Not only does this film earn my applause as the least cynical reboot of an old children’s franchise in recent memory, but it also has an adorable soundtrack, featuring songs by Bobby Lopez (of Avenue Q and Book of Mormon fame) and his wife, as well as a some inexplicably enjoyable pop-rock from Zooey Deschanel over the closing credits.
