Eleanor's Secret (2009) France

Everyone gets a chance to do something memorable.




Genre:
Animation (2D), Adventure, Comedy, Fantasy.


Original title:
Kérity, La Maison Des Contes (French)


Review:
     80 minutes short French animated feature movie. The story of a six year old boy who involved in saving the tiny magical creatures. A similar kind of movie to 'Le tableau'. After all, this was the first movie to release. I have not seen a single European animation since last few months, so decided to go with it and I had a nice time. Firstly, I thought it was a children's movie, yes it was and as a grown up I was not annoyed instead enjoyed it like a kid.

     A young boy called Nat, for him reading is a complicated issue. He always gets teased by his elder sister. On one summer his family is relocating to their ancestral house in a small town. He and his sisters remembers their grandmother who tells children's stories during visits to see her. After her death, they come to know that she left some gifts for them. Financially suffering his family decides to get rid of old things from the house. Nat mistakenly discovers the tiny creatures who need his help to save their existence. So the boy's quest begins to do something for others and discover himself. The beautiful adventures are portrayed in the remains. 

‘‘Just because it was invented
doesn't mean it isn't real’’


     Technically, it sounds great. The animation was very good and the characters were so cute. The story was not bad, but a little crawl in the adventure section. As it was a short movie, you won't get any frustration. A short and lovely movie for family and kids. If 'The Avengers' is for adults, then this movie is for kids. All the famous characters from kids stories came together for this. Sadly, everyone had less time to show their existence in the movie, but I expected a lot more. All in all it is still a nice movie to have. If any parents reading this review kindly show it to your kids as well.
