This film sounded intriguing, but proved disappointing. The computer graphics are fantastic: the level of intricate detail is amazing and the animation flawless. Unfortunately, the story, which starts out well, drifts into dreary action melodrama and the ending is too strange and makes no sense. The very premise of the piece is a contradiction: nine tiny burlap-sack beings are the only living creatures left on the planet after human-created machines take over the world. So these creatures aren’t organic but they aren’t robots either? Huh? Whatever. Enjoy it for the graphics — it’s worth seeing just for that — but don’t hold your breath that the story makes any sense or is anything but lame robots fighting for no reason.
