Critic Reviews
An earnest animated tale of war and peace in outer space, augmented by captivating 3-D images. full review
A thrilling, action-packed sci-fi adventure that lifts 3D animation to a whole new level of excitement. Mind blowing entertainment. full review
Naive but ambitious, it comes across as a Battlestar Galactica vetted by pacifists, Clone Wars neutered for Saturday morning kids' TV. full review

A bizarre, preachy pro-peace animated adventure. full review
