This is a cute animated tale. It's about a clumsy Spanish lynx and his friends who are stolen from an animal rehabilitation shelter by an eccentric man who wants to help these endangered animals, but is going about it all wrong - including hiring a trophy-hunting poacher to help him capture the animals. The jinxed lynx and a few others escape and try to rescue the other animals.
The animation was good, nothing special (it's not a big budget film), but no obvious problems, either. The voice casting was average and I didn't recognize the voices - I guess the original was in Spanish, I don't know because I watched it on Netflix Play Instantly and it only has an English version available - so everyone had British accents. The characters were very good, funny, and likable. The humor was good (no stupid fart jokes) and I'd expect it would be a good family film. It was pretty fast-paced and had a lot of action scenes; some scenes may be scary for young children.
Overall, the message was good, but did have some flaws. The animal shelter was a positive place where animals could be rehabilitated and then released to the wild. However, I'm not sure that the whole "what good is it to be alive if you're not free" idea is environmentally sound. There are some species that are so critically endangered that captive breeding programs are the ONLY way to preserve the species.
