You have to go into this movie with reasonable expectations considering this is the first movie Goro had ever worked on to any extent.

Enjoyed parts of it but couldn't help feeling like there were a lot of elements missing from the plot.

"This was the result of too much responsibility being shouldered by somebody not equipped for it" says Earthsea series Ursula K. Le Guin. That sums up this entire movie.
