I had never seen the animated version so I could not use that one to judge this one. But, I never do that anyway so it's a moot point. I found the movie totally enjoyable which, when it comes down to it, is what really counts. I seldom pay attention to music in a movie and, to be honest, was unaware that, unlike the animated version, there were no songs in the movie. To date, I have watched the movie 5 times, and will continue to enjoy it in the future. And, I would never tell anyone they should, or should not, watch it.
