Entertaining but with rare moments

[isaacochoterena · 6/10 · 13 October 2021]

In this film the plot is well constructed, although the ending is unsatisfactory.

The theme of growing up, maturing and how parents perceive it in their children is exposed. There are very good things like some special effects, how the story tells and how the brain perceives the phenomenon of growing up. Although there are times when it looks a bit like Inside Out and Toy Story, the ending feels empty and the closing is unsatisfactory.

It is a movie with a good message about growing up and with a good story to tell, but the ending ruins what was previously built.

Wonderful story about the circle of life

8/10. I gave it a 10 because I think the current 5.1 is way too low

The story follows a single father very dedicated to provide a happy growing up experience to his daughter by way of storytelling. All is well until teenhood interferes, so both father and daughter have to learn to handle it :-)

The costumes in the story world are bright and happy. The real life story is honest but also positive.

I personally did not find anything wrong with the movie, it's message, its direction, its acting, etc.

The only reason I think it's an 8/10 is because of me: I'm a grown up and not a parent. Still I rated it 10/10 because I don't understand the current 5.1 rating. Who hurt you? :D

This is too good to be score 5/10

I watch it without any hope since its score is so low. But, what is this, how this movie got only 5/10 Their Concept, Comedy, Fantasy and How it teach how our life gonna go is too good. It make me even think what should i prepare when I have a child. Anyway, this movie deserve more score than it be. For me, I give 8/10 and I really recommend this movie for Family who has child.

Don't you forget about me

This is a mixture of fairy tale and a story about parenting in general. There are so many little things woven into this and it still does not feel overloaded. It actually is a nice little movie that could - Omar Sy as charismatic as ever and a great father in one world and a Prince in the other. Though both roles seem to be dangerous close to extincion ... as his daughter grows up, her interests shift. And so do her views on who her Prince is ... sweet but also quite eloquent and really well told.

You may have to really concentrate and stick with what is being told, not confusing the worlds. But the movie really is able to make it clear where you are at all times. It also has some stabs at what we are willing to do, to keep the status quo (like using other people), not being forgotten or rather trying everything we can to stay relevant ... as I already stated, there is so much and depending on where you are in your life, this will touch you more or less I reckon.

Wonderful story

Wonderful story that only French production can come up.

It really connects future and past, and makes you think about the relationship you need to have with your child.

It definitely deserves higher grade than current (5.4).

How many times I wathed bad movies with grade higher than 7, and when I sam 5.4 I was unsure should I watch it or not.

Oh boy what a mistake I would make if I didn't watch it.

Don't let the first 15min discourage you, after that it starts to be very interesting.

Omar Sy is really great actor.

At the end I might be bias because French movies really suits me, from comedy to drama.
