About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you’re into offbeat, mostly wordless animated adventures with quirky comedy and a slightly dark edge, especially if you liked The Illusionist; Not for you if you need fast pacing and lots of dialogue.

Pros: inventive humor; catchy jazzy energy; expressive animation | Cons: very little dialogue; slow, uneven pacing; unsettling character designs
