Product Description

Product Description

Ten-year-old Arthur, in a bid to save his grandfather's house from being demolished, goes looking for some much-fabled hidden treasure in the land of the Minimoys, a tiny people living in harmony with nature.

Amazon.com

First released in France, Luc Besson's Arthur and the Invisibles is a touching computer animated adventure that makes up in look and in character for what it lacks in narrative originality. As a direct hybrid of Excalibur and A Bug's Life, Arthur stars a heroic ten year-old, Arthur (Freddie Highmore), who draws a sword from a stone to fight a miniature battle in the garden before finding treasure valuable enough to save his grandfather's farm from purchase by developers. Arthur's grandfather, Archibald, having long ago discovered the miniscule world of Minimoys, garden gnome-like elves that lived in his yard, shrunk himself in order to hunt elusive rubies that were hidden in their evil Mecropolis, headed by Maltazard (David Bowie). Now Arthur must assist the benevolent Minimoy clan, ruled by The King (Robert De Niro) and Princess Selenia (Madonna), in challenging Maltazard for possession of the jewels. Shots taking the viewer down through grass blades into the microscopic, yet gigantic yard world readjust one's sense of size, as do scenes, for example, in which a small, elven Arthur fights mosquitoes with catapulted tomatoes. Meanwhile, live action scenes of Arthur's worried grandmother (Mia Farrow) provide respite from a completely computerized world. Bowie, as he did in Legend, steals the show, bringing to life his Darth Vader-like character who chose evil over good in a past adventure. Corny one-liners sometimes spoil the mood, but overall the film's thematic blend of fantasy and environmentalism, like Princess Mononoke, will delight children with its positive message. --Trinie Dalton

Charged for new but received old
I ordered a new DVD of a 20+ year old childrens movie and paid a premium for it at $16.95 with the tax. I received an open, old, scribbled on copy that was clearly labeled $1.99. I feel cheated.

    5.0 out of 5 stars If you speak French, that is all for the better. With a bit of work, we English-speaking persons can enjoy this Blu-ray too.

    This is a wonderful movie, and it does play in all Blu-ray players. Just know that its first language is French, and you may find yourself digging for the remote to access the menu to choose English vocals instead. When you do, the voices of Freddie Highmore (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) and Madonna, and the live-action Mia Farrow will be much more pleasant.

    Although the sequels can be had in Blu-ray in English, this multi-language version seems to be the only way to obtain the first film in the series, but it is worth the cost and the slight bother. The animations are perfect, and the story is wonderful. There seems to be no problems with the translation looking poorly synced. I suspect it was filmed in English or converted with great effort. The writer/director is Luc Besson, who wrote and directed one of my favorites, The 5th Element, with Bruce Willis and Mila Jovovich.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Cute
    Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024

    I decided to purchase this due to reviews that said parts 2 and 3 were a nice continuation to the first movie. Yes and no. Part 1 was definitely better than parts 2 and 3, although I’m glad I did get to see the whole. It was a bit disappointing that every actor except 3 were different in parts 2 & 3 (Arthur, grandma and grandpa were the only ones still played by the original actors - well, maybe Arthur’s mother…not sure now if she played all 3). Parts 2 & 3 reminded me of Disney sequels that only come out on DVD or the Disney channel because they aren’t acted as well or the storyline is too cheesy to do well in theaters - they were cute but not up to the standard of the first one.
