You can every scene was written because someone said "hey this would look cool. Now write 45 mins about it." They created this weak, overtold family garbage and were constantly throwing in the cheapest tricks to make you feel bad for the characters instead of making them interesting in any way. The youngest son never learns just so they can push the story forward and try and create conflict.

There was a whole side story about the daughter being supposedly special but they gave it no time to work out anything or give any answers so they can instead fit an entire hour of just staring silently at nice CGI.

If you want to turn off your brain for an entire three hours, it's nice to look at but don't expect any real story.
