L'Incroyable Bibliothèque de M. Lemoncello

My daughter and I LOVED the books... and this adaptation is truly horrific. Character names and a couple of plot aspects remain, the rest is just garbage. I don't get it; the book was good enough for someone to want to turn it into a movie... only to mess everything up constantly. What a waste of a great book...

This show will appeal to young children and perhaps the young at heart. Most adults will tolerate it. Note that parts of this may be a bit frightening for younger children, so parents may wish to watch along and reassure them the monsters aren't real.

This is a Willy Wonka type story but done with all the skill of a Saturday afternoon special. The acting is uh, acting. The story is juvenile (go figure; it's a kid's show). Adults will either enjoy this or yawn. When one decides to watch a kid's show, it shouldn't be criticized for being a kid's show.

That said, it's one of those barely tolerable things. It does well enough for what it is, but it's more of an action/adventure tale that really doesn't have much of a moral or lesson to teach. However, children will probably wish to watch it repeatedly, which is the audience they're shooting for.

I give it 5 star mediocre even as a children's show. There have been far better such... and far worse. It will do to keep kids occupied for an hour.

This movie is nothing like the book it gets rid of all the best parts

I dont know anything about the books but it's clear this was slapped together garbage on a green screen. But my 6 year old likes it. So I'll sit through it. Guess that's the audience.

It appears this movie borrows heavily from other books and movies, however it is fun and clean and the kids get into it.
