Sometimes you see something that looks so absolutely bad that you just have to check it out. Going in with the bar set to it's lowest parameters I found myself vaguely interested and not miserable. An oddly charming and cute cast with a very adequate soundtrack but everything else is pretty mediocre lol It's feels like a stageplay with stilted lines, overacted posing and behaviors, and it's all shot directly forward, no cinematic angles or interesting shots. The main kids of the central story, Scott and Emily are very cute and well played and made the movie worth the bad points. Without them I wouldn't have endured the 80 minutes but they really outshined the rest of the cast. There's a bunch of cutaways as the movie is told via a grandpa reading a book to some other kids and honestly all of that could have just been thrown out. It's boring and feels like it's just ripping off other movies. The animation isn't great but it's cute and absolutely acceptable for a kid's adventure movie. It fits the bill for an afternoon background flick to help fill the void of quarentine blur.

If you want your grade school child to be go through life exposed to minimal, paltry, vacuous, substandard educational material then this movie more than fills that role. Plot: Grandfather takes screen viewing time devices away from grade school grandchildren (actually a good idea for lots of educational/psychological reasons) to instead read them a fantasy tale. Unfortunately movie quality does not match intent. Even the children, at one point, remarked, "predictable". Grading: Voicing choice for our "Guardians of the Galaxy" raccoon was unimaginatively bad (D-); raccoon & other fantasy creature animation quality - flat w/no detail (D); animation of electrical force fighting magical wands - cheap & overused; storyline of magical amulets & spells (witchcraft?) book w/usual latin incantations in a stereotypical evil vs. good battle for possession (an unimaginative ripoff, D); acting or lack of (D-). Summary: Unfortunately cheapness makes money so they wrote in a sequel. Suggestion: Find fantasy that requires creative imagination w/thinking.

This film start with a boy and a girl playing with their phone, and their grandfather telling them a story scene! As turnout, this film is about a story of a raccoon "Rufus" and Abbott need to defeat Lilith to save their magic world, telling by a grandpa to his two grandchildren! Entire film full of boring conversation, and overuse scene! Such as, overuse the story telling scene, and overuse of the playing dumb scene! Make the film unwatchable! Barely intense scene is, Abbott using his magic power to defeat a dragon! At the end, Abbott defeat Lilith, and save Rufus with the magic dust! That's it! Another disappointed film!
