While the plot is intriguing, following our heroes on a treasure hunt through a world filled with tattooed convicts, the film sometimes feels bogged down by exposition. The character interactions are charming, yet there are moments where it drags a bit, losing the momentum it builds with its action scenes. The animation is top-notch, and the voice acting adds a lot to the emotional depth. Still, I couldn't shake the feeling that it could have been more engaging. It’s enjoyable, but don’t go in expecting a non-stop thrill ride. Show less
