Fantastic Planet is an animated science fiction not for casual audiences nor for anyone looking to kill some time. This is slow-paced and thought-provoking journey that'll genuinely change anyone who sees it. Despite what the trailer will divulge, this is a solid and cohesive narrative that never feels confusing. So long as the viewer is paying attention to what's going on, grasping the story should be fairly simple. Fantastic planet examines a fantastical story of humanoid beings sharing a planet with larger and far more intelligent large blue giants. The plot focuses on the human's uprising against the superior species and presents a fascinating construct between the two civilizations. Personally, it asked surface level questions like "Do small insects view us this way?" While bigger questions arise like "What kind of statement is this film attempting to make regarding racism, intolerance, and cohabitation with different species?"Although this is an animated classic from the 70s. Showing this to the kids probably isn't the best idea. Not only does it include disturbing imagery and sexuality, its themes and story is best suited for a mature audience ready for more of an animated experience. For any animation or science fiction buffs, this film is definitely one to check out. For the casual movie-goer, might want to skip this one save your head from more scratching than it would like.

Almost everything about Fantastic Planet is weird. The premise is weird, the designs are weird, the environments are weird, and even the animation style is weird. And that's why I love it. It's surreal, creative, and incredible from start to finish. I love the designs of the characters, creatures, and environments, and I love the bizarre animation style. As for the plot/premise, I believe it serves as a good metaphor for how we treat animals. I also enjoyed the voice acting in the English dub, for the Draags in particular. Their monotone voices perfectly fit their near soulless facial expressions, and give off a somewhat unsettling vibe. Personally, I highly recommend this movie to anybody who loves surrealist art, animation, or or who simply wants to see a much more different animated film than most that come out.

This film is made by René Laloux who is French. This film's original name is "La Planète Sauvage". This film's genre is in science fiction. The original story is novel by Stephen Ur who is French. Place of this film is in any planet. There are Doragu group of the giants and Om group of the little people in the planet. Doragu group's appearance seems alien and has the ears looking like fish gills. Om group of the little people look like human. This planet has been dominated by the Doragu group. Om group is often at the mercy of the Doragu group. This film begins from the scene that a mother of Om group holding a baby escapes from a person of Doragu group. Then, the mother cannot live, however, her baby can alive. The baby is picked up by the children of Doragu group. And, he is brought up by her for her pet. This film is very ideological. If you watch the film, you maybe feel the fear. Because, in this movie is drawn stupidity of human beings too.

Made in 1973, Fantastic Planet predates most mature animation. I think the only piece I've loved before this is Fantasia, three decades prior. But Fantastic Planet isn't just adult. Its also ambitious because of its surreal style. Fantastic Planet is one-of-a-kind, and freaking weird.We are in a sci-fi world. But nothing meets expectations. Humans are dominated by giant blue aliens, kept as pets. These Draags are more advanced than us, but their devices are strange, stuff that'd never be useful in real life. There's hardly a regular moment in the film. Funny clothing, strange customs, nefarious devices, disturbing flora and fauna. In terms of creativity, I believe this is #1.The other elements also compliment the style perfectly. The animation uses both traditional and stop-motion animation, giving the film a jerky pace. The soundtrack is pure 70s psychedelic. An appropriate tune for something impossible to fully comprehend. You get immersed in the experience.However, a fair warning - this movie is the epitome of style-over-substience. The characters are weak, and the message is ancillary at best. If the unusual style doesn't appeal to you, then move on. But for those who love the animated art, its something you need to see at least once.
