Beautifully done, great production design, etc but confusing. Not sure if badly written or over-written and half of it was left on the cutting room floor, but lots of stuff that doesn't make sense, such as the weird focus on the perpetual motion machine (which is another gripe entirely) and sort of assuming we all understand he's a well-known science illustrator but it's not explicitly mentioned ever? Weird, and dumb of them.
I want to love it, and it's magical enough my 4 year old will watch it, but... not quite there.
