I can’t think of a film that I saw in the theater and then ended up seeing again on video within the same year. I don’t usually have the time to re-watch stuff, so I usually just watch stuff that is new to me. But this was an occasion for watching a film that I had seen in the theater with my son, who had not seen it. Lucky enough, that I thought it was one of the most fun films that I had seen this year.
It held up pretty well on a second viewing, moving a little faster perhaps than the first time through. The light tone and clever designs are quite charming and fun. I liked it again.
