CHILDREN'S ANTI-CLASSIC MOVIES ON THE WAY
Rick,
I hope you'll revisit this topic after you see the movie. You've decided what this movie 'is' based entirely on a trailer. I've actually seen it.
The movie is an homage to fantasy and fairy tales. Innocence and joy is celebrated, and the notion that someone can break into song in the middle of a mundane gritty city and be swept up in infectious joy is brought to life. The cynical elements of the film are merely the conduit through which the adult audience can rediscover that childhood happiness. The butt of the joke is ultimately on the cynics and not the idealist.
