The Bear's Famous Invasion of Sicily : A Charming Animation Movie for children and adults ! A Dazzling Success for Mattotti at Cannes! (2019)


Hello Hello Everyone !

Today i want to share this hidden-gem movie which i watched a week ago. It's a relatively new movie (2019) and im sure it's still not popular as it deserves.
I was feeling a little depressed so i started seeking and watching animation movies .
I love comedy/funny ones , they make me forget my problems and clear my mind.
At first, i watched -for the nth time- Sponge Bob SquarePants film (2003) lol then other ones like Tarzan lol . It's really hard to find an entertaining movie that doesn't require any mental effort or generates ambiguous thoughts ( such as Ghibli movies).

So i found The Bear's Famous Invasion of Sicily . The colorful cover and the design of the characters attracted me , so i said why not, let's give it a chance.

The network was so bad on that day . I stopped and resumed watching many times . But I insisted on keeping watching ! The surprizing thing is that I wasn't  angry about all the "halts" because i didn't want that movie to come to an end . Simply, I enjoyed watching every moment.

Graphics, soundtracks, story, dialogues were all harmonious ! Please take a look at the photo gallery bellow. In one word, a master-piece .
Fantasy and "innocence" needed for a children movie are there . And the moral -delivered so smoothly- is also there for more mature audience. That's the perfect "recipe" and unfortunately, that most 3D movies lack ...

I love french voice acting, so I watched the french version, and it was amazing ! it never disappoints me.
I hope everyone who pass by my Blog watch my recommendation !
