It is a real curiosity piece in that I've never seen Anthony Hopkins struggle in a role before – not that the part was particularly difficult – in fact, it was way below his capabilities.
Quality at every turn. The female cast fits perfectly into character & wardrobe & then gives a masterclass performance. The writing's social conscience gives the screenplay its strength & it is never in any real danger of degenerating into anything else.
I liked the animation style – it is bold and has some distinct elements to it. The characters are entertaining and the short running time reduces the risk somewhat.
