In short, The Magic Roundabout is an enjoyable family film that will delight young audiences and is liable to send nostalgic 30-somethings on a (sadly, futile) quest to find the original series on DVD. Worth seeing.

For all its undeniable promise, this take on The Magic Roundabout is just plain disastrous in its execution.
