This is a pretty good animated movie. The story is interesting and pulls you in. The characters are uniformly interesting, Jim and Nala are very good and well developed.
I saw the world premiere with my wife and two sons (8 and 10)at the Toronto International Film Festival and we all liked it. It was a bit more serious in tone than I expected. The theme around mankind becoming extinct was well balanced and quite well done. The theme around personal choice and making hard decisions was very well done, both Nala and Jim had tough choices to make several times in the movie. The ending left us all feeling a bit sad but was still positive. The humor throughout the move and especially around the robot is so-so.
We also saw Danny Glover and Justin Long at the premiere and this was quite exciting for all of us. Danny was very polite and posed for a picture with the boys.
I would recommend this movie for families who have children aged 8 and up.
