This film demonstrates how Hollywood has lost the craft of film making, instead of using models, matte shots, forced perspective etc. the studios now use CGI ad nauseum.
Imagine how this films charm would have disappeared if everything was shot green screen, like they do these days. -

.It can be the devils work
CGI should be a tool, not an excuse to sell an animated film as a live action film. The making of videos on DVDS demonstrate how even the mundane of practical effects are replaced by CGI. But weirdly the producers still allow scenes of mismatched items like food being eaten, where in one shot the hamburger is half eaten and in the next shot there is nothing but a nibble, an ice cream is virtually licked dry in one shot and barely touched in the next. Cigarettes are half smoked then unlit etc. But a man walking into a shop is just a green screen without CGI (then a large team of people taking weeks to draw this and animating it with CGI) and not a practical set (a shopfitter and a few carpenters with a discount store/trade card for supplies and 3 days construction/dismantling).
