This is an alright game, with some obvious but expected flaws. If you're getting it for your kids, I'm sure they'll have fun, but if you're getting it for any other reason, consider any of the hundreds of better titles on the system.
The controls are often unresponsive or limited by your current actions (see swinging from branch to branch in level 9.. or any level that requires a series of precise jumps) and a few graphical glitches where characters will reset their models and lose any fluidity in their movements make the game a little disappointing.
The biggest draw backs are the inconvenient checkpoint system, inability to go back and play levels freely and inability to skip nearly any of the dull cut scenes (a sin when requiring multiple playthroughs). If you're thinking greedy like I did and said "This'll be an easy 1000" just give up now.
