The gloomy color and weird atmosphere of the film as a whole, people who are used to watching the blockbuster, probably can't stand it... But in fact, personally, this film is quite entertaining.
The male protagonist is like a replica of Asimodo, the weird clock tower. The tall and awkward appearance and gentleness, delicate and innocent inner
heroine also have a gypsy style of Esmeralda, who dares to love and hate, and is brave to make decisions. However, She is a little girl, but she is very precocious (looks very beautiful, very mature, I really like it!)
The little brother who doesn’t know anything except what to eat, always has big innocent and melancholy eyes, full of dreams, the
whole film never It makes people think of Hollywood for a minute. It uses images and stories to express a certain metaphor, a certain dream, which is what European directors are good at. Let
’s look at it. You may not understand or like it, but there is still a child in my heart. Of adults may find it interesting

  • Krank: Irvin?

    L'oncle Irvin: I've got a migraine!

    Krank: Irvin, you know all about feelings. Won't you try to help me? Won't you explain why all those children only have nightmares?

    L'oncle Irvin: Because you are their nightmare. You could persecute all the children in the world, but there's one thing you'll never have.

    Krank: What?

    L'oncle Irvin: A soul.

    Krank: Because you believe you have one? You don't even have a body. The one who created us made us all monsters.

    L'oncle Irvin: No Krank, you're wrong. You are the only monster here.

    Krank: [Distressed] Be Quiet! He is the only one responsible for that, I say I'm innocent. I'm innocent!

    Krank: [Shuffles away and then turns back with regained composure] In any case, I thank you for your help.
