Delightful - Belleville Rendez-Vous review by griggs
A delightfully strange bit of animation. The story’s straightforward enough, but it’s told with such surreal flair it feels like gatecrashing someone else’s cheese dream — the kind where everything creaks, groans, and moves just a bit too oddly. There’s barely any dialogue, but you hardly notice. The film speaks through sound, music, and the kind of visual detail that only comes from full-blown obsession. It’s eccentric, deadpan, and somehow weirdly moving.

Rather weird and not as good as The Illusionist - Belleville Rendez-Vous review by TD
Sylvain Chomet's talent in producing animated films is beyond dispute, and the characters are very well drawn in this film, but I found the plot rather strange and disjointed. If you're going to watch one of Chomet's films - and he is good - then I would recommend "The Illusionist" as being much better.
