A nightmarish steampunk fairy tale. This is full of interesting ideas, but it would be better if the main character wasn't a pedophile.

Visually splendid but narratively barren. Without a compelling story (which fantasy films usually need, at least for me) I found it hard to invest myself.

What a nightmare! There're so many horrified children this is borderline child abuse. On a serious note, the movie is great, but too grotesque for my taste.

Enchanting & naively nightmarish fairytale. Some neat ideas that mostly come through in the wonderfully creative visuals. Great dreamy atmosphere but uneven with narrative style & substance. There's definitely some genius in this but it comes across as whimsical & lacks the emotional attachment it needs to make satisfactory sense. Jeunet & Caro are brilliant artists but not quite up there with Gilliam & del Toro as storytellers. Gorgeous Badalamenti score almost made up for the clumsy narrative.

I literally did not know what to expect with this film. I didn't even realize beforehand it was French, with Ron Perlman starring and a (seemingly) Native American on the cover. What a pleasant surprise; this movie is a visual treat. I enjoyed the odd steam-punk fairy-tale of a story, even if it didn't sink very deep for me.
