This adult-orientated, computer-generated animation isn’t an especially successful outing but still serves as an impressive antidote to the Disney-Pixar norm.

Norway may be wonderful for many things but feature-length animation currently isn't one of them.

Deeply unhinged, deeply awful.

Free Jimmy is a sledgehammer Norwegian animation that metes out all manner of cruelty to dumb animals, not least the ones in the audience.

They say an elephant never forgets. But even the most anally-retentive pachyderm would be desperate to banish this misfiring mess to the darkest reaches of memory.

You would expect at least a spark of wit. But no, there’s nothing.
