Don't even think about it! This is not your average anime-like cartoon or even a "let's get a family night out" movie! This is a decent flick, in some ways similar with Atlantis - The Last Empire, though not quite the same.
I would like to comment on the very end (so don't read it until you watch the whole film!), on a couple of themes: 1. The "hero" finds a way to peace by terminating HIS OWN BOSS. Well, very nice, but he's in the military! Well, the writer had to fine balance the military loyalty, the feeling of the "killing machine" and on the other hand the fact that the general made a military coup to take the power from the civilians... Think yourselves of the choices he makes...
2. The very final scene, with the monstrous statue being built... Well, in these parts of the world such a way of "honoring" someone is defined as "personality cult" and this is why I find it ungodly... If they found a way of naming the dome-town after him, or something like that maybe it wouldn't have been so awful... But this clearly ruins the effect searched for the end of the movie.
To conclude, not a waste of time
