We watched this yesterday and my son stayed for all of it. As a family we really liked it. My wife made a comment about the CGI, something mentioned in The Guardian review, but that paper did not like as much as we did.
I would have to agree that it has a predictable plot and the characters are stereotyped, but the strength of the film is in how it is put together. The characters are not overdone as in many films that try to be like this. The other strength is how twisted it is. While many will find the black humour to be too bleak, we all found it hilarious.
I doubt we will ever watch it again, but I am glad we did so, not just because we watched it as a family, but because it was a good film.
