Not as good as the French animation of Hollywood Disney DreamWorks Fox

In addition to the classic animations produced by the big American animation companies, foreign excellent animations always excel in exotic features. It's as if Indian Bollywood films have grown more and more international, but still have a strong Indian identity - singing and dancing, gorgeous saris and Indian humor. I won't mention the good parts of this film. The pictures are beautiful, the music is moving, the plot twists and the characters are interesting. There are a few small issues that I will share with my personal subjective opinions:
1. Why use such a super common sense creature as a flea? Because fleas are vampires that everyone hates, even if they can play music, they are lonely, they are kind and innocent, I think they are also blood-sucking pests! Why not fabricate a "monster" out of thin air to be reasonable and have room to play. However, when the flea sings in the film, he recalls his own experience from the first perspective, which has both a jumping visual impact and a gray sadness.
2. Does anyone think that the two male protagonists representing justice are very similar to Sherlock and Watson? ! I thought it was deliberately making fun of the two classic characters, but there was no more hint, and there is no need for the French to pay tribute to the British TV series characters when doing animation.
3. The heroine's eyes are a bit imitating the characters of "Zombie Bride" - oversized eyeballs! In fact, French girls don't have to be like this, and the female conductor who "Watson" fell in love with seemed to be wearing a cheongsam and combing her hair at first! So I thought she was designed to be a Chinese character, but in the end it didn't feel like she was Chinese.
4. The evil forces were shaped to be a little extreme and vicious, so the film finally turned into a struggle between good and evil - of course, in the end, goodness defeated evil. Many people said that at first they thought that the heroine would come to Beauty and the Beast with Flea King. I didn't have the idea of ​​going this route. Fortunately, it finally proved that the screenwriter still hoped the heroine to live a normal and happy life.
5. There are a few places that are a little strange when watching, and the overall saturation and laughter are not as enjoyable as American cartoons.
Finally, after watching it, I still won't have the slightest emotional change to fleas, which is different from other cartoons, such as squirrels, such as mammoths, such as porcupines, and even such as beasts and certain monsters.

    Monsters are also romantic, French animation with French style and American quality. The story is a little weaker, and the music is excellent. I can't help it anymore. Every time I watch a movie about Paris, I have to say this: Paris, it's so beautiful.

    Monsters are too cute. The song is too romantic. It would be nice if the story wasn't so long-winded.
