It is a really gorgeous animated movie. The story is very interesting, sometimes heartbreaking. In spite all of this, they manage to put some funny moments which is rather incredible when you think of the topic. Definitely worth a look.

"9.6 Netflix new Nice finding in Netflix this time, really thought-provoking and great movie. A quote from Benjamin Franklin came my mind while watching this: “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. ” "

Watched in 2013 with Commentary (57 movies items)

" 1st viewing Note: This was my first time seeing this movie and I thought it was great. I'm personally glad that I saw it and I won't mind seeing it again. I thought it was very touching story and you really do feel for all of the characters. The animation was nice as well and I did how they went for a black & white style for the movie. I do kinda wish it won best animated film of 2007 instead of Rataouille (Don't get me wrong. I liked Rataouille as well)."
