The Little Prince review – adaptation of Saint-Exupéry just about gets off the ground

The much-loved children’s classic is given an animated overhaul by the co-director of Kung Fu Panda, but overelaboration means it almost goes down in flamesOne advantage of animation is that you can record a whole new language dialogue track, and no one will know the difference. (It’s like the silent era, when switching out title cards meant it didn’t matter whether the film came from Berlin or Bognor.) So we have the new adaptation of the popular Saint-Exupéry children’s tale, simultaneously presented in two different cinemas at Cannes, in French and English, with entirely different voice casts involved.
