Disappointing
Not particularly interesting. No memorable songs. No engaging characters. Mediocre performances. For the most part, it's incredibly boring and I was asking myself repeatedly "when will this thing ever end." The best moments in the film were provided by cameo appearances by Dick Van Dyke and Angela Lansbury. Those performances were well worth watching. Unfortunately, those were fleeting moments in a rather boring, flat and entirely too long film. Taken as a whole it seems a little dark for most children and far too tedious for adults.
