Strange World movie review: Dennis Quaid, Jake Gyllenhaal voice father and son in Disney’s visually striking animated adventure

  • Dennis Quaid voices a legendary explorer and Jake Gyllenhaal his unadventurous son in this visual feast that warns of plundering the world for natural resources
  • But despite the monsters and mayhem they meet, the characters never feel like they’re in any danger, and the closing scenes lack any real emotional dynamism
