I saw this many years ago--back when revival movie houses still existed in New York City--and I still remember having two contradictory reactions simultaneously (much like the French themselves)...that the style was almost surrealist, and also very much like a documentary. Perhaps I'll watch it again one of these years and see if one wins out.

Except for some amusing visuals and creative camerawork, the frantic style quickly became annoying. Could have most likely worked better as a shorter film.

"How a kid sees the world" could be the subtitle, as we follow a seemingly sugar-infused child holiday in Paris for a few days. The story really isn't there, but there's a lot of camerawork and early special effects that I enjoyed. But I never liked Tom & Jerry cartoons, and this is a life-like version of those. A bit too madcap for my tastes, but I bet it would have been fun to have watched it as a kid.

Like looking through the scope of a manic 12-year-old, this is sheer slapstick, acid-Looney Tunes inspired surrealism. No real plot or character arcs but such vapidness, I believe, was intentional. The high energy and playful camera work kept me laughing the whole ride through. It's satirical, zany, and a wild time. Let Zazie take you for a spin.

Inventive, but most of the sequences that seemed intended to be charming and free-spirited came across to this viewer as charmless and dated. Without doubt this is a minority opinion, but aside from a few moments I found the film painful and tedious, despite the fact the director is responsible for one of my all-time favourite movies (also a minority opinion).

The hyperactive style does get a bit tiring, but Malle's use of all these different techniques is just stunning and some of the sequences, especially the chases, are marvelous. I love the comparison to Looney Tunes, which is really quite accurate.

A brash mix of slapstick and surrealism, it's like Looney Tunes on acid. A part of me feels its characters may be too insubstantial to justify feature length, and indeed a few of them are just plain obnoxious, but the sheer animated spirit and energy kept me laughing. It makes fun use of cinematic trickery, but still there's something holding it back from being great cinema.
Aug 27, 2011	MartinTeller	72 _41%
Something like Looney Tunes come to life, the film is bursting with colorful scenes, zany action, sight gags, slapstick, wordplay, irreverent humor and wild camera tricks. I have to applaud the energy and inventiveness, it's a unique, anarchic and bold film. However, it's still a bit obnoxious. Very little of the comedy appealed to my sense of humor. It's all too wacky and madcap. Like Hellzapoppin', I admire the spirit of it and had fun at times, but I doubt I'd ever sit through it again.
