I've heard some adults say this is too much of a kids movie. They probably thought this was like Shrek where kids laugh at the slapstick while parents laugh at the double meanings in the dialogue.

This is a real, clean fun family movie where parents don't have to worry about having to explain "innuendos" or gross jokes to their kids.

That doesn't mean the comedy here is like something out of Teletubbies or Barney's. The leads after all is a grown up man and an adult rat.

These two have to navigate a plot where they learn about having confidence, responsibility, friendship, and not pre-judging others just because they are different. This is stuff any young adult has to face when starting on their own.

This movie has a good story plus at least one moral lesson at the end.
