The animation itself wasn't bad. The story was, indeed. The lines were silly and full of cliche. What was more annoying was the soundtrack, not only the pop songs (europe dance style) here and there or the tune sung by the characters but the orchestral score was terrible. Why couldn't they just do an animated film instead of a bad copy of an american animated feature? I don't think they accomplished well mixing cell animation and CG, it can be done better but it's okay. I repeat. The story is terrible, the lines are silly, music is really irritating but the animation job is pretty good. Beside, it is not Danish! There are lots of professional from all over Europe working with this film. Also, the featurette is terrible I would have preferred the danish people to speak danish although I don't understand it but I rather read the subtitle than listen to their comment in english... There are very many animated features out there so don't buy this DVD, you are going to get bored as soon as the characters speak. If you really want to see it, rent it, save your money for something better.
