Yes, it's a good family film. Lively and not too complex.
It's just kind of rotten that the credits for the film make no note of Winsor MacKay, without whom so much of the basis for this film simply would not exist. McCay's amazing imagination expressed through his comic strip LIttle Nemo in Slumberland contained most everything of which this film is composed, minus the search aspects which are kind of weak and don't really carry the film forward. It's the cities and fantastic landscapes, the dreamlike aspects of Slumberland that all draw from McCay's graphics, that make this film really special. But without credit, this feels like a corpse being robbed.
It doesn't deserve any further comment or review. The producer and director should be ashamed.
