Here’s a modestly entertaining stop-motion family film with a fuzzily retro homemade aesthetic and a warming gentle Englishness: decent enough, but stretched perilously thin. Read full review

The handcrafted feel of the film is mainly a virtue, setting it apart from the vast majority of animated fare. Read full review

I loved this film. Having watch most of what LA is producing, this was a refreshing change. Strong story, well developed characters with balance of female and male parts with some strong roll models on each. Hedy was a revelation, to see a character that was clearly on the autistic spectrumI loved this film. Having watch most of what LA is producing, this was a refreshing change. Strong story, well developed characters with balance of female and male parts with some strong roll models on each. Hedy was a revelation, to see a character that was clearly on the autistic spectrum have some a pivital role was great. The attention to detail and hand crafted feel, adds a timeless feel to the film. One to definitely watch!… Expand

I watch the with my husband and kids. Loved it. Its very different to the Hollywood films, but just as good. The story is fantastic, with great characters and role models. We laughed and cried together. A great Family film!

This is one of those rare films that appeals to both the younger members of the family all the way to the septuagenarians! Lovely characters and very strong female roles. He’d the badger is a genius level inventor, Maggie is an explosives expert and mum is a major martial artist!This is one of those rare films that appeals to both the younger members of the family all the way to the septuagenarians! Lovely characters and very strong female roles. He’d the badger is a genius level inventor, Maggie is an explosives expert and mum is a major martial artist! Hilarious gags that appeal to everyone. Like an animal animated Harold Lloyd lots of great slapstick jokes. I would recommend wholeheartedly… Expand
