best movie i've ever seen.

Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

This is a bazaar rendition of the Little Red Riding Hood, and it's definitely for adults only. It essentially follows the traditional story of Little Red Riding Hood but with tweaks and changes that make it infinitely more interesting. The changes veered me off course from the story I knew by heart, which made the ending surprising, even though it's not suppose to be a surprise for people that know the story.The costumes are like something out of Cirque du Soleil and an haute couture designer. The sceneries are characters themselves, a golden-hued and enchanting forest, where the chaperon rouge, several colorful mushrooms, a rabbit, and a wolf call home. The other is a lab, enveloped in darkness except for a spotlight on a steel table, that its only inhabitant, a sinister old lady, once a chaperon rouge herself, plans nightmarish things.The choreography is on drugs, it's mesmerizing, and then, there's the music. Emmanuelle Beart's singing that song lulled me into a happy state.It's a fantastic short film. I also recommend viewing the making of this short as well.

Jan Kounen's style really shines in this short. The warm colors, the perfectly implemented CGI, the costumes, it's all beautiful. You fall in love with the chaperon rouge (little red riding hood)and her surroundings immediately. Her world stands in strong contrast to the evil undergound laboratory where another chaperon rouge resides. The latter lost her legs when an evil professor cut her to pieces. She survived, killed the professor, but inherited his evilness. She wants to steal the last riding hood's legs so she can dance like she did long ago. A modern fairy tale with a lot of visual flair.

Here is an extraordinary garden where the boletus mushrooms, the chanterelle mushrooms, the death-cup mushrooms, rabbits and brambles dance and sing to music coming from nowhere. But in this garden there is also a rocket underground in which a crooked-legged old dancer regains the grace she once had. The little red riding hoods are the unwitting providers of healthy legs. By the orders of a witch, they have all been made to disappear by a monster surgeon. All except one, the last little red riding hood, who is lusted after by the big bad wolf, who is definitely not going to have this desirable bit of loot stolen from him.
