I watched it with my wife and kids (kids are aged 10 and 7). We all enjoyed it. There were some laugh out loud moments. The reveal was very satisfying and well-structured. I enjoyed the father/son/grandson dynamics. It felt like a really good allegory for the age of exploration, followed by the industrial revolution, followed by the need for an ecologically holistic approach which we hope the next generation will adopt. I also felt like they captured the generational dynamics well in the family - especially the similarities and differences between them.

I think part of the problem is it's really hard to market the movie without spoiling it - like, I was trying to tell my sister to watch it but I couldn't articulate what I liked about it without spoilers, except in the vaguest possible terms. But also, yeah, Disney sort of ran away from it, and I wonder how much of that was politics.
