i cant even describe my dissapointment ..

i know it was well animated .. but it just had the same thing over and over again.
the characters were all unlikeable and without depth too.

it goes hand in hand with the last batch of starwars films .. all show and no soul.

looking at reviews i kept seeing references to the 'steam punk' genre of film ... (jules verne type stuff)

is there so much of this stuff and is it so important that it needs a genre label pinned on it ?
