Unexpectedly pleased with this movie! Adele is a fiercely independent, adventurous, and sassy character that tends to get herself in over head.
If you like Tomb Raider Lara Croft, Indiana Jones, or Mummy type movies, especially with that old-fashioned light-hearted humorous feel, this will be right up your alley. Don’t let the subtitles discourage you, they aren’t hard to keep up with and the story is easy to follow and very engaging regardless of captioning.
They say that they don't make movies anymore the way Hollywood did during it's Golden Age. This Adele Blanc-Sec film is just like watching an old Hollywood Classic film, except, that it is modern and up to date, despite that the movie takes place in 1912. It's a great and exciting adventure film. Don't miss it. Highly recommended.
A beautiful film, fun and exciting, by one of today's most gifted visual filmmakers, Luc "5th Element" Besson. A blend of Lara Croft & Indiana Jones with a decided Girl Power twist! Based on a French Comic Book series, this film retains some of the look of the original work without sacrificing any ground as far as believable human characters. A delight for fantasy lovers of all ages!
