they take the animation very seriously with this film and the end result is a pretty entertaining film thats not saying it was good but it had enough cheese factor to keep me watching
The movie seemed a little bit rushed to me. It's basically a good one for the kids. And the character "Maltazard" reminded me of "Voldemort" from Harry Potter. It's watchable. I like Freddie Highmore's accent. He always seems decent and into this sorta movies. Cute kid.
I thought that it was inventive and from going to animation from real life was a real cool treat! It seemed like it was going back and forth into two different movies theatres but seeing the same conecpt in animated form, which was a really cool effect!
Nice kids film this! Although most of the story is pinched from lots of other fairytales and legends and the actors voices don't quite match the characters, its a nicely made film. I cant help but wish Mr Besson would start making adult movies instead though (Not those kind of ad... read more
Luc Besson make a pretty good movie that combines the real world and the animation world... The animation itself was pretty good, yet the story was easy to understand and enjoyable to be watched... Freddie Highmore shows his quality as the most shining young star right now I thin... read more
Fantastic and dazzling new combination of live-action and ground-breaking CGI technology in this magical tale. The Minimoys, a tiny people living in harmony with nature, were cute even Princess Selenia looked so beautiful. Totally original, hilarious and happy ending.
Not bad for a combination of animated & realistic characters. Quite long not watching this kind of movie!
A bit of fun. I had no idea of there were so many star-power voices until the credits.
Luc Besson doing a kids movie?! It might sound like a bad idea but this was actually a surprisingly entertaining family film with great voice-over performances from Madonna, Jimmy Fallon and especially David Bowie.
you may call this Child movie, but The meaning in this movie are for STOP Destruction on our planet... maybe you cannot save a huge forest, but you could start saving your backyard or frontyard to a nice green view...
Luc Besson has made a fair share of artfully bad movies. Arthur and the Invisibles -- half-live-action, half-CG kid's adventure -- is (by a hair) more bad-bad, like The Fifth Element, than good-bad, l... Full Review
While technically polished and adequately executed Arthur, like most of Besson's movies, is a strangely soulless experience. Full Review
Besson is a pro when it comes to action movies, but this part live, part animation effort is a mess, highlighted by creepy animation, derivative plot points and a child star who speaks way too fast. Full Review
Luc Besson serves up a hybrid of live actors and computer-generated figures to tell a not-endearing-enough story about a boy who shrinks to microscopic size to find his missing grandfather. Full Review
There's a reason American animated filmmakers don't use the great Robert De Niro, Jason Bateman and Madonna to voice their cartoons. These big names add nothing to this frustrating goulash of fairy ta... Full Review
This kids' cartoon from France is such a surreally demented attempt to connect with children that it's the equivalent of foie gras breakfast cereal or a bleu cheese milkshake. Full Review
Good intentions, a full complement of parts, and proper assembly do not guarantee a successful result. Full Review
Arthur and the Invisibles may be a tale for children, but it's got the bad habits of a profligate adult -- the thing borrows shamelessly from its betters and then pretends to be self-sustaining. Full Review
An odd imp of a movie, Arthur and the Invisibles may actually be filled with a bit too much invention for the average kid. Full Review
