Very little charm, not scary or creepy, and lacking any heart. This was wholly disappointing. I had trouble connecting with any of the characters, although I tried my best to! Kat, the movie's protagonist and an orphan, should've been SO much more sympathetic than she was. Even the titular characters Wendall & Wild were pretty one-dimensional.
The story lines also felt very jarring and disjointed. The only thing keeping me engaged was the stop motion and the occasional laugh, but even that wasn't enough to make me care. There's something seriously wrong with this movie. It should've been amazing, but ultimately, there's no magic to be had here.

Ben Platt, the oldest looking 27 y/o, had me squirming in my seat by his portrayal of the most sociopathic teenager ever brought to screen. Even the cheery upbeat songs, characters all singing "you will be found," couldn't be more ironic and nauseating, as if mental illness only required waiting around for some savior. PoBaW is one of my favorites. This... was beyond disappointing.
