About

You may enjoy this if you like light, myth-inspired fantasy with a goofy streak and an easygoing adventure vibe, somewhere between The Bureau of Magical Things and Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia; Not for you if you want a serious, polished epic.

Pros: fun family-friendly adventure; likable group dynamic; playful, silly tone | Cons: uneven acting; cheesy humor; weak effects at times
