I saw this film in preview yesterday and would like to warn people who have seen the trailer and think they would like to see an impressive monster film with the children.
WARNING: This is not a Christmas monster movie, neither is it a children's movie and it is certainly not a feel good movie.
The acting is first rate, the production values are excellent with a beautiful blend of cgi and painted animation, and the film is a good film. But the trailer suggests it might be a good old fashioned monster film and parents looking for a Christmas treat would be advised to steer clear. The theme is terminal illness, death and acceptance portrayed through the eyes of a young boy coming to terms with life's harsh reality.
This is not a fun film.
