    The Danish word for crap must be Pear

    Complete waste of time. Really bad animation, terrible plot, and really bad voices and acting make this a really big waste of money and time. You are better served watching middle school film festivals than this amateurish and boring film. I can't stress how bad this is. Worse than "The Room". My 6 year old who watches Disney Collector asked if we could leave halfway through.

    Good for small kids (2-4), thoughful for those in between (5-8)

    Most of the reviews seem very off to me - I really cannot believe we saw the same film? Or maybe they reviewed it for much older kids, which is wrong.

    The movie has great themes and a great simple animation style. Even my kid at 1,5 just left his toys to watch along.

    Enjoy it for what it is: a great story with slow pace (like old time Barbar) and simple animations and voices.

    Recommended!

    Great for kids

    This is a kids movie. My 10yo has loved watching it on Netflix and wanted me to buy it. End of. If you're an adult reviewing this movie for yourself, take a hike.

    An hour and a half of suffering

    My young cousin wanted to watch this movie, so I took him to the movie theatre to watch it. The trailers looked OK, if not a bit cheap. But don't judge a movie by it's trailer I guess.

    We Start off in the sunny town of "Solby" were we get introduced to our two main characters, Mitcho (an annoying little cat) and Sebastian (and even more annoying elephant) Who wants to be a captain or something because his great grandfather disappeared at sea. the mayor of Solby disappears and they all go on an adventure to find him. Stuff just kinda seems to happen around them, and the awful animation and voice acting makes it unwatchable. I'm not gonna spoil it for you incase you want to watch it for yourself, but I wouldn't recommend doing that. This movies make The Room look like a master pice. How the writer of the novel (who I used to know) was satisfied with this mess is beyond me. 1/10

    Elephants and cats oh my! And giant pears too?

    Straight out of Denmark, and enchanting tale if intrigue and adventure, all starting with a message in a bottle. How fun is this Alfred, (my dear nephew) Natascha Mortensen and Elizabeth Mary Mortensen. This tale starts off a bit juvenile and immature, but I think that is due to translation dubs. If you'll give it five minutes, you'll be as enthralled as I and love this tale too. A young boy, anthropomorphically portrayed as a yellow cat with his anthropomorphically shown grey elephant portrayed as his buddy. As the story progresses the adventure begins! Enjoy and as always, put on your life preserver when riding a boat with the guys! Cheers, Murf
