One of the few animated family movies that don't disguise death and injustice

I'm fed up with people thinking animation has to be 'dumb enough' to pander to little kids.

Animation is an art and a media, and people who want to limit it to a very young public are both wasting and strangling it to death.

Ternet Ninja puts the right filters at the right places. It's OK to make fun of a superficial girl, it's not to embellish or disguise the murder of a sick and exhausted, exploited child. Some people might prefer dumb movies like 'The Secret Life of Pets' where they can abandon their kid in front of the TV. Movies that will be easily watched and immediately forgotten because they simply have no soul neither message.

'Ternet ninja' is an educational, intelligent movie that should be studied in class, and that parents who want their child to think in front of the TV and form their own opinions, should make good use of. All it shows and that isn't as easily 'digestible' as Tom and Jerry's gratuitous but extreme violence (for example) would provide a good occasion to talk and research. But I'm pretty sure some people think a kid is too 'dumb' to process any hard reality. These people are the reason why kids in rich countries are less and less prepared for anything and explode with panic at the first problem. Why they riot and loot instead of gathering and organizing people so that they get HEARD.

I recommend this movie to any parent who has goals when it comes with good parenting.
