The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Camille is bullied throughout this movie. The main premise of the movie pits two girls against each other. And, two women. Honestly, it's tired and lame. Camille is sweet and hard working. There is no reason for all the other girls to be flat or downright mean.

Orphan Felicie lives for dancing, which doesn't always ender her to the nuns who run the orphanage. She runs away to Paris and manages to join the Paris Opera Ballet, making an enemy of Camille and, especially, Camille's mother. With the lead role in The Nutcracker at stake, Felicie has to pick her steps very carefully.This French-Canadian CGI feature proceeds exactly as you would expect it to, with Felicie meeting jeopardy at every turn yet, somehow, overcoming all obstacles through her own endeavours and with the help of friends. At no point was there a single moment where I thought "Well, I wasn't expecting that."But this is not a fair criticism. As a solo male cinemagoer of mature years, I have sat among audiences where I did not belong - raunchy middle-aged matrons in Magic Mike, knicker-wetting teenage girls in Twilight - but I have seldom felt more out of place than among a cinema full of pree-teen little girls from ballet schools. Yet they are the audience at whom this film is aimed.And, on that basis, it is very good. Voiced in the English language version by Elle Fanning, Felicie is a nicely realised audience-identification figure: likeable, a little bit naughty at times, bags of pluck and application, she is so well presented that I identified with her, and I am as far outside the target demographic as it is possible to be!The dancing is also nicely done and takes advantage of being animation in order to push it beyond reality, not to the extent that it becomes outlandishly realistic, but enough to give it a "Wow!" factor.Camille's mother is a psychopathic attempted murderer, but we'll gloss over that, shall we?This is a very effective - and enjoyable - movie for little ballet-dancing girls, and I enjoyed it quite a bit myself. I'm not sure what that says about me, though....

I first watched this movie with my friend, and I could not quit watching it since then. The animation is great, the characters are great, and the inspiration for people to follow their dreams is perfectly on-point! The only bad thing is I don't understand how the romance between Felici and Rudy was at all important. She only knew him for what a week and felt that they were connected? Sounds like another Anna-Hans moment from Frozen all over again....

A cliché and corny plot collection story that a messing around girl ends up to be a winner. What a terrible leading character! She is a runaway troublemaker, a false identity user, a liar and a thief. She stole the letter from her employer and used others recommendation letter to replace her identity. These are the serious crime. Besides, she is bad mannered, no appreciation to the cleaning lady who taught her dancing skills, and blindly proud of her strength, turned out she failed the audition. No idea why this kind of character will success at the end. This is a bad influence to watch. 2 terrible issues in real life 1)teenage runaway, 2)false id use.
