Not only for kids folks! This is a movie for everyone.

Me and my wife loved this movie. A deeply moving story with gorgeous animation and a hauntingly beautiful soundtrack. Better than a lot of 'adult' movies these days.

That was a great movie that me and my 9yrs old daughter watched with delight. The “2D-3D” animation is fantastic.

Agreed! My wife and I were completely mesmerized by this movie. One of the most gorgeous pieces of art I've ever seen. Pause any frame, and it could be framed. The story? Deep, complex, heartwarming... I highly recommend it to anyone. Good for the team who made this film!
