Oh yes! That's exactly what I thought as well. There are way too many mediocre Kids CGI movies out there. Why not try a more mature fantasy one? The quality is absolutely top notch and can compare with anything Hollywood produces. But I guess everyone remembers Final Fantasy and how that movie did at the box offices. ;D

I saw Legend Of The Guardians by Zack Snyder, which was quite grim and dark as well, but still not the same.
