Amazing CGI in a lack lustre movie.

Rating: 3/10 (29 July 2019)

Took my young Niece & Nephew to see this.
I'll begin with giving praise to the digital artists. Amazing and beleivable work. Very impressed.
The movie on the other hand was lacking & voice acting almost felt it was being read directly from the script.
The movie plot was a carbon copy of the original cartoon animated movie but just felt like all effort went into the CGI & little to none went into making good beleivable dialogue. Even the soundtrack sounded half hearted compared to the original.
Beyonce was a terrible casting choice, she just had too much vocal attitude which just felt off. Seth Rohan was great but it wasn't enough.
My neice & nephew (6 & 4 yo) got bored & restless as were other children in the theatre.
This movie didn't need to be done, as were any of the other recent live action remakes Disney has been churning out in an obvious cash grab riding on the success of the originals & another reminder that Hollywood writers have no talent for original ideas.
If you must watch, don't bother going to the cinema to see & wait for streaming release.
