Cute, Creepy, and Way Better Than Expected

Comics, books, animated series, board games... Petit vampire has been adapted in every conceivable form without ever catching my interest, even though I usually enjoy Joann Sfar's imagination. The very childlike art style didn't suggest that this macabre-cute universe would be for me. And while the feature-length Petit vampire is indeed aimed at children and pre-teens, I'm not yet old enough to miss a genuine success when I see one - nor deaf enough not to hear the unspoken "What kind of animated turd did you make us watch?" hidden behind the polite "Tomorrow, can we watch a Pixar/Disney/Marvel?" sometimes uttered by young viewers.The story itself is extremely classic, condensing the main lines of the comics and series: a young Nosferatu confined to his manor, bored stiff and longing for a friend - even a living one - to brighten his immortality. This could easily have resulted in a timid, sanitised family film, like so many European productions that sell off their cultural specificity in a futile attempt to imitate American models. But Petit vampire bursting with energy, neatly avoids that trap. Its greatest strength lies in its fabulous bestiary, which early-era Tim Burton might not have disowned had he solved his gloom obsession: the monsters here are colourful, party-loving and unhinged, giving the film a fantastic momentum that never lets go until the end credits roll. Along the way, it also discreetly brushes against darker themes - after all, we are talking about a child whose parents are dead befriending another whose parents are undead. The only minor flaw in this charming success is a certain hysteria among secondary characters and an overuse of picturesque accents that occasionally makes the dialogue hard to follow.

Very entertaining, for children or adults

Very enjoyable, with a lot of excellent jokes that made us (4 adults) laugh out loud.
