Went to see it today. Its terrific! Loved it. The cinematography is spectacular, and the animation is believable and well done. Harrison Ford, as usual, slips into the part like a gravely-voiced glove.
Highly recommend.

I had thought it was going to be live dog mixed with CG, but I hardly noticed after a bit.

(4,942 posts)4. That seemed to be the theme
in all of the reviews I saw: the story/acting are fine but the CGI is overdone. If I do see it I can't quibble with the story as I've never read the book. I know it's standard for school lit classes, but I somehow managed to avoid it all these years. That and Gatsby.
May have to check it out.

And saw the previews. The scenery looked amazing. But I heard the CGI was a little distracting. I'll probably pass.
