23 July 2007. Unfortunately this amazingly animated visual delight was spoiled in part by the excessive effort at trying too hard. The plot was very good, the emotional content was excellent along with the message of the story, the use of time travel was solid, but the execution in a number of spots, especially with the supposed villain was overdone and sometimes vapid and inconsistent with the overall tone of the movie. The use of animation for this particular project was apt and was spot on, the mix of realism and animation well balanced. If only the over-dramatization would have been reigned in this movie could have been another "The Incredibles" that made a clear mark as a classic. Unfortunately, this good movie just didn't have the consistency throughout to make the grade. Seven out of Ten Stars.
