Magickmaker and I figured out why it's gotten such lukewarm reviews -- because the marketing is making people think it's an adventure movie when, in fact, it's a movie about a mother and a daughter. If you look at it on that level, it was really well done.

I went to see this today with SD and Dam-sel, after we dropped Dam-et off at a meet-up. Because of timing, we saw the 3-D version, but for once the 3-D did not detract from the film for me. I wouldn't say it really added much, but it was not a detraction in anyway.
I totally agree with ali's assessment; the story is about the relationship between a mother and her daughter, and how they come to understand and accept each other. It touched my heart in all the right places. Plus, I tend to like nearly anything having to do with Celtic themes.
...and it's PIXAR. I've yet to have many complaints about a PIXAR film.
