This Animation Is Way Too Serious To Be #68 In The Top 250 List

Rating: 5/10 (7 December 2009)

This movie goes from silly to serious in a heartbeat. The old man meets his future wife when he was a young introverted child. The movie starts off innocent. Then they get married and have many unexpected problems in their marriage that keeps them from going to Paradise Falls. Then his wife either had a miscarriage or stillbirth when she planned on having a baby. Later, she dies before they accomplished their goal. Then they wanted to put the old man in an old folk's home. He flies his house away in balloons. But a boy stows away on his house. The boy has his own share of problems. His father continues to lie to him and not be a part of his life. Too many serious realistic plots to be a funny animation! If that crazy explorer was already an adult when the old man was a little boy, then he was the most active senior citizen cartoon character over 90 that I have ever seen!
