Act 1: 9.5/10. WOW what an amazing start. Up until the dinner party this film is great in so many ways Act 2: 7.9/10. Bruno is fun and the house collapsing is a great setpiece BUT everything else is meh. Oh and "What else can I do?" is good.

Act 3: 7/10? It pretty much doesn't exist. The conflict loses momentum until everyone is just chilling, then everything gets fixed in a kind of emotional scene. The ending was cosy but still just ok.

Overall, this film is an 8/10. I feel like the end of "We don't talk about Bruno" was the climax of the film in quality and plot intrigue. If they swapped the release with another, later film and gave it a bit more time than it could have been one of Disney's best. Still enjoyed it.
