This is sweet to watch with your kid / young friend or family member but it's no where near as touching as the original (so few remakes are though)
The famous folk that voice the animals are interesting- if one is watching in English - and the human characters are good - particularly Dakota. But... it's lightweight work at best. Not a great deal of range is needed - or given.
There are laughs to be had though and lovely lessons to be learned for the little ones about friendship and promises.
What IS truly worthwhile though is watching how beautiful and simple life used to be back in the day. If only we could get back to something like that again....
