The Magic Aster -- Film Review By Maggie Lee, July 01, 2009 04:33 ET Bottom Line: This lackluster eco-friendly animation is a yawn for both kids and adults. SHANGHAI -- A battle between good and evil is waged for the sake of a wee petal in "The Magic Aster," an animated Chinese fairy tale so devoid of fun or personality that it only feels quaint. Shanghai Animation Film Studio, which jointly produced this with other Chinese partners, will find it tough to foist the $2.19 million project onto foreign shores except for the odd children's channel.

The story is set in some indistinct ancient time in China. On an idyllic mountain blossoming with exoti...
