If it wasn't for Hugh Laurie and an Easter egg, I would pass. To get out of watching it, I colored with my niece as well as read a book then after the movie was over, she was so happy to turn the channel. I guess I was hoping high that it would be a movie like Pets where they go on a fluent rant of trouble other then conjecturing storylines from other books. It's not like I hoped from Mr Pratchett, maybe have started with the one before this or just stay away from this tragedy. He's had other books I've questioned but I'm a fan of his sci-fi so hey why not. This is proof of listening to your inner child. Rest in Peace Sir. You are sorely missed.

I really love terry pratchett novels including this one. The actors provided simple voice characterizations and that decision does not match with the tone or content of the young adult novel. They talk like they're speaking to four year old children but the script is not for that age group. Additionally the design of the scenery and of each character is simplistic. Sorry, but they didn't have the budget to pull this off. As a stand alone movie for someone who hasn't read any pratchett i give this movie a basic 5/10. Habving read all pratchett it's scoring a one out of ten. Like dune which uses internal observations, the movie doesn't pull those off.

I am older than a child but love a good animated story. This has a bit of magic and is funny. The alternate version of a pied piper story with talking cat and rats. The rats are not the vile ones we think of so often. They have plans and dreams of living happily. There are many small references to Discworld such as the trunk and a painting with the turtle and elephants carrying the world. Yes it is Discworld but a side story to appeal to all. Not for little ones who will not grasp the narrator who criticizes the merits of a bad story. DEATH (from Discworld) has a cameo . It ends happily for most.
