... View MorePretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
... View MoreThe performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
... View MoreLucille 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.
... View MoreI watched A Monster in Paris with my boyfriend. I was pretty baffled to see the low rating it got cause I think it was absolutely brilliant. If you crave for something new, this movie would be refreshing.I love Europe arts, statues and buildings and Paris is indeed beautiful but I don't think you have to love Paris in particular to be loving this movie. The animation is good, the soundtracks are amazing, the artwork is beautiful. Especially during the Monster's song. And it has good messages. Do not be quick to judge. It was truly a remarkable experience.
... View MoreI really loved and enjoyed the movie. Made by french animators with a modest budget, this movie rocked my world. the soundtrack is awesome., specially la seine. Francoeur makes your eyes wet. The Paris in 1910 is very well created. Not only kids enjoy this movie,but also as an adult you can enjoy it alongside your children. The emotional scenes are well developed. It is unfair to give only 1/10 to this title. Just because it isn't made of Hollywood does't mean it isn't cool. In addition, 85% of the mainstream Hollywood media is totally disappointing. Overall, if you want family fun and a great musical animation go for Un Monstre a Paris. I find it the fifth best animated movie after Monsters Inc, Up, How to train your dragon and Toy Story franchise.
... View MoreI 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:)
