Pros:
* stunning music
* the co-director, Eamonn Butler, is a renound animator from Ireland who worked at Disney. Which explains why the film isn't actually overly insulting to Ireland and is solidly handled from an animation perspective.
* Sliotar hits actually sound legit.
* the premise involving an obscure animal related to Ireland was cool.
* loved the production design, it really felt like an Irish seaside village
* the animation was overall gorgeous, especially on the elk. The elk dancing the traditional Riverdance was spot on and well researched, with the best camera angles that replicated the show.
* I liked the character design for the most part.
* Pierce Brosnan, Brendan Gleeson and John Kavanagh were grand…
