How did I miss this.  It looks like the cartoon has made it to the big screen in a good way.  Minus the lack of color with the casting, M. Shylmalal or whatever his name is is making this movie darker than the cartoon.  I don't blame him because he's making a cartoon come to life.  It wouldn't be believable if it was all bright colors and rainbows. As far as set designs and clothing,  I think they did a pretty good job.  It looks like it has the budget of the likes of the Narnia series.   They give off a very grand look. It also looks very original too. I'm suprised they shot most of the film in Pennsylvania. Truly amazing what technology can do these days. They could use a little tweaking with some of there matte backgrounds. It's doesn't seem to blend very well with the foreground. There's still time for improvements though. Like I said the only thing I really didn't like was that they didn't stay true to the colors of their characters.  It's funny cause there is a scene where there's two characters that are supposed to be a certain type of group where everyone is Inuit.  The only problem is everyone looks related, but those two.  That's some cause for questioning.  And to make matter worst, it's not very believable.  If  you're a fan of the series, you know what I'm talking about.  There's even been a big outcry about this too. Well enough of my rant.  Let's just hope they don't butcher Momo and that flying monkey.
