Brilliant

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2011)

I wasn't sure what to expect and went in to see the film expecting it to be a nice pleasant animation. How wrong I was. This is a brilliantly crafted script, where the animation is just incredible. I hate the over use of superlatives. But the detail, the entertainment value are amazing.
It takes a bold stance attempting to entertain adults not by being cute, gimmicky, thematically challenging or infused with pop culture shout outs. It does so by being imaginative, heartfelt, and beautiful in fiery flourishes.
When it comes to the use of 3D it is everything that Avatar was except this doesn't bore you to death with a flimsy story and pure emphasis on the WOW isn't 3D amazing. You do not need to see this film in 3D to be blown away - it's a great story, well crafted and very well made. A don't miss as far as I'm concerned.
