About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a family-friendly fantasy with goofy humor, cute monsters, and kung fu antics, somewhat in the spirit of Trolls World Tour or Pokémon Detective Pikachu; Not for you if you dislike slapstick, songs, or cartoony creatures.
Pros: cute creatures; energetic action-comedy; beautiful visuals | Cons: thin familiar story; broad slapstick humor; confusing mythology at times
