A great movie in almost every aspect!

Rating: 9/10 (13 March 2015)

An amazing animation. I've never seen a stop-motion movie before that sucks you into the visual aspect so much. The dialogues are playful yet have a deeper meaning: the children see the playfulness, the adults see the deeper meaning. The story is relatable to children and their parents. The big moral is that you should let your children create their own world through toys and how parents should give them the freedom and material to do so. The story during the animated part is meant to entertain and is about the fight between good and bad.
The only negative thing I can mention is that at a certain point the movie changes location to the real world which kicks you out of the animated world that kept you so close to the story... The whole movie was about the fight between good and bad, freedom and brainwashing and in a sudden it's about a father that doesn't gives his child the freedom to create an own dreamworld. This kinda breaks the flow you felt during the movie. But it's not that bad that it ruins the movie and when it goes back to animation you quickly pick the story back up again.
