Loved the concept and the characters, but think the story and the comedy could have been a lot better.

My two year old didn’t really care much, but she didn’t complain either, as she mostly did other stuff, and she generally likes it when there are cartoons on the tv, even when like this, it doesn’t personally interest her.

Difficult to say, there are kids of so many ages as well. From the animated movies on Disney+, my daughter loved Wreck-It Ralph the most so far.

Isn't it all of them? I mean "kids" is a relatively broad range but I can't think of a Pixar film that's, like, too complicated or dark for a child to watch

Yeah. We watched Luca a couple nights ago, definitely a good kid movie. Encanto was, too.

Admittedly I'm not always keeping track of which films are by Pixar and which are Disney Animation Studios. Luca is Pixar, Encanto is not... I could have sworn it was the other way around
