Superb Visuals, Plot Faltered
Fabulous movie
We think this movie is fabulous. Both my kids love it and have watched it several times. They are 7, boy and girl. They enjoy the music and artistry. some of the topics are fairly serious but I find most kids see movies for what they are, Fun entertainment. They aren't looking for deeper meaning or emotional attachments. If they want to discuss the movie content, we do , but they mostly just enjoy the show. I suppose this movie isn't for all kids. My kids also enjoy Book of Life, which is also on the odd side. As for the "jack the ripper" part ,my kids have no idea who that is. It was just a scary looking character. They didn't pay that much attention to it.
