About

You’ll likely enjoy this quirky, darker animated comedy-adventure if you like offbeat underdog stories and big-name voice casts; Not for you if you want something light like Over the Hedge or a brighter, kid-friendlier bug tale like A Bug's Life.

Pros: funny underdog story; star-studded voices; adventurous action | Cons: uneven tone for kids; some find it boring; can feel creepy
