Minuscule 2 - Alla ricerca di nuovi mondi

It was such a shame that I watched Minuscule 2 alone in a theatre. To be fair, the movie was going to get a limited release anyway and the theatre was not a convenient location. Still, one has to wonder "Why aren't there animated films as simple and effective as this?"

Being a silent French animated film with little backstory, the story would be so unfamiliar for a regular moviegoer. However, it gives the movie a unique storytelling that you just could not get in almost any non-Pixar animated movie out there.

Animation is simple yet effective. The story? Even without the dialogue, you understand the story but you would often be surprised at times. The characters? Even without names, you still feel for them because each character was well thought out.

This movie is a feast for your senses and I left the theatre a very happy young adult. If only most animated movies would follow suit and not go for tired and unoriginal plots in the first place...

A fascinating movie! Sad such artistry and meaningful projects are most times underrated and lost among incoherent mainstream clutter.

I smiled all the way through this! It is the definition of joy. My daughter (age 9) complained she didn't want to watch it at first but within minutes was glued to it, laughing and mesmerised by all the tiny characters and their adventures. Both Minuscule movies are a total delight!

The film is brilliant! Adventurous, moving, it brings back a true meaning of life! I never stopped laughing or took my eyes off the screen for the duration.

Really surprised with how much I enjoyed this film! Even though they don't have names I got quite invested in the characters and the sound track was brilliant. My kids loved it as well. The amination was simple yet effective. Really good family film.
