To give you an idea of what this movie is like: Imagine an animated movie that combines everything you liked about The Goonies, The Adventurers, and E. T. and have it directed by Spielberg and Tim Burton and I imagine it would be something like this. Great character development and a wonderful story with a fun adventure kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next.
I thought this was absolutely incredible and am going to watch it again. I can't believe this movie is over ten years old and have never even heard of it - and how superficial some of the reviews here are.
I'm reading reviews here that say things like "It's a kids movie" like it's a bad thing. This is a "kid's movie" in the same vein that The Wizard of Oz or Spirited Away are kid's movies.
I definitely recommend you give this one a shot. It's a visual feast and a heartfelt adventure story that blew me away.
Note: I watched the English dubbed version and was very impressed with the voice acting. I loved thought the musical score was wonderful, too.
Edit: Just want to add that at the time of this writing 6/19/2021 it is free to watch on Amazon Prime - also where I watched it. You may be able to find it on YouTube as well.
