Doesn't live up to original

This movie had a good combination of normal animation & CGI but that was all it had going for it. The music used barely at times complemented the story whereas the original sometimes added to/was the story. If you're expecting the melding of animation & music of the original, you'll be greatly disappointed. Only a movie 15-21 yo males can truely enjoy.
