Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System

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.

Kirandeep Yoder The joyful confection is coated in a sparkly gloss, bright enough to gleam from the darkest, most cynical corners.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

gian_99 This was on TV one night I wasn't feeling sleepy and I started watching it out of curiosity (I had never heard of the movie). Think about it as a cross between Amelie and Indiana Jones. The movie is fast paced and funny... I suspect I might have enjoyed it more if I could have watched it in French (and understood French). The CG scenes with the mummies were not too credible, or maybe starting to show their age, but that's not so important in this kind of movie. Good.

bagabaga77-1 A genuine romp, funny, zany, with fabulous characters. Adele Blanc-Sec is the hero every young girl longs to be. The film mixes a bit of Indiana Jones, Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events and Pippi Longstocking. Louise Bourgoin is gorgeous and ferocious - I want her on my team! Everyone I know should see this and enjoy all its impossibilities, thrills and pure adventure.

Armand adventures. humor. splendid images and perfect choice for the lead role. nice performance and the same Basson. a film who not gives nothing unexpected but confirms a lot. a movie who has flavor of fairy tale and charm of French cinema but who is defined by fine manner to present an original story in a precise manner , using fireworks, interesting cast and few drops of cultural references for better level of entertainment. a show in deep sense, in Luc Besson style, who , after its end, remains charming at whole. a courageous young woman and her fight for noble purpose. one of films who opens a large window to childhood memories.

richwgriffin-227-176635 First of all, why isn't this film better known? I discovered it by accident on DVD and what a total delight it is! (: Every single aspect of the filmmaking works! The camera work, sets, costumes, editing, (witty) script, performances (esp. Louise Bourgoin, who should be a major major movie star!), direction (I don't always like Luc Besson, but he's brilliant here), great special effects, the best use of animation with live action I have ever seen. I love every single thing about this movie! I love that it is 1:47; some of these types of films are too long but this movie is just the right length. I absolutely implore you to watch the film in FRENCH, and not in English - it's a totally different experience and it only works in its' native language. (Simply go to the setup and switch to French).French actors get a chance to do something completely different and without exception everyone delivers! I was captivated every single moment of this movie! It's a must-see! And why isn't Louise Bourgoin a better known French actress? She's a total delight!
