I'm a bit tickled by both Lena Headey and Sean Bean voicing characters. It's like FFGoT.
I agree with it being beautiful and I enjoyed its artistic direction, but yeah, it reminds me of what happened with The Spirits Within - they spent more time rendering the individual strands of the main protagonist's hair, than really developing a solid plot and dynamic characters. The graphics were lovely, IMO (for the time), but not enough time was spent developing the other aspects of the film. The same thing seems to have happened here (although I honestly like this better than I do The Spirits Within).
