I'd recommend it. Aside from the log ride effects, it was well put together. A kid's movie, but not really just for kids. The child actors did a good job. The adult actors (Bill Murray, Tim Robbins, Martin Landau) were mostly incidental and not particularly outstanding.
A believable world - another dystopia. Has the retro feel of the "Myst" or "BioShock" games or something like that - also, the styling made me think of the toy in "Zarathrusta" (a futuristic variation of the "Jumanjii" story). Really nice sets.
I just watched "Logan's Run" the other day with my son and there were a few parallels to the two.
Not to give anything away, but the penny off the Empire State building bit at the end is a little unbelievable, but you have to let some of that go...
