I'm sure it got somewhat review bombed by homophobes but tbh looking at many of the negative reviews I can't exactly say they're wrong, the movie is pretty generic, it comes nowhere near as close to really striking that family dynamic chord that other recent disney films have. The overarching plot is a bit light, it tries to do too many things but does nothing overly well. It could've been a much stronger film about sustainability and environmentalism, it could've been a much stronger film about father son relationships, it could've been a much stronger film about the relentless pursuit of more. Overall it was thoroughly average and I guess that mixed with the review bombing means it gets rated lower than it should be.
