I tried to watch this once before, but none of the plot threads grabbed me either time, especially the whole typo-driven plot device.  Still, the music (all covers of older pop & rock) is pretty good.  Garth Jennings wrote and co-directed with Christophe Lourdelet, eleven years after The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

Likes: the "scenery" and "sets," voice acting, music.  Dislikes: the character design and writing.  Chris Renaud directed, three years after Despicable Me 2.
