Arthur and the Invisibles


Arthur and the Invisibles is a hybrid between animation and live-action, with most of the movie being animated.  Arthur is a young boy whose grandfather was lost a few years ago, and is living with his grandmother.  There is a stash of rubies hidden within their gigantic property and they must find it in order to fend off an eviction.  Arthur discovers the Minimoys, a group of small beings that live beneath his garden, and he goes on an adventure, with the Prince and Princess of the mini kingdom, to defeat the evil Maltazard . The plot is predictable and the animation is average.  It doesn't have the same sense of wonder that it should from presenting the same world, but from a much smaller size.  The ending with the toy car chase was disappointing but it does have a happy ending which makes up for it somewhat.
