I must admit I’m a bit of a snob when it comes to animated movies and tend to only really like Disney/Pixar, I really think the vast majority of other animation studios add way too much silly slapstick comedy, and use big star names to get bums on seats for stories that lack imagination, plot, and heart.
Shrek is a bit of an outlier here, but the endless sequels made me lose all hope of anything good coming out of Dreamworks again.
So I was totally gobsmacked when I realised that this film is utterly brilliant. It was genuinely one of the best movies I’ve seen in a long time!
I highly recommend it. It’s action-packed, laugh-a-minute, has an amazing and unique animation style during the fight scenes, and is full of heart - I cried!
