Dialog: C
Pacing: B
Cinematography: A
Special effects/design: A
Acting: B
Music: A
Enjoyment: Delightful, and visually unique. It gets more than a little heavy-handed with its lesson, and the ending is forced and disproportionately unoriginal compared with the rest of the movie. But for the most part it's a wonderful film. A

GPA: 3.2/4
