I liked the movie, but I'm disappointed that they removed some of the original lyrics and dialog from the radio play. In general the characters are softened, probably to meet some R-rating since it's considered a teenage/kids story.
The animations are a unique cartoon style really helps the to get the story/humor across. The sets created and general surroundings are creative and surprising. The creative way they've worked the narrator into the story as a character works, but it's a heritage from the radio play.
All in all a good story and you'll like it if you watch the movie before you hear the original radio play
7/10 - the movie
9/10 - the radio play
