This movie was a big hit-and-miss with the Thomas & Friends community, and I understand why.
The moral itself is great, and probably would have worked with another engine (*coughGordoncough*), but I guess Thomas has to be the "star" of the film.
Truth be told, it felt like a poorly movie-adapted film of Season 11's episode, "Dream On".
The more upsetting thing is these international engines never even go the chance to speak:
Rajiv
Shane
Yong Bao
Vinnie has had a real mixed reception, given that he's a Canadian built and operated locomotive, yet he's given the flag of the U.S.A. to represent North America.
There's lots of potential in the film, but it wasn't flushed out properly and, hence, the reason it's a hit-and-miss.
