The Snowman and the Snowdog

"I was left stubbornly unmoved. Yes, it was pretty to look at (...) To be fair, Snowman II managed the tough job of balancing traditionalism with modernity."" 

"The new film is faithful in just about every way – in look, in spirit, even in plot (...) But I'm not sure I really see the point of it (...) It is more likely to cause bemusement or indifference. (...) Even the dog doesn't add much. Except for a happier, Hollywoodier ending, which is a mistake."
