Review of A Cat in Paris (2010) by Dan W — 19 Jul 2012
"The thrilling and tragicomic A Cat in Paris is not only a feast to the eyes thanks to it's artistic animation, but a wicked multi-sensorial experience".
Besides the seduction of all french movies, A Cat in Paris goes far beyond our imagination, and immerses into the story of a cat, that ends up connecting two stories, and the result is a fast-paced, even filled with suspense animated story.
I fell in love with A Cat in Paris' animation. It's so artistic that seems as a Picasso translated into screen. And with some great voice acting and a score that perfectly adapts to the movie, is a win difficult to forget.
But the movie itself is a mistery. A Cat in Paris starts maybe too promising and then sinks a little bit, when the surprise factor is gone, the ending gets a little bit long. And it has lots of ups and downs that just does not cut it.
But, A Cat in Paris is more about the heart-warming story, maybe too tragic for a family movie but with enough kiddy (I mean really kiddy so that's another critic) to make kids giggle. But the movie does not focuses on laughs but in the suspense and slight horror it apports to the viewers.
Dino is a cat that has two lives. By the day, he is the beloved pet of Zoe, a little mute girl that lost his father, and whose mother is behind the killer of him. And by the night, he is the partner of the thief Nico. Somehow, these two stories will get togeteher thanks to the man that killed Zoe's father, Victor Costa, and for one night, everyone is in danger.
A Cat in Paris is a mix of danger and cuteness, but the firs one is in much bigger quantity, so we can find a movie filled with tension and excitement.
