Good Film for Kids

I really enjoyed this movie because there were some sentimental bits but it never crossed that line of sappiness. The first scene reminded me of the visual greatness of "Ratatouille." I found it admirable that the film managed to come full circle when it comes to its story. This is a really good movie for kids because the dialogue is easy enough to understand, there's a lot of bright colors and loud noises, not to mention its creativity and energy are constant. The last fifteen minutes got a bit dark, which I really liked, and I wished that it lasted longer. The only flaw I could muster was that twenty minutes into the movie, it got somewhat slow. They could've gotten rid of that slow ten to fifteen minutes and added more scenes when the world turned for the worse. Otherwise, this is a commendable picture that is worth showing to children while one is babysitting.
