thiago s @Thiagostone Feb 1 Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom See more Jilly b Mar 8 madelines smile is so cute and i want to know what chicken helen tastes like also the ambassador of uzbekistan was susch a baddie See more Kasey R 10/26/2024 Great movie! If I could rate it higher I would. Highly recommend for all ages! See more 07/10/2023 Even 25 years later this is a lovable, warm hearted adaptation for children of all ages Based on the beloved children's book series by Ludwig Bemelmans back in 1939 focusing on a Parisian child who's oh so curious and brave at the same time played by Hatty Jones The time period is actually set during the 1950s as Lady Covington's school for girls houses 12 little girls headed by Frances McDormand as nun Miss Clevel about to be sold by Mr. Covington His wife dies and he feels it's best to close the school but the girls attempt to stop him in their own way The story is pretty much a collection of the many stories written as this young girl encounters many different challenges and adventures She has her appendix removed, meets a new boy named Papito, is rescued by a dog named Genevieve, and attempts to face Lord Covington It's a brisk 95 minutes but carries quite a lot of charm, childhood innocence, and Jones as Madeline uses enough of her spunk and creativity to succeed Her friends and Miss Clevel are just as likable Whimsical sensibilities are abound with director Daisy Von Scherler Mayer managing to bring the illustrations of the book to life along with the likability of its star A lot of great messages; we can't have something just by wishing it, we shouldn't judge people too quickly This is still one of my favorite childhood films and a very decent adaptation that'll appeal to parents and children for generations See more andy h 05/10/2021 A sweet memory for several millennials and gen zers, Hatty Jones undeniable adorability and frances mcdormand's undercooked presence make this a worthy treat for family's who watch the cartoon or read the books. See more 02/08/2021 This movie was okay. I did like it much more than I thought I would! It will probably appeal more to girls than boys, just because of the nature of the film. Some of the content might feel childish to older viewers, but its really a film for all ages. I liked Frances McDormand as the teacher. She was fun to watch! Nigel Hawthorne was also great as the headmaster! The story kind of got a little dry halfway through, and became kind of cheesy! Overall, though it was an okay film! See more Read all reviews
