IGN's review praises it as "an emotionally resonant animated journey full of surprises."

The film has generated significant awards traction, securing four Golden Globe nominations, a record-setting ten Annie Award nods (the highest this year), and an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature. With a confirmed sequel already in development under Sanders' direction, anticipation continues to build.
