Synopsis

Paris, 1910. Emile, a shy movie projectionist, and Raoul, a colourful inventor, find themselves embarked on the hunt for a monster terrorizing citizens. They join forces with Lucille, the big-hearted star of the Bird of Paradise cabaret, an eccentric scientist and his irascible monkey to save the monster, who turns out to be an oversized but harmless flea, from the city's ruthlessly ambitious police chief.

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
paulclaassen Fabulous! What a gem of a film! Action, adventure, suspense, fun, music and entertainment wrapped in a timeless masterpiece. Thoroughly entertaining!(Only had two issues: what was the purpose of the Monster being able to sing if he only plays the guitar? Why can't he talk if he can sing?)
palavitsinis Amazing scenery, well-made characters and lots of delicate humour that won't make you fall out of your chair, but will work overall. Such a cute movie with an unexpected protagonist, that you cannot even dislike a little bit! Nice idea, really special, with Paris as the perfect setting, as well as the era in which it evolves which is one of my favorites in such movies! This is a movie that you won't regret watching, it's a cartoon really fit for small children as well, despite all these horrible concepts that come out once in a while that can give nightmares even to grown ups. This is one of my favorite cartoons of 2015 - cause I actually discovered it a bit late!
pyrotechnic67-889-392816 Lucille is the girl of my dreams, or, I mean, well, a REAL girl LIKE Lucille is the girl of my dreams. Predictable story, but pleasant enough. The guitar playing, dancing flea. . . you have to be a child not to wince at that. I did not like the music. The credits listed the composers of "original score". Even what I think was meant to be the main song was not very pleasant. Bibo should have run them off and got another composer. The Paris setting is pleasant. I've been there and it brought back some memories. I think they could have left in a little bit of French dialogue - you know, the kinds of phrases that English speakers would no doubt still recognize - merci, au revoir, mademoiselle, etc. Overall a good time - I checked it out from the library, I'll get my own copy.
vanduci2 I saw this with my daughters (4 and 8 yrs)and I must admit it had enchanted us. The story, the characters and the music. This is one of those movies which is enjoyable for kids and adults also. In some way we liked it more than most of Pixar's and other big studio's movies. It's innocent, lovable and got that french feeling. There are some things that could have been done better, but it's not annoying while you watch the movie. The music is really catchy and not the kind of "sing anywhere, anytime without any reason". Now my daughters can't stop listening the songs and they want to learn both English and french versions:)
