French animation is a force to be reckoned with, and never more so than in the strangely wonderful, wonderfully strange APRIL AND THE EXTRAORDINARY WORLD.

Should appeal to precocious children... Adults may find it as derivative and simplistic as the steampunk aesthetic to which it's indebted, but for a gateway to more resonant cinema and literature, you could do worse. Full Review

[A] beautiful, inventive and uncannily satisfying new example of animated sci-fi...

Rating: 3/5 -- Fun, fast-paced French film d'animation that manages to keep its ideas from getting lost amid the steampunk aesthetics, frequent chases, and occasional explosions. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- Pure enjoyment, but then I've always been in the bag for humanist sci-fi, lizards wearing robot armor, unusual and meticulous production design, and adventure stories where one of the heroes is a brainy woman and the other is a talking cat. Full Review

There’s an appealing simplicity to this film, which doesn’t make a big deal out of its exotic version of the 1930s and ’40s...
