    Terrific animation film that certainly deserved its place amongst American animation; it's a shame that RANGO which was insanely boring, won the Oscar above this delightful, suspense, action-filled, fast paced tale of a little girl in Paris, a cat, a cat burglar, cops mobsters, and devious nanny. SOOOO much going for it! In a short span of time (a mere one hour), it captured my attention & held it as it unweaved its clever plot! Nice to see it supported by some of Hollywood's best: Matthew Modine, Angelica Huston, and Marcia GayHarden who undoubtedly got a sense of its genius before bringing it to life on the screen.
