point they cheer the idea of straight up murdering another character for, essentially, being found creepy by them!). The songs are catchy but insipid. Well, I suppose that's why it was at Dollar Tree and I'd never heard of it, despite the popular B listers on the billing.

  Deserved to do better than it did

  This movie deserved to do better than it did. It is colourful, charming and touching. A must- watch for kids and kids at heart. It is great for keeping kids entertained without making parents want to join the circus. I may not recommend it to a two-year old, but it would be good for a six. With all the awful Saturday Disney around I can't see why this movie did so poorly

  Great toddler film

  My three and four (now five) year olds LOVE this movie. It's terrific for little ones, and I prefer this to many more popular and money making films that cast a wider net that targets a broader age spectrum but also exposes little ones to more fearful subjects and tidal waves of verbage that they don't understand...and vocabulary/behaviors that I don't want them to imitate. I was surprised to read that this is the all-time lowest grossing animated feature film, but there you go. We watch it on Netflix.
