Why The Willoughbys scores this way
Four neglected children scheme to send their selfish parents on a dangerous vacation so they can find a better family. Stylized yarn-textured animation with dark, satirical humor; themes of bad parenting and abandonment plus some peril give it an edgier tone better suited to older kids.
