La rata pirata y otras aventuras para crecer

The Highway Rat (2017) -

I'm not sure that the punishment really fit the crime at the end of this one and I don't know if I really liked the story as a whole either. I felt that the mean little rat deserved more of a comeuppance and that the build up was too repetitive. I got the message, he stole from people, don't hammer it home so much!

Actually, I'd like the BBC to be more selective about the books that they turn in to films, because a lot of the ones that they have made lately seem to been a vague attempt to cash in on the success of 'The Gruffalo' (2009), with not many of them delivering that same great recipe that made 'The Gruffalo' and it's sequel 'The Gruffalo's Child' (2011) work so well.

So much so, there wasn't much to say about this one. The animation was good, David Tennant's voice was a bit annoying, but the story didn't really give anything new or exciting.
