A young animation with beautiful pictures, but the story is flawed

The picture is incredibly beautiful, and you can see the director's love for Chinese landscapes. The special effects are worthy of DreamWorks' strengths, especially the scene of the sea of ​​clouds in front of Mount Everest and the scene of the Leshan Giant Buddha are all classics, but I really hate co-productions. The plot is thin and mediocre, and it tends to be younger. I feel like I treat the audience as fools. Many characters suddenly change for no reason, which makes people feel abrupt and puzzled. Children up to third grade watch. what a shame.
