Disney's 100 year special offering is imbued with a sense of heightened purpose, and this is perhaps why it feels like such a lost opportunity where the potential for an epic story with profound high-concept insight is instead a tonal patchwork of ideas loosely threaded together with lacklustre musical numbers and obtuse character motivations. Interestingly, this is one of the few times I would suggest that another twenty minutes of content might actually have proven useful to flesh out the ideas and provide much needed depth to the genuinely excellent but completely underserved premise. The visual watercolour design is beautiful, and Magnifico is a villain for our times, but what are meant to be emotional hits don't land, making this a sadly lacklustre experience with compelling ideas unsatisfyingly explored. There isn't anything truly awful about this, but neither is there a spark of Disney magic, making for a visually stunning yet strangely muted experience. 6.32/10
