As usual, we are of similar minds about this film. I was bothered that I was never "engaged" as a viewer in what was being talked about. It was more like being at a lecture about something that usually does interest me but the presentation is a bit lacking. The film felt flat and one dimensional rather than full of wonder and longing that this type of dialog usually takes me on. I didn't take away anything new or unusual nor did it spur me on to other thoughts and ideas the way other films of the "type" have done. The two things I appreciated about the film were the soundtrack (GREAT music!) and the animation technology - but that wasn't reaally enough to hold me. No, I expected the dialog to do more to engage me than it did, and I found it a lot more unfulfilling that I expected.
