This movie had me balling by the halfway point. It was so, so beautifully done. The clay-mation was a fascinating way to represent the devastating underlying as a project of art - I think it was actually more effective this way. It held the childlike, innocence -theme to the story, but also created a really interesting method to transitioning between scenes via the clay-visual-effects.
I think anyone who rated this movie poorly is just someone who's uncomfortable with the story and who doesn't like to face any level of blame and responsibility for colonialism or the institution of the church.
