The idea that someone could speak ill of this is unfathomable. You will only fail to enjoy this movie if you come in with wildly inaccurate expectations. This is perhaps not the MOST cerebral flick around, but it isn't like there is nothing to chew on from that angle. As a tale of one man's search for an almost philosophers stone-esque ideal, it's explores its chosen intellectual premises quite thoroughly. Don't waste your time watching this solo. Some of the historical references are just a touch on the obscure side, enough that having some extra manpower around to increase the chances someone knows what is going onwill increase your enjoyment. While there isn't strictly any actual comedy in the movie, you'll be hard pressed not to burst into laughter at times.

MOSTLY though, this film is incredible because it is like a million rad as hell things crammed into a single movie, mostly coherently. This film has everything. Cool steampunk necromancy bullshit, Ulysses S. Grant, 007, flamethrowers, the Afghan War but with zombie ninjas, frankensteins, samurai, seriously they covered it all. All animated with the sort of love and attention we've come to expect from the increasingly well resourced Wit Studios.
