About
You’ll likely enjoy this charming early animated adventure with light romance and comic tension; Not for you if you want a faithful Jonathan Swift adaptation or faster, more developed storytelling like Peter Pan.
Pros: charming adventure; catchy songs; inventive comedy | Cons: loose adaptation; padded pacing; some annoying characters
