A Monster in Paris French Animated Musical
Reviewed by Teresita Blanco
Two nights ago, I watched A Monster in Paris. The movie was
a musical of sorts. It was like a mixture of the Phantom of the Opera and
Metamorphosis. The movie starts with a news report that will become relevant.
In the 1910s, Paris was mostly flooded. The canals had not been properly
treated and were causing the flood. On top of that, the river Seine flooded
that year because of the rain.
Afterward the movie within the movie starts. The two main
characters are Raoul and Emile. Emile works at the movies, his friend delivers
goods. Raoul lives in his truck. Anyhow,
one day the pair go together to deliver something at a professor’s lab. They
were received by a monkey. Since the professor was away, Raoul decided to look
at the professor’s inventions.
While messing with
the vials, the pair accidentally spilled two vials which caused a flea belonging
to the monkey to mutate. This made the flea larger and it gave it the ability
to sing. Yes, you heard it, the movie is about a giant, singing flea. Kudos for
originality, if you ask me. The movie was actually not half bad. I really enjoyed watching it. I recommend it
to those who aren't squeamish about tuxedo wearing, singing bugs. Still, it deserves 5 stars rating.
