About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a gentle, emotional family adventure with a magical creature and a focus on belonging, similar in spirit to The Sea Beast; Not for you if you want fast pacing or lots of jokes.
Pros: warm, wholesome family tone; impressive dragon visuals; touching friendship themes | Cons: predictable simple story; slow pacing at times; less whimsy than expected
