Pleasantly surprised

My kid pulled this up on Netflix and believe me there's some downright awful stuff on Netflix as far as kids movies/shows go (weird, dumb...and weird!). I didn't even intend to watch this movie but I was really impressed with the animation and the cute/quirky characters. The story does lull a bit here and there but it's not too bad. I wanted to strangle the rabbit and the mouse for 90% of the movie though. ;) Good music in the movie also.

If you're just looking to watch a fairly lighthearted kid movie, this one shouldn't disappoint. We have an orange kitty that resembles the little cat in the movie too. :)

Just watched this on tv and I agree, it was good, had seen one review that said it was not that good, loved it
The animation was outstanding

I've just enjoyed this on Film 4 here in the UK. I thought the magician's house was a terrific setting for a lively story.
