Just seeing the poster for this movie, it was drawn in a style that caught my interest. Its drawing style, the way the movie is animated, the atmosphere alone emanates a world of its own. It is welcome to see drawn animation in this decade as a feature length production; it is something that is becoming forgotten in the world of 3D/CGI animation that dominates the box offices in the USA.Whilst it is beautifully animated, the plot is a bit contrived at points which takes away from the natural flow of the story's progression. It's not that I even need to specifically designate what exact scene and exact moment to show the manufactured emotions being played. It's spoon fed to the viewer, showing them directly (not giving them a chance to think for themselves) that the two main characters are the same, that they are forced from their own worlds because they do not fit the norm of their society, that they are all alone and no one is there for them but themselves; by doing those points the pacing feels rushed at times. While there are low points as such, there are strong points too, one being where Ernest has to overcome his own prejudice towards the thought of sharing his home with a mouse. The symbolism, while overt at times, fits in well, building the atmosphere of the movie even further.The last thing that can really be mentioned is the light-heartedness of the movie; how seriously are we supposed to take the movie when it comes to certain aspects in it? Stealing a vehicle (plus the other theft(s) that happen) and not having any repercussions is absurd in our society, but do you really think that is the message people are going to be taking away from the story? No, it shouldn't be. It's simply, "don't judge a book by its cover." That no matter what society tells you what something is to be, you should not have prejudice towards that something.All I can say is if you're a fan of animation, you should check this movie out. While the plot is simplistic at points, it doesn't define the entire movie. 4/5 stars, would recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Warm and wonderful *by W***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 16, 2015* The story is a charming one: An unlikely pair becoming fast friends and, in the end, reach for their dreams, together. It's perfectly chaste, but there's a  Romeo and Juliet  quality about their friendship in the face of objections from each one's family and community - or maybe more of a  Guess Who's Coming to Dinner  feeling, toned down enough for a children's story.It's not the story I'll remember this for, though. It's the gorgeous, painterly animation. According to the extras, each scene had to be animate three times: once for the line work, again for the color, and yet again to put the physics of watercolor paints into each frame. Whatever they did, it works, and works beautifully. The watercolor feeling gives this a gentle feel, and ties the imagery together into a unified whole. Even more, though, it gives an expressive range that normal animation can't approach: dense, dark cellars, busy city scenes, or lone characters as the sole mark on the page. The artistic crew really got it, and made it come to life. I can think of only  one other  animation that uses that look and, as much as I love the other, E&C mastered it.As a kid's movie, I imagine it works well - but haven't kid-tested it myself. But, as a distinctive achievement in animation technique, I recommend it to anyone who loves the medium.-- wiredweird ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loved it *by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 12, 2016* Of all the animated films I have seen, this one is definitely beautiful. The art and animation is simple, yet vibrant. The story telling is very good and the voice actors are great. The drama is subtle yet very thought provoking with social commentary and fascism in an anthropomorphic scale. There is a lot of heart to this movie, and YES, I let the waterworks run a little. Watching this movie also made me realized that I missed out on a good movie. Unfortunately, this movie was during the time of The Wind Rises (loved that one), Despicable Me 2 (why did I see that one, but it was okay), and other animated films. This one to me feels like it was left behind, and that I made the pitiful excuse not to see this one yet. Took me like I guess two years to say "Let's give it a go." And now I am glad that I made that choice, though I wished it could of been sooner. Ernest and Celestine is just one of those films you have got to see and share. The message that this movie demonstrates is sound and very powerful. And I like to see animated films with passion and heart that are within the art, the story, and the characters. I love it and I love this movie. Merci, France for giving the world such a wonderful film. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/9177206-ernest-and-celestine-dvd-dvd](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/9177206-ernest-and-celestine-dvd-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
