All in all, 'Abe' is still a very sweet exploration of what it means to grow up amongst a culture clash. What it lacks in weight, it makes up for in charm and great looking food. Aimed predominately at a younger audience, there is plenty for them to sink their teeth into and hopefully learn from, but for a more mature viewing experience, there just isn't enough meat to turn this meal into a banquet. - Joel Kalkopf
