Is that all Luc Besson can do?
Saw this movie for his name. According to the hype, it is still his masterpiece. Such a work is not a heavyweight by any means, it is nothing more than a simple fairy tale with a lot of stars invited. In terms of creativity, there are many more wonderful stories in Zheng Yuanjie's fairy tales than this one. In terms of animation, many Hollywood blockbusters are much better than this one. In terms of emotional themes, it is far less delicate than some of his own past works. In terms of performance, the little boy is still quite mature, especially when he saw the change in his expression when he received a phone call from his parents on his birthday, he was still very good at acting, but after that there were tears in his eyes, which suddenly made me feel that the performance marks were too heavy.
Maybe any talented director will have a day when their brains run out, but in any case, this is at least a commercial blockbuster that can be watched and entertained. Luc Besson at least has his commercial value.

    This is a very relaxing movie that does not need to consume brain cells, a freehand adventure in a fairy tale atmosphere!

    There is no childlike interest at all, how can Luc Besson, who can't stand loneliness, only make ten movies?

Arthur and the Invisibles quotes

  • [Darkos activates a pole that inflates a giant ball of mean-looking spikes; threatening Arthur and Betameche who are hiding under a table]

    Arthur: [uneasy] That's not good.

    Betameche: [in a high-pitched, terrified squeak] Nah-uh.

  • [first lines]

    Narrator: [a photo album unlatches and opens to a picture of a bearded man] This is Archibald Suchot, a treasure hunter, explorer, and engineer. He spent 10 years in Africa building every type of useful thing. Oh, by the way, it's in the heart of Africa that our story begins.

    Narrator: [cut to a country road] Well, this really isn't Africa, it's Connecticut, and this is the house Archibald lived in before he mysteriously disappeared. But that's a story that Archibald's grandson would be more qualified to tell you. We'll see that he's quite a charming kid, who answers to the name of Arthur.
