Visuals are inoffensive but don't have much weight. It's colorful and all, so maybe with a more fitting comedic style, it could've been better. This film has some slapstick, which is just kinda trashy because the characters move way too bouncy for that to work. It's like those live-action Smurfs movies, the animation just doesn't work for what they try to do with it. The character designs, especially those of the trogs, are lazy and kind of just dumb. They look like grapes with arms and faces.
All of the characters are boring or annoying. The protagonist, like that of Next Gen, is completely unlikable. The jokes are almost purely for a young audience, but there are better things kids can watch that are also on Netflix which families can enjoy because they have more to them. This movie feels like a worse version of The House with a Clock in Its Walls. Instead of having the roller coaster pacing of that, Gnome Alone just feels rushed. Not as awful as Next Gen, but not exactly good either. Maybe one of these Netflix Original animated movies will be good someday.
