Trivia:

First Chilean animated feature film

I liked it as a movie, even though it was not true to the comic.

I have read most of Mampato's comics, and I am a big fun. When I heard that the movie was in production (year 2000 or something like it). I was very exited, but when I saw it, I was a little disappointed. First of all I did not like how they would put commercial use in the movie, for example it's use of the Internet (Terra). It was completely unnecessary, I simply didn't like that. Also I didn't like the changes in the parents of the kid. Physically speaking, they did not show the average Chilean citizen compared to the original comic. As a movie it was a great movie, but I will acknowledge that I was a little disappointed with it. It is a great film for kids though, and they will learn from it.
