I loved reading the "The Wind in the Willow" by Kenneth Grahame as a youth, and hoped this movie would have the same magic. However for me it came up short. I just seemed like the whole thing was just characters going through the motions, with no real energy or pleasure. I didn't see mole being so crazed for motor cars as he needed to be, and the capture and escape from jail just didn't have excitement of the book.
