My family and I see just about every new movie (that is appropriate) and we have been either disappoint or basically amused most of the year until now. Exceptional story and art work. The main issue we had with the movie was it was a little slow to start. There was a need for the back story (thus the slow start) but it could have been a little better. I believe a few of the scenes may be intense for younger viewers but they are kept to a minimum.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, exceptional art
