Oh man....this thing was BAD. There are like 5-6 different stories going on in this same location over thousands(?) of years. You do not stick to them long enough to really feel for the different stories, they are not in chronological order, and they skip around all the time. Yes, the primary story is the Tom Hanks' story, but man, there really is not a flow for this thing, and so what you feel like will be a tear-jerker of a story, really just has you in tears that you actually spent money to see it.

Visuals are amazing. But c’mon Disney. This should have been a slam dunk. Just keep the original script and add the visuals. Easy. Slam dunk hit. Instead, lines were changed or omitted, some great one liners are totally gone. “The King has returned” for example. And when did Ed learn to talk???
