Other than a few scenes the stop motion is nearly indistinguishable from other more pronounced techniques like cgi.
I enjoyed it very much.

The animators have made stop-motion an art form and even if you are only the tiniest bit of a fan of animation you owe it to yourself to see what they’ve accomplished.
