Rotoscopers
A delightfully deranged steampunk adventure, APRIL AND THE EXTRAORDINARY WORLD successfully translates the comics and graphic novels of France’s Jacques Tardi to the screen.

Pure enjoyment, but then I've always been in the bag for humanist sci-fi, lizards wearing robot armor, unusual and meticulous production design, and adventure stories where one of the heroes is a brainy woman and the other is a talking cat.

[A] beautiful, inventive and uncannily satisfying new example of animated sci-fi...
New York Times
Should appeal to precocious children... Adults may find it as derivative and simplistic as the steampunk aesthetic to which it's indebted, but for a gateway to more resonant cinema and literature, you could do worse.

Chicago Reader
3.5 stars out of 4 -- [S]o remarkably fluid that it almost feels effortless. It’s a film that values intelligence in an increasingly scary world, and that’s a theme that works for any generation and in any language...

"April and the Extraordinary World" is a visual delight, an animated French steampunk adventure that is smart, exciting and wonderfully weird.
