The Extraordinary Adventures of Adele Blanc-Sec (2010) |
<<back |
|
|
 |
Desperate to cure her near catatonic sister, intrepid authoress Adle Blanc-Sec braves ancient Egyptian tombs and modern Egyptian lowlife to locate a mummified doctor and get him back to Paris. Her hope is that oddball Professor Esprandieu will then use his unusual powers to bring the doctor back to life so he, in turn, can use his centuries-old skills on the unfortunate sister.
In Paris however Esprandieu is already causing mayhem, having brought to life what was a safe museum egg but is now a very active pterodactyl.
Paris 1911 may not be the healthiest place to be.

Lara Croft meets Amelie

A nineteenth century French heroine battles tomb raiders, mummys, pterodactyl's and sexism in order to save her beloved sister.
Very tongue in cheek this adventure keeps up a light hearted tone throughout and Besson's visual style suits the material perfectly.
