I wanted to like this so much, but the dialogue and writing is absolutely terrible in English. Maybe it is better is Spanish? But it is truly cringeworthy. The evil people say upfront their evil intentions in plain language, and no one questions it? I know it is a kid's movie, but one of the benefits of a movie like this is kids being able to learn to see through lies. My 5yo kid asked, "if they're telling the people the bad things they want to do why isn't anyone telling them not to?" It's so unrealistic that even a kindergartener doesn't believe it is real. (Also, there are unnecessary fat jokes. It's the 21st century; could we not?)

Very accurate view of the risks of unsustainable mining and consequences for nature and people and ... fun!

A girl, a dog and their best friend set out to save a mountain from a company greedy for gold. But the key is closer to home, with her helper pup, Xico. Very cute and beautful... I watched it with my goddaughter, it didn't arouse much interest, despite the colorful and charming graphics, the story full of legends and mysticism, something was missing... A delicate and gentle Mexican production, with social criticism of unbridled modernization and lack of respect for native culture, cute, instructive, colorful, with endearing animals, but regular, for not having touched my heart with the depth I expected...

It's a political anti-hydraulic fracturing mess. Whoever wrote this was awful and did absolutely no research into the process of extracting gold or where it can be found. The music is bad enough it sounds like I made it and that's horrible. The lines are so bad and if it wasn't for the decent animation it would be better to watch Dora the Explorer as at least it has facts in it.

This's something kids will enjoy. It has an easy to follow story with fairly likable (if bland) characters. If you're looking for Spanish-language content, this's for you. The animation's pretty good, the story flows well, and the characters are pretty likable. I'd say check it out.

Very simple plot with an intricate albeit inaccurate depiction of what fracking is. Seems like it was basically a full length production of nothing just to make a point about fracking.

At some points the music just cuts off. It was bit bad.

The rating is way too low. Yes, the characters are a bit one-sided, and yes, the story sometimes lacks of consistensy, but it is an animated movie made for children/family. And it woks perfectly in that regards. Visually stunning - a little bit similar to my beloved Tomm Moore movies, magical, and there are symbols everywhere. Culturally I guess is quite nice, but it's not my my place to judge from Europe. And it teaches a very important lesson.

Pretty cool animation of Mexican production, although the poster misleads the viewer because I thought it was a computer animation, and it's a simple 2D, cartoon animation.
