The Boxtroll lair is a beautifully-imagined space: a gigantic cave, crammed full of found objects, gears, lightbulbs and toasters; things thrown away by the Cheesebridge residents.

There’s slapstick and silliness to entertain small children and nefarious plots for the adult audience to untangle, making this a far more handsome prospect than any of its characters could imagine.

Vi befinder os et interessant sted mellem ekspressionistiske forskruede former, steampunk-teknologi og viktoriansk samfundsstruktur, mens Dickens’ underklasseskildringer stikker hovedet frem hist og her.

Efter mesterværket "Coraline" burde animationsselskabet måske have holdt fast i samarbejdet med top forfatteren Neil Gaiman, for denne gang fænger historien ikke HELT. Men det er da pænt at se på.
