Setting/Aesthetic/Feel: 3/5
There was definitely a prairie/Wild West/farm feel, which was quite nice. I'm not a fan of over-bright animations but I didn't mind this too much. Also, watching characters cross the country always makes me wanna travel so badly!!
Characters: 3/5
The characters were pretty one-dimensional and shallow. Emmett was way too clumsy at first. But I guess for a kids' film they were okay.
Plot: 3/5
Some stuff was wildly inaccurate, but overall it was a fun, simply film with some quite funny moments. Even the inaccurate stuff was quite amusing. I enjoyed watching the vacation and the search for the animals, and the climax was enjoyable... yeah, overall, it was a fun film.
Theme/Message/Topics: 4/5
I enjoyed the message of believing in yourself and trying new things over and over.
Content: 4/5 (low)
Possibly some mild euphemisms.
Overall: 3/5
