AudienceAudience: 8.1

A grumpy ogre’s quiet life is disrupted when fairy-tale creatures arrive at his swamp. To reclaim his home, he sets out with a talkative donkey on a mission to rescue a princess from a dragon-guarded castle.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a funny, heartfelt animated adventure with playful fairy-tale twists, like Aladdin or Toy Story; Not for you if predictable plots and broad humor wear you down.
