Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Taking the cue for its visual conception from sources as diverse as British cartoonist Gerald Scarfe and the antic, rubbery surrealism of Tex Avery's Warner Bros. Cartoons of the 30's, this madcap caper from French writer/director Sylvain Chomet is one of the most delightfully skewed animated films in recent memory. Scoring such a thorough original is no easy task, but composer/musician Benoit Charest has more than risen to the occasion. Charest manages to evoke the loopy musical spirit of legendary Warner and Disney animation legend Carl Stalling in an entirely new context, fusing the score's snappy, predominantly le hot jazz mindset with everything from hip-hop and Bach (credited her as "Jean Sebastien") to the Italian opera farrago "Cieco Cieco Barber" and 1960s proto-surf-rock of "Pa Pa Pa Palavas." But that conceptual stew isn't the least of Charest's delightful surprises, as he giddily infuses it with his own Django-esque guitar stylings and a hodge-podge of "found" rhythmic instruments that include bicycle wheels, refrigerator shelves and a vacuum cleaner; surely there must be a kitchen sink buried in the mix somewhere. The result is a score that uses tradition as but a launching pad for one of the most rewarding and delightfully original animated scores in recent memory. -- Jerry McCulley Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - Loved it!This was such a sweet movie and I just had to get the soundtrack from the movie! I was not disappointed at all. I had searched other web sites for the soundtrack and even ordered it elsewhere, but it never arrived and after a month of trying to get a refund. I checked on Amazon and found it!!! I immediately ordered it. Of course, I also got my refund from the other location. Once it arrived, I immediately listened to it and it just brought me back to the movie, frogs and all. Rating: - Very Pleasing...What can be said? A fantastic score that provides excellent, cohesive ambiance out of context and filling a room. Very pleasing. Fans might enjoy Paris Combo, Pink Martini, Squirrel Nut Zippers, other pop hits by "M", etc. - k Rating: - amy's ratingI love this movie and the dvd was cheap and had no scratches or problems with it, I couldn't find it anywhere else. Rating: - Top notch filmI always know a film is great when I replay scenes in my mind and view the world through the lens of the film for many days later. The animation was terrific. The scenes were artistic in their rendering and the limited dialogue was true to the tradition of European animation. The sound track has kept me humming and singing the tunes ever since. Definitely five stars in my book. Rating: - Triplets of Belleville - One of the Very BestWonderful movie...the music was outstanding and the characters believable. The animation was like watching a well drawn picture come to life. I would recommend this to anyone that enjoys seeing the fruits of very creative people. |
