It's difficult to imagine how and why we ended up with this remarkably lacklustre animation on our screens. I'm used to suffering mediocre children's films but they normally have some redeeming features. This one does not.
Poorly animated, voiced and at times unintelligible, even the children were bored and wanted to go home. I've not seen so many walkouts for twenty years.
We had hoped that the art theme would add an interesting dimension to the story and be something to talk to the children about, however instead we had a pound shop Ratatouille with a voice cast evidently drawn from hospital radio.
The Russian setting also seemed particularly ill-judged given world events. Avoid.
