如果你正在犹豫要不要看，我可以告诉你：这是一部把凡尔纳小说变成动态插画的奇特电影，真人演员在绘制的风景背景前表演，配上烟囱、飞艇和齿轮机械，整体像一本会动的绘本。演员们的表情与动作带着默片时代的夸张，恰好契合这种亦真亦幻的调子——尤其是那些会动的机器模型，齿轮咬合的声响比任何台词都更有说服力。画面里每根管道、每个齿轮都带着19世纪版画特有的粗糙纹理，连海底洞穴的岩石都像从旧书页里抠出来的。 如果你痴迷老电影的工艺质感，或者想体验一次“被想象力拽进银幕”的纯粹快乐，这部片子值得你沉浸——它不急着讲什么大道理，反而让你在铁皮怪物和爆炸中，回味起儿时读冒险小说那种心跳加速的兴奋。演员们带着默片式的夸张神态，卢博尔·托科什饰演的发明家，眼神里全是疯子般的执拗；休·唐斯客串的旁白也透着老派广播剧的腔调。演员卢博尔·托科什和休·唐斯在夸张的布景里反而演得一本正经，把探险家面对神秘发明时的狂热与恐惧拿捏得很准。

As its title suggests THE FABULOUS WORLD OF JULES VERNE is an awe -inspiring, meticulous cinematic rendering of the aesthetic and conceptual inventions of proto-science fiction genius Jules Verne, based on one of the famed author's lesser known short stories. However, the real star of the film is the intricate art direction, successfully rendering the visual style of nineteenth century woodcuts and engravings into motion pictures, creating a stylized and surreal graphic world within which Verne’s fanciful tale unfolds. A brilliant scientist, Dr. Roche, perches high above a stormy sea, inventing a powerful explosive, when he and his assistant are kidnapped by an evil businessman, Artigas. Taken by submarine to Artigas' volcano headquarters, Roche is tricked into developing his experiment for evil intentions. The scientist’s assistant, Simon, struggles all the while to free himself and warn Roche. A magical world of baroque submarines and sailing ships, killer octopus, undersea bicycles dazzles audiences as human actors, puppetry, animation and fanciful scenic design interact to create a cinematic experience that is unique by any standards. Mixing slapstick comedy, action adventure pacing and Mélies style film magic, this little known Czechoslovakian gem transcends the juvenile literature at its source to create cinematic art of the highest order....
