Rotten Tomatoes (86% vrs 82%); Also scored "A" with CinemaScore. The songs were throwaways in the live action version. It also hews closer to the book. I wasn't fond of the animated version as I felt the animation style didn't work (Xeroxgraphy is not a style for everything) and felt it looked kind of stick-figured. The remake also fared far better with critics overall.Again, it’s a pale imitation. It half-assed the songs it did, and most of the performances were half-assed as well.
Also gonna need a source on “did better with the public”
