We've all seen the original Disney animation, and I'm sure it's up there with peoples favorite - it's great.

The opening sequence started off with so much promise, visually stunning, well performed music performance and I felt a little teary eyed remembering when I saw the original as a kid. Unfortunately, the enjoyment stopped there.

The script, score and songs are close the original yet when they deviated from the original script it was awful writing. By far the worst thing for me was how detached the voice overs are from the visual. It's literally like one team did the visuals, and then some people put some voice over the top - it was not connected or engaged at all. Some of the sfx (or lack of) just added to the detached feeling.

The voice actors were average, including the usually. Great JEJ, who despite reusing most of his original lines, just seemed flat.

Seth Rogen however, was a stand out being both well cast, but also a good, natural voice actor.

Visually great, but otherwise poor. So disappointing!!
