Could not like it, sorry.

Rating: 6/10 (11 December 2011)

Hi, I saw this movie yesterday in a good cinema, I got a maxi popcorn and a coke. Everything was great at the beginning but something hindered me to get inside the movie. I tried a lot but one second I was inside and the other not. When I first saw the poster of the movie, I thought it was going to be like "Polar Express" ,that is, a boy having fantastic adventures. I think it is because there were more than one leading actor in the film. An instant it is about an orphan boy, but later it turns to be the story of the shopkeeper who has very annoying attitudes. The station guard was cool, but all these stories were short and interrupted. As one of them is developing, it is cut in the middle and the other begins. In addition to these, those long scenes about Melies'es old movies are a little boring. After I got home, I searched about Melies and found that he really existed:) Now I am definitely sure that the movie was just a homage to Melies and nothing more.
Another thing is that the movie was in English that came to me a bit strange because I lived in France for 2 years and never saw local people speaking English with each other. Introducing Paris in English definitely does not work. "Midnight in Paris" was better in that. Sorry but I gave 6/10.
