Funny writing and great animation. Pretty cool how everything form Australia was brown and everything from New York was gray.

All the dark humor is fun but is so excessive that it prevents any real drama. Lots of farting and random animal suffering. Death is whimsical.

The main theme is nice, but the score overall is a little repetitive. Score is a big part of the animated experience, and this one could have used with a bit more variation.
