The history of animated cinema holds some gems that unless you look, you'll never find. Fantastic Planet is one these gems. If you look into more obscure animated features, this one tends to make itself known on most lists. I'm so happy I found out about the film as it now stands as one of my favorite animated films of all time. The animation is in a style all of it's own and is accompanied by a truly FANTASTIC and other worldly score. Not many sci-fi films are able to truly transport you to another world, but Fantastic Planet manages to set a mood with it's style that takes the viewer to a dark and unknown place. I'm not going to dribble on about plot or the ideas the film has, I just wanted to stress the love I now have for this film. Excellent transfer to Blu-ray, looks stunning. Sound was epic in a off-beat way. See this film if you love animation or if you just want to experience something brilliant and different from the world of cinema.

The artistic quality of this sci-fi old classic is remarkable. The aesthetic of René Laloux and Roland Topor is outstanding and especially the landscapes in the background are brilliant. The repetitive psychedelic music works well and Fantastic's Planet allegorical story remains up to date... Contains both BluRay and DVD versions, the soundtrack and a booklet.

La Planete Sauvage is a culmination of beautiful visuals, wonderful animation and a narrative that doesn't suffer a lack of content. It is a true feat in animated film making. It is worth every penny to anyone who appreciates excellent animation and good storytelling. Masters of Cinema, Blu-ray and DVD Combo release is my favourite purchase in a long time. It also comes with a 56-page colour booklet and enough extras to please a curious mind. It comes up brilliantly on Blu-ray but that's not to say it doesn't look amazing on DVD too.

While most anime or manga suffers from the test of the time La Planete Sauvage does not. While the world has experienced the latest financial crisis hat started in 2007/8 and is far from over, the answers why it is instantly come to mind while watching this movie. The upper class (Draags) tormenting all the other species on the fantastic planet....and you can judge for yourself if the planet is fantastic.
