We watched it too - DS1 (5) lost interest after about 10 minutes and started reading his football magazine, DS2 (3) didn't want it on in the first place and fell asleep on the floor whilst me and Dh watched it avidly 
Main observation is that I don't think Artem has a career in acting and what the hell was that accent he had going on?? 
Enjoyed it though - but I don't think it was as good as last years Aladdin which the DC still ask to watch a year later!!
