Voyage à Melonia

WOW! Number one on my list of animated films... and ranking high on my all time favourites list as well. I grew up with this and I'm not sure how many times I have seen it, yet I seem to find something new to delight me almost every time I watch this masterpiece. I wholeheartedly recommend this film!

The style of animation is unique and really refreshing compared to what else is out there. It's a film for children and adults alike, it does not patronise the viewer and it's not pretentious. Nor does it put style before substance, which you tend to find is the case with a lot of the animation that falls outside the mainstream. 10 cupcakes out of ten! See it!

This is a classic cartoon movie with lots of meaning and the threats humanity faces.

It handles heavy subjects in such a beautiful way and it is suitable for anyone to watch.

You can watch it with your child or grandchildren and all of you will enjoy it.

I have watched this movie several times and in fact I never get bored with watching it and every time I watch it I notice something new.

Per Åhlins drawing of the characters is absolutely flawless and on point.

To round it off, this is a classic movie that everyone should watch and that everyone will enjoy. Some will of course enjoy it more than others as always :)

Resan Till Melonia is an early masterpiece from Per Åhlin. The Swedish readers probably recognize his other work "Dunderklumpen" or "Karl Bertil Johnsson".

The plot is simple, there are two islands, Plutonia and Melonia. Plutonia is ruled by two villains named Slug and Slagg, and Melonia is ruled by Prospero the all powerful wizard. Slug and Slagg has made Plutonia into an island made of machines, and made the children operate the machines like slaves.

One boy named Ferdinand escapes and makes the trip to Melonia, where he meets Prospero and all the other creatures that live there. Together they decide to rescue all of Ferdinands friends.

If you have seen "Dunderklumpen" you know what to expect. Pure magic. Åhlin is the real all powerful wizard. Don't let the language discourage you to watch this, I know that subtitles do exist. This is a true work of art by one of the Swedish wizards of animations.

Hi, as a swede i can say that this is the most beautiful cartoon movie ever made (its swedish), there has never been made anything like it, per åhlin has a special way to make his cartoons.

this movie fits people of all ages, it never gets boring. i cant discribe in words how wonderful this movie is, you immidiately want to live in "melonia" because its so wonderful.

this is my favourite cartoon movie of all time if not my favourite alltime-movie, i recommend everyone to watch it, i dont know if theres an american verision out but lets hope to the gods that there is.

no one should miss this movie ever, there is nothing like it and you feel overwhelmed with joy and happiness when you watch it. If i keep on this will just get boring to read, but if you see this movie somewhere, get your hands on it.

This movie reflects the culture and intelligence of distinguished European animated filmmakers. Per Ahlin's personal drawing style and characters are unique. The film is based on Shakespeare's masterpiece, the storm. First of all, it presents a strong message on the future of humanity, life and environmental pollution. This is one of the best animated movies I have ever seen. In my opinion this movie can be compared only to Miyazaki's "Spirited Away". It is clear that Per Ahlin is one of the most talented animators in the world. All children must see this movie ! And a last word: A nice treatment for humans suffering from Disney movies !
