1941. Le monde est radicalement différent de celui décrit par l'Histoire habituelle. Napoléon V règne sur la France, où, comme partout sur le globe, depuis 70 ans, les savants disparaissent mystérieusement, privant l'humanité d'inventions capitales. Ignorant notamment radio, télévision, électricité, aviation, moteur à explosion, cet univers est enlisé dans une technologie dépassée, comme endormi dans un savoir du XIXème siècle, gouverné par le charbon et la vapeur. C'est dans ce monde étrange qu'une jeune fille, Avril, part à la recherche de ses parents, scientifiques disparus, en compagnie de Darwin, son chat parlant, et de Julius, jeune gredin des rues. Ce trio devra affronter les dangers et les mystères de ce Monde Truqué. Qui enlève les savants depuis des décennies ? Dans quel sinistre but ? (StudioCanal)

An animated film with a great premise. I liked its alternate history setting, and I enjoyed the classic animation which made me remember the cartoons I loved as a kid. The technique and the overall atmosphere of the film reminded me of Karel Zeman’s work. There were quite a few hilarious moments in the plot, but it also had a deeper and darker undertone. It was entertaining as well as thought-provoking, and I was satisfied.

I objectively give April and the Twisted World five stars. I really enjoyed it and even though it is intended for a younger audience, it worked almost perfectly for me and allowed me to go back to my childhood for a while. It is the essence of the French comic book school with perfect artistic interpretation, with a touch of Miyazaki, Jules Verne, and a lot of steampunk, and artistically it reminds me of the style of the Tintin comic book adventures. It is a funny and stylish affair with a pleasantly reasonable duration. You don't often see a similar game on what would happen "if". Overall impression: 90%.

A beautiful animated film that draws inspiration from the clean line style of Belgian animation. Yes, a few times I felt like I was seeing characters from "Tintin". An interesting story that once again proves that steampunk suits the French capital well. Definitely something worth going to animated films for.

It is nice to see that Jules Verne’s home country is not lacking in imagination even in modern times. This is very interesting, sophisticated, and charming even though it is perhaps quite naive for my taste... 8.2/10.
